Welcome to Mid-A where we have elevated Treadjacking to a high art form.

At least until Steve and Al make it gay...

In the midst of quickly vanishing inspiration, I doubt grammar/spelling matters. I'm done!

Had a good experience with Christian Auto Body in Laurel where I got my spoiler installed. They got it done in less than an hour and did a great job as well. It only cost me $80 too

Had a horrible experience with D&L tinting in White Marsh. Didn't get any work done from them, but they tried to hold me hostage and blackmail me. I'm sure the quality of their work is fine, but their customer service is the absolute worst I've ever seen/experienced.

Xlnt tint down in Owings, MD (NOT Owings Mills) did a hood job with my tint and for a good price as well. The vinyl on my tail lights is starting to peel off, but they are going to fix it for free. Jeff at Xlnt Tint has been very nice and helpful throughout this while process. He's willing to adjust his schedule with mine and even stayed an hour past his usual closing time to finish working on my car.

A couple of us have had positive experiences with D&L. I don't know why they treated you like crap.

I have no clue either, but I thought It would be good to let others know. That way, they can be prepared in case D&L guys want to try something like that again. I will say this, do not give them your car or keys until you work everything out and authorize them to start working on the car. I went in just to get a price quote and they started working on my car without my permission. Then they wanted to charge me for the tint they already cut and were refusing to give me back my car unless I paid them. They did give them back after a little arguing, but not before calling me a jerk and telling me to get the Hell out. Just be careful if you go there guys.

LOL at your car being held hostage, I don't know why you had troubles with D&L, I've had tons of work done there and they used to wash my car every week without any issues. Now tell us the truth Shahid, did the owner catch you looking at his daughter and wife funny? Come on, tell us

I think that misunderstanding might have been the source of your misfortune.

No!

It did get me really angry though. I was probably like 1-2 minutes away from calling the police. BTW, how much did you pay for your tail light? He was asking me $200, which is when I told him that I would get it done from somewhere else. Worst part was that I skipped class to get there on time

birdmanx1 · 06-06-2011, 08:59 PM

I had to ask. I def understand your anger. $200 for headlights is actually pretty darn good since these lights are extremely hard to work on. I don't remember how much I had them done for because there were a lot of things I was getting done.
