Yep, my mistake. I believe the discount was on products but not services.
-
I think Darryl only gives discount on service and not products. Last time when I took my car in for a two-step detail I got a member discount (10%) but not on the cleaning supplies I bought.

Hey Joshua, I might be able to use your help in decorating a interior wall using reclaimed wood. Can you PM me your email address and we can discuss further?
Cheers,
Denny

Ali,
We should schedule a lunch break for Wardel. Otherwise he will likely have to work non-stop from morning to evening.

GreenCactus said:Here's a link to the FAQ page on tint laws in this area:
http://dcmetrominis.org/forum/topic/4628-what-are-the-state-laws-regarding-car-window-tint/
Cricket was originally a DC resident, but I wanted tint, so I had it done VA legal (50% all around - I didn't want it darker in the back). I never had an issue with the DC police, but I didn't do anything crazy, either. Now that she's an MD resident, I'd love to get her retinted to 35% all around, but it's expensive (and time consuming) to remove the old tint.
Yeah, I am thinking about the 50% all around for mine because I too dislike uneven tint between the front and back. Wardel said some people choose the 40% as a compromise between 35% and 50%). Of course this means you will probably get a ticket if you get pulled over.

I am very excited. I know my kids complain of how bright it is in the car....
Are there different degrees of tint that he can do? Or is it all the same?

I don't know about Maryland, but in VA you can't go darker than 50% in the front and 35% in the back. (FYI, 50% means the tint allows 50% of light coming through. That also means that 35% offers darker tint than 50%).
I spoke with Wardel yesterday and he said he also offers 40% tint, but if you choose it for the front windows and you get pulled over, you will likely get a ticket.

There is a Navy Marine Corps Thrift Store (31 Alder Rd, Annapolis, MD 21402) that is eight minutes away from the restaurant. They are closed on Saturday and have plenty of parking.

Alex,
I have been to that restaurant before and I totally understand the limited parking space situation that you had described. Still we can work around this by finding a nearby public parking lot and carpool to the restaurant, right? Just an idea.

If that swaybar fit an R53, it would already be sold.... dangit.... lol
Which one are you referring to? (New) front sway bar by ST Suspensions or (used) rear JCW sway bar?

Price dropped for quick sale.

Hi folks,
I am going some spring cleaning and need to get rid of some new and used suspension parts for my Gen 2 mini.
#1
ST Suspensions front anti-sway bar kit
Condition: brand new
Asking price: $125
I bought the front anti-sway bar from ST Suspensions about two months ago but changed my mind on installing it. It is brand new and still in original bubble wrap. All parts included with purchase.
For reference, here's the link to the manufacturer's website:
#2
Mini Cooper R56 JCW rear anti-sway bar OEM
Condition: used (22K miles)
Asking price: $50
Recently replaced my OEM rear anti-sway bar (17 mm) and now it is looking for a good home.
#3
NM Engineering adjustable front and rear anti-sway bar links
Condition: used (3 weeks, roughly 800 miles)
Asking price: $300
Put them on for roughly 3 weeks but decided to go with a different brand. MSRP is $260 (front) $170 (rear).
For reference, here's the link to the manufacturer's website:

http://www.nm-eng.com/290/0/0/1463/nm328856-nm-eng-rear-adjustable-sway-bar-link-kit.html
Thanks for your interest. Feel free to contact me at 703-5 ZERO 7-8878.

Welcome to the forum! Hope to see you at the next meet and greet event.

I am planning to bring my JCW to P-Tuning for coilovers/rear sway bar/links install. Were you happy with their work?
-
Just got my car back from Darryl. He did a two stage detailing with swirls removal. Love his work. Worth every penny.
FYI, he also rents out his lift for $10 an hour if you want to do install/repair over there. Darryl has the basic tools if needed, but you should bring your own just in case.
Thanks Darryl!

Wish I could join you guys. Have a safe trip and take lots of pictures.
-
Cool. Looking forward to it!
-
Just to be clear, we are talking about the Springfield location, right?
-
Actually, you can always start with tire stickers

Steve,
P-tuning doesn't do any software mod for mini. Another place to check is Mach V, which is out in Sterling. I have also heard a lot of good things about doing the stage 1 Manic mini tune:
http://www.minidynamics.com/Manic-MINI-Stage-1-Tune-p/mini-stage1-manic-tune.htm
From bang for buck perspective, I think this is very high on the list. BTW let me know if you ever want a JCW intake. I am thinking about swapping it out with a K&N so we can definitely work something out.

I recently paid a visit to MOS and my experience couldn't have been better. I brought my '13 fJCW in for OEM parts install (GP rear diffuser and underbelly pan). My advisor, Jack Conate, he was super helpful from beginning to end. Since I am new to Mini, I had a lot of questions about operating the car/how-to. Jack was very patient throughout the process. What's more, he gave me a very good discount on the labor because there was some unexpected delay on the OEM parts. While it was a minor inconvenience, MOS had made significant effort to let me know that I am a valued customer.
Hope my feedback helps.
Need r53 6 speed. ASAP
