The first 3 months it has gotten dings, and scratches and I even had a bull's eye on the windshield.

WORST: 2 weeks ago this woman in a 2007 325i hits me from behind at a left turn! Her reason: I could have break for you, but you were not supposed to be there... and now I have to do the insurance cha-cha!

I think this qualifies for "being pissed off".
I have been bumped before and most people are like, hmmm the damage does not seem that big... and I'm going whazooo...

yeah i know what you're feeling...

You are probably reffering to my earlier post re: bull's eye on my wind-shield, right?

There are actualy 2 shops in Ajax who do this kind of stuff: one is a detailing shop on Westney South (of 401) near Midas called NuFinish (or something like that) and they quoted me $45 but they could not do it right away 'cause he did not have the resin; the other is on McKenzie, but I forgot the name of it... something with Autoglass and they charged $50... I think they would have charged more if they knew I was going to bring in an AUDI!

If interested I will harvest the names/addresses and pass them along: let me know.

It can be more of a ****-off if you have bad Karma (not Ghia)!
Don't you agree?
lol, i didn't know that was what it was called.

OK, this is where I can't bite my tongue......I beg that you don't support Canadian Tire! They are thieves and prey on women when it comes to servicing vehicles. Who pays over $1000 for front brakes on a 4x4 Pathfinder?? Good thing it wasn't my audi they had their hands on. I'm certain you can find the same product elsewhere.....they've lost my business.

I am with you on Canadian Tire! I am a "guy" and they tried that with me too... but I am also a "car" guy who doe not look it!

I have'n shopped at any of the Canadian Tire stores in over 2 years, AND I AM BETTER OFF FOR IT!

I'd like to see them lose the contract to Transport Canada/RIV in inspecting all imported vehicles......importers should be given the responsibility to choose reliable and honest businesses to deal with. Hmmmm....I just might have myself a new project.

The quality of the work is determined by the quality of the mechanic doing the work.

I use Canadian Tire for purchasing boxes of Mobil1 engine oil when it's on sale
