H&R is kinda far from me.

Have you heard anything good about maxwell collision? The nissan dealers use them as their body shop. Just wanted to make sure the car was brought back to factory spec.

H&R is highly rated in the G community. They worked on my husband's 350Z and the color match was spot on. They also make sure to only use OEM parts. Since you have a PW, I would trust them with the paint match. I used Calliber Collision for some work and while the paint matched, it wasn't as clean as it could be.

I've never heard anything about Maxwell.

PW is difficult to match. I would take it to H&R.

If you haven't signed up for Nismo Fiesta yet, you're running out of time! This is the first time it's held in our backyard so it'd be nice to see Austin making an effort.

I think I can make it but it doesn't seem like there's anything to pay for. I don't need dinner on Friday. I won't be able to participate in the track or cruise events on Sat. And I won't be entering the show on Sunday. So can I just come park and observe?

Pintsize725 · 05-08-2015, 11:40 AM

I believe so.

Guys, where can I snag a Front and Rear Bridgestone Potenza RE50A? I need single tires since the body shop replaced both on the driver's side. The ones on the passenger side need to be replaced too since the fronts are at 6/32" and the rears at 3/32"

Any recommendations on just getting single pieces besides tirerack? Really don't want to pay spend so much money this month on tires >_< (replaced the tires on my other car as well).

JARblue · 05-08-2015, 04:54 PM

Insurance isn't paying for that?

Seems a little ridiculous. I would have told the shop to fuck off paying for the stock tires on one side if you needed a whole new set anyway. Such horse$hit they didn't inform you of this before they replaced the ones on the driver side. If you have to pay for half of the set, I would tell them you want different tires. The ones they mounted should be unused and easily unmounted. You can get better tires for cheaper than the damn RE050s. They suck in the wet and only mediocre dry performance for an extreme street tire IMO. PSS are far superior and less money. Or the S-04s are sooo much cheaper and way better in the wet and at least as good if not better when it's dry. Just my

You went to the Nissan place, right? They might be dicks about it. That would be pretty standard affair for Nissan

Should have gone to H&R.
