Charged my AC. It's been pushing 100 lately, AC just wasn't keeping up. Recovered 0.25kg, nearly 50% low. Not sure where it went... it's a '17 with 7000 miles.

Icy cold now. If it dies off again it'll go in for warranty repair. Need a dash cam before that happens though.

Need help from Houstonians. I want to know a good TINT place. My Subaru dealer recommended a place and they are charging me $350 and I think it's too expensive. Thank you.

Gave her a good wash after coming back from a road trip to Austin to watch Chelsea Grin. Once again, incredible driving experience in a lengthy period of time. Felt comfortable and everything the whole way there. Had a couple more trips planned this year, but might not go as I don’t really want to put so much wear, stress, and long miles on the car. Might look into getting something like an older Outback/Impreza or 4Runner. Something I can actually drive in the rain lol what are y’all in when you don’t drive your twin?

$350.00 !?!?!?

Here in my area its $60.00 for a 2 door car and $80.00 for 4 doors.
Never had an issue with my local tint shop and their product is
solid.

I was quoted $380 from a dedicated tint shop with 3m tint.

Went with the tuner shop, lifetime warranty for $285.

Assuming every single car in Miami gets tinted, competition drives prices down. $250-300 seems to be about normal.

Get all the windows and windshield tinted with Ceramic tint and you will pay a lot more than that. But you will never regret it!

Thanks to @86SPEED for hunting down some backordered center caps and lugs — been amazing customer service with all of my transactions!

Super dirty wheels/car, but wanted to get them on right away. Excuse the quick phone pics.
