New rims :)

Public apology

Public apology

Jacking up car via control arms =my hero!!!!!!!!!!!

FYI It was an honest mistake,(I didn't know you couldn't do it and I will admit that!!! if I did I would have said something) don't listen to Todd, everyone remember when TODD did a half ass job on my fuel rail?!?!?! and sent me off in a ticking time bomb!?? SPEWING GAS EVERYWHERE!!! I could have blown up!!!


Bagged was/is probably one of the best guys I have ever done business with! He gave me a hell of a deal on the wheels/tires, and is offering to pay for the damage that was done. I do not know about you but I think it is pretty damn stand up!!! Most ppl/places would pull the "uh I didn't do it"


Bagged, I am publicly apologizing, I should have known better than to tell Todd what was up with my car I love him to death one of my good friends but god he runs his mouth and tell everyone on CEG!! and he knows I am not the happiest with him about it right now!!! :mad:

If I had known he was going to be a major ass hat about it, Trust me I would have just said yeah it was bad balance. Sorry bagged, hope we can still party it up at SZ.

Hope you can forgive me!


oh and fyi, the tires ride awesome I am super happy with my purchase!!

On that note I will defend Todd on that fuel rail. That was Mr. Mike.

I fixed it the morning of my exam after you stayed at my place because it wasn't safe for you to drive it.

BTW Mike still owes me money for an engine I gave him 4 months ago...:rolleyes:

And Don't take your car to anyone except for Stazi or Steeda. :o That way you may be able to avoid these situations.

Todd that was great tho...busting that out in the other thread...mad ownage. :laugh:

That part no, but you didn't even tighten it down all the way! all I am saying is you have no respect for friends sometimes. and pete it wasn't mikes fault atleast not all!! for the record, the 1st time around mike forgot to put it on, but when we found that problem, todd is the one who assembled it back together.

I said what I had to say, you can argue with me and pick on me all you want. I just feel bad bagged is getting ripped on, he doesn't deserve it, like I said one of the best ppl I have done business with. You will hardly ever find anyone or a place of business that will break something and take responsibility for it!

hell if a place brakes your stud they try to charge you 50$ to fix it!!! (fwiw firestone tried to charge me about 40-50$ for this!!)

Again Stand up guy, hopefully can do more business with him in the future!

Yea under the TB blind because someone didn't do it correctly in the proper order! I wasn't removing the UIM at that time of night after an entire overhaul of your car. Go find a shop that can do better than me that won't seriously F something on your car. WTF! Next time take it somewhere else. I drove to Lansing to fix it after work if you don't recall. Driving around the entire city! Again, YOU CAN GOOOOOOOOOO F YOURSELF! DO NOT IM OR EMAIL ME AGAIN.

If you or another shop had the wheels off before you take it to that shop and they break it removing a cross threaded lug nut then it's not their fault and if you want them to fix it, you gotta pay. If they're the only ones that ever have your wheels off/break it torquing it down, then that's a different story.

We charged 15$ labor where I used to work. Usually a stud was $1.

Speaking of Spaz's fuel issue I still have that broken O-ring...

Of course every shop is gonna charge something different. We're a corporate owned place so we charge what we have to. I was just saying that just because a shop breaks a stud doesn't necessarily mean it was their fault it broke. Every shop will/has to break studs every now and then.
