I'm sick of shops in Calgary anally raping for work, install and parts. They all charge $75 per hour and try to tell you that installing a shift knob takes 6 hours :wtf: Mind you they charge you $345 for the shift knob to begin with because who the f@ck knows. Maybe it's lined with gold or something for that price :gay:
I've seen Pro Drag offer decent install prices and good prices on order items like Eibach springs etc :bigthumbup: Stores in Calgary need to die. When i can order Eibach springs from $199 US off the net then why the f@ck would i buy them from you for $450. So next time you bastards in Calgary want to rape me up the ass, at least be courteous and offer some lube so i dont bleed too much! :thefinger: |

Just a suggestion...
But you could drive up here when you have more than just a shift knob needing install (ie springs, struts, wheels, brakes, etc) and have ProDrag/Zippy's sell and install you the parts??? Could it be worth the drive??? |

yeah, that would work, but why would Calgary not have a place like that? Just asking if anyone knew of a place in Calgary because i'm sure there must be a reasonable after market car parts store in the city. Maybe I’m wrong and there isn’t. If i had to drive i would rather spend a couple of extra hours and drive down to the US and have them do everything since they don't force you to swallow down there when it comes to cars
PS i was sarcastic about the shift knob. I think i can manage that one heh |

There is speedtech auto (I think that's the name) and rpm racing in the same complex. Impressions, Autozeal, Silent Rage, and there are more...
Surely you can get a good deal there... and if not, you're welcome to come try the shops in edmonton.
Don't forget, if you're buying outta the us, do it while our dollar is doing well, b/c when it goes back to shit (we'll hope it doesn''t), then the americans shops will be charging us more through currency! |

| ok thanks i'll keep trying. It's just that prices up here in the great white north leave me depressed. I'll just order off the internet and give my business to a US company i guess, as much as i would rather buy locally. But i just cannot support middlemen who would rather make money by selling one over priced $1000 item then 2 fairly priced $500 items you know what i mean? |

try checking out the local calgary forum beyond.ca for good shops.
btw, ive heard good things about speedtech and bad things about impressions. |

| you could talk to the guys at Concept1 and ask them whou they would recommend for your type of car, they deal exclusivey with VWs but they are good at recommending places. |

| Give Millenium Auto Trendz a call. If you buy or get something installed from them you won't go anywhere else. |
