Thanks man.

I'll try and come to that NWE meet and let anyone who wants sit in my car. There have been a handful of people who I've met with locally and hooked up with brackets, but I'm not sure if they are NWE guys.

The local deal is $100 cash, so it saves you $14 bucks off the normal deal. I'll install them for anyone local who really wants me to or needs the help, it will just need to fit into my schedule!

Anyone who wants to sit in my car and try them is more than welcome. We don't need to wait for a meet. I work in Redmond and live in Auburn. So I'm up north every day for those on the eastside or in Seattle. And I can hit up southend people on the week nights or weekends.

Send me a PM if you want to get together.

How do you guys repair the damage like dings caused by some brainless people who do not know how to open their SUV doors slowly in the car park?

Will post the picture tomorrow.

I was at the mall once, and I just had my 98 GSX detailed from the ground up. I pull into the mall and knowing me, I parked at the very back of the parking lot. I go about my shopping, I leave the mall about 2 hours later. I walk out to my car and I see a civic parked next to my car. When I was walking towards it, I just thought it was someone who liked my car and was showing respect, i go around to get in and it has a HUGE door ding on the drivers side door. My paint that is silver, and the civics is red, the same red that was on my car. Let me note, When I see this, I am furious. I get in my car, move a few spots over and wait for this jack *** to come out. About 45 mins later this goober and his gf come out. I asked him very nicely what happened, he replyed with, quote "I dont like your car". I then ask, is that why you slammed your door into it? And he replyed with "yup". After 2 anger managment classes I was thinking about how to not get in a sitiuation where I could get into trouble. Then he said, "what are you going to do about it?" All of those self calming things went out the window and I went up to the guy and put him to sleep with one hit, and left.. I was 17 at the time and could of handled it better buy asking for his insurance, but he just kept giving me lip, so I acted out.

Thought I would share my door ding experience.

I don't know why some people are so ignorant about somethings, honestly, i am not an ignorant for some dumb people who think it is ok to ding other's people car when their car is nothing but just a junk. I don't mean to be rude, but there is the sense of logic? If people keep doing this, I think I can go and start racism, stereotype, bias about some people or race.

About my car, I already had 2 dings and I have talked to the owner, this is the third time, I would fight no matter what, because how many time must we give this kind of people chances to trash our baby? I can understand about the space that SUV needs, but can the owner understand how to open the car's door SLOWLY?

you're going to recieve that around here man. i don't know about back in your homeland, but over here ppl don't really care. that's just how ppl over here are. i mean they could careless if it was a door ding cause they figure no one would actually take the time to wait and see who did it.

gotta admit jake. i wouldn't wanna give you lip if i even saw you. i woulda just drove away and ran. hahahaha
