Insurance in Belgium is STUPID EXPENSIVE. I'll just say that moving to SC will cut my insurance payment almost in half! I will be in the area in April.

Yeah I came from Korea to SC. I'll be gone before April. SC is a great area. You have access to several different motorsports, if you're into autox or road racing. Also. The people are great!

I'm down if the weather is nice. This weekend probably won't be the best for a big turn out.

Anyone used pleasant details before by any chance? I just got a clear bra and tint done there last month. Love the clear bra but I will be going back there a 3rd time for them to fix the tint they did. $488 for a full ceramic tint and I still have to go back a 3rd time -_-

I haven't used them but I remember my installer having a tough time due to the windows automatically going up and down whenever you open or close the door.

Might be cold this Saturday but cars and coffee usually kicks off at 0800

Well I had a 2013 genesis coupe with the same mechanism and the tint costed $100+ less. A good tinter should tint well below the door lining, sometimes requiring a door panel removal. I just think its unacceptable that I paid that much for a skimped job. I can snap some pics later to show the tint curling on my front windows. It looks like the tint was rushed and barely tucked into the door.

This is why I have avoided getting my windows tinted. But I know a few guys who used Mr. Tint in West Ashley. They did a fairly good job from what I could tell. It wasn't that expensive either. Like $250 or something.

Failed to mention the genesis tint came out with no problems

I just drove to Orlando and back last week to go to universal studios with the girl friend in the new Z and not a single complaint! It rained a good bit to on the way there. Girlfriend actually preferred the ride over her Honda CRV ^_^ tee hee

The clear bra worked like a charm
