Counting the days until wheels up.........

I'm sure that they have some good psychiatrists down there, you may need one after the round. LOL. Have a great time!!!!

If any of you guys need some, I can pick up some more before leaving. They carry the full Motul line.
$29.95/bottle 1L

Or we can split a set of 5 bottles to save some coin since our cars only require 2.2L to refill.

I might be interested. What is their pricing on the motul 300v engine oil in 5w30?

And maybe some diff fluid at the same time it would be good to switch out all the fluids this year I think!

I've done the same in the past ordered stuff to a US address and yeah at the time I thought I was saving money but in truth the closest border crossing for me is two hours away so i'm losing 4+ hours outta my day. My time is worth more than that.

Now I understand your border crossing is much closer and there is cheap gas available so in the end for you it might actually work out in your favour.

I just know that @Stav goes outta his way a lot of times to help members out and give them the best price he can. He has gone over and above for me a couple of times and i appreciate it and will continue to do business there.

Grumpy old man.... LOL....

Might be self-serving, but I do agree with this!
We have to charge shipping + taxes + dutie fees + exchange rate (This last one is the worst)

I'm having a hard time with this new exchange rate. The looney is hopeless!

Thanks!

Np, got you covered. Btw, trans needs 2.2L while diff is 1.3. If you want to do both, you'll need 4 bottles. I may go back and get another to do the diff at this point. Same fluid works for both (GL4/GL5 compatible) with good results.

Yowzaa that's a little bit too much for me I'll have to pick them up somewhere else! Thanks though!

Where would you guys get your car 3M'ed around Ottawa ? I want a full front but unfortunately, altough Vlad's SunTek is a better quality, I must save to be able to afford Opticoat but I also need rock protection... Any ideas for good installers in Ottawa ?

I did Xpel at Autotrendz in Stittsville. Did a pretty good job. I got the bumper, full hood, mirrors and they threw in the back trunk lip area. Was about $1600 but I think worth it. The full hood really upped the cost.

Thanks for the offer.

I was planning on swapping fluid for both the granny and diff, so could you pick me up 4 bottles please.

I had partial front, mirrors, trunk lip and door sills treated with Xpel Ultimate at Shades on Colonade for $900. Also received a pretty good install. Not cheap, but has already paid dividends when I drove through some accident debris on the Queensway at highway speeds. I smoked something which struck just behind the fog light bezel leaving a square inch mark. I brought it by Shades to see how bad the damage was. Turned out it was only foreign matter. No damage to the PPF or the car. Amazing. There is absolutely no doubt that it saved me from losing a good chunk of paint and possibly a crack.

Thats the thing, vlad could probably do the same at that price... but I want to opticoat (~450) and clear bra my car for a maximum of 1000$, a price which wont allow Xpel or suntek technology but more of a basic 3M wrap

Vlad advertises opticoat @ $360 on his website. Believe a partial front with Xpel without all the extra bits on the side and rear was $700. So you are definitely in the ballpark.
