The 370 cars are very straight forward with the interior panel removal to run wires etc. Other than that, if you like what you hear from the installers and you feel confident I would go for it.

If your car is brand new I would suggest (no matter where you go) to have them look out for the paint. They tend to drape wire and extension cords on the car which can scratch paint. Since mine is new and I am pretty anal about it, I made sure that they were aware that I wanted my paint taken care of.

Good luck

You had work done over there? Me and cousin did the sound install in my old celica but it was a lot of error so it took a while, plus he lives in Hawaii do I'm
Not paying for his flight lol.

Cj sounds used to be one of the best in town when Mr poff was still around.when he passed Jimmy and Johnny didn't do that great and eventually sold it. Now there are multiple locations. I guess the new owners are ok but I wouldn't trust them with my z. Try executive on hilcroft.

9-11... Never Forget!

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the Untied States where men were free." ~Ronald Reagan

Today, here at Camp Taji Fire Dept. we held a memorial and than went to the gym for the Fire Fighter stair climb. For those that don't know about the Fire Fighter stair climb, it was last reported that FDNY made it to the 110th floor before the towers started collapsing. So every anniversary Fire Dept around the world climb 110 floor in full bunker gear as a tribute to the brothers and sisters, 343, we lost on this date.

wow 110 ten floors in full gear, cant even imagine.

Anybody know who does good wheel repair any where in Houston? A place that can color match the stock sport Rays? I got a small chip in one.

With a tool or hose and assisting other down as they were going up. If you've never seen; "9/11" (Click me) I highly recommend renting it!

Not sure, try googling some Houston spots. I know I have seen them around here before.

Heard good things about SAABs near 59. Went there to get a quote once but never had work done. They do intense stuff like fixing crumpled rims and welds. If you just have a chip as in paint chip, Baker Nissan has a guy they can call who goes out there to fix road rashes and blemishes. Call Paul Morgan for that, he fixed JB's road rashed wheel right before a car show last year.

welcome chase, we have a tuesday night meet every week but we dont always bring our z's for those. best bet is to keep an eye here in this section for all events coming up. dansracing is trying to get a katy coffee event off the gound in a week or so. and also look forward to coffee and cars at vintage park on the first saturday of every month and the woodlands coffee and cars on the first sunday of every month.
