    I had their "master" tech install my audio system. When I got it back, iPod wouldn't play, radio didn't dim, head unit was misaligned and my window wouldn't go down all the way.

    6 hours of my time later I corrected all of my problems myself. Worst $100 I ever spent.

    YUP! I'd trust ANYONE in our group before I trusted Best Buy!!! As far as Tidewater... I never said they were inexpensive... but I really believe with them... you get what you pay for. Their installers stick around a long time too. Same guy has worked on my electrical 3 x's over the course of just over 2 years!

    Anyone have work done at Tread Quarters?

    They charge $109 for front brake pads. Sound like a good deal?

    I haven't found time/help to do the job.

    I just called them about possibly powder coating my rear bumper that is coming in. Still up in the air. I had my front bumper powder coated from BAMF. I don't have time to paint it and wait. I want to install that janx right when it comes in.

    How well do those hub centric spacers work ? I had regular 1.5 spacers before when I had my 16s and I hated them. No matter what I did It always felt like I had a tire out of balance

    I know what you mean about the wait. It's like watching paint dry. I am painting Loco's old bumper as we speak. I was really happy with their (Percision's) work, took about a week. That was the only downside.

    Possibly, I might have to go to Richmond Friday and Saturday, be back sat night. I live in a condo so I can't host a mod day. Jearatbp wait until loco gets back from sea. We'll see if he can host one. I think he gets back in a week or two. I still have a list to do on my truck.
