If you still need a place to go, let me know. I can direct you to a place that basically doesn't check a damn thing. I don't even think they have a reader for tint. I have 35% in the front and some places I've been to will measure it to be sure but this place doesn't even do that. Also, it's in Arlington and they only charge $35.

Would anyone be able to help me install rotors, pads, and stainless steel brake lines by chance? Ethan, whatever happened to that brake install day? If there are more people that need to do the same, maybe we can make it into a meet.

You've gotten yourself into a whole load of fun. From what I remember, you have a set of brakes that you still need to install that you have had sitting around for quite a while

Not sure if anyone is doing Starbucks this Sunday, but I get off work at 10, so I can swing by afterwards if anyone wants lunch.
