hey april ive got one 2008 xb sitting on my lot ,with your name all over it.

 

no lie but there was one day i was driving by a buggie and i saw they had blue glow lights in the buggie lol

 

^ you lie!

 

Dang it! I had a feeling I should look at the lot when I drove by friday evening but didn't see anything. Then there's your post telling me I missed it. I'll stop by sometime tomorrow if I can to take a look. Can't wait! thanks for the heads-up!

so who all is going to tuner evo saturday besides me???

 

im ready for more shady maple grub :D

 

^ I'm still full.

hey guys, were hosting an event at Thompson Scion in doylestown i know its a lil bit of a ride for you guys but i know some of you made it to the Peruzzi show so maybe you could try. its on a sunday starts a lil later than most shows and ends earlier so plenty of time to travel.

hmmm. I took it for a spin today after work. I like it. But I don't love it. Totally. Yet. I will have to wait for the first RS series.

 

i know i saw felix a.k.a the cat out there with you ill let you know as soon as the 1st one comes in. how did it feel power wise? i havent driven it yet.

 

^ haha, yeah, felix got to me first. no worries for you though, I just wanted to drive the thing. I was going to ask for you but then I realized it's better I waste his time than yours!

I thought it felt more like what it is... a bigger box with a tC motor. plenty of pep, no problems pulling out in front of people! :D I didn't give it the ultimate test though... merging. It seemed rev-happy. I don't know, it's a nice drive... smoother ride and more power so technically better than the old one. It feels more like a car to me inside - I sat a little lower and the vaulted cathedral ceiling is a bit lower too. I do love the center gauge cluster - too bad it won't fit in mine.

That spoiler on it is a piece of work!

I did run across a few guys in a tC that were looking me over pretty good. I had to wave. :D

I didn't really answer your question did I? I think I could talk my dad into replacing his Element with one. I'll be interested to hear what everyone thinks!

 

Diehl should put the new xB in tuner evo this weekend.

 

I know I'm talking to myself on this thread but... who's got some recommendations for a tint place? Ray needs some tint... pronto! the black box isn't black enough!

 

i just got mine done about a month ago on george st in york. the place is called ozone i belive. they use lummar tint. i got 15% all around and it cost me $135 with a lifetime warranty.

 

thanks! good to know. what's the legal max here anyway? I know nothing.

 

any legal tint is illegal in pa 70% and higher.15% 35% are all illegal.

 

has anyone here ever seen a silver CF hood in person? Is it silvery or grey? different in a good way or different in a stupid way? the pictures I saw weren't on a car and weren't good enough to tell what it really looked like.

 

I was stopped by a State Police officer and he said anything less then 40% visible is illegal. The tint laws in PA are very subjective and can be interpreted differently depending on the situation... Anyways, I didn't get a tint ticket, he just noted it on my citation for 'failure to obey a traffic device'...(long story!)

I had a guy do my tinting here in Harrisburg. $125 + lifetime warranty. This was almost a year ago so the price may have gone up. He's located near the Harrisburg East Mall.

 

^hey, I remember you! It's been awhile! go ahead and tell us that "long story" rjj! We've got nothing but time and sympathetic ears. lol

It seems weird that something like tint is so subjective but I believe it. To my thought process, it should be very scientific.... 'x' amount of light gets through in a controlled environment, or it doesn't. pass or fail.

Anywho... thanks for the suggestions everyone! It's good to know there are a lot of trustworthy suppliers around. and yeah, I just saw the thread asking about tint in the lancaster area. I'm little slow to view the boards sometimes.

 

I went to their website. They've got your car in the gallery! :D There's pics of a lambo, vettes, merc, etc but yours is one of the few pictures that doesn't say how much tint was used. Gee, I wonder why!
