Well 11 eh? lol thats not bad, that means I can go home and shower then.. Soo now to figure out a spot? I like to stay near the main drag as i enjoy seeing cars go by.. But then again its just starting spring come Fridayish.. By the way, if you peeps have time and its nice out and u want to shine up ur cars come by my work at Mr Suds.. Sorry i havent been there long enough to allow anyone free car washes.. Were behind the new strip mall being built on west 67st.. I'm working after 3pm so my baby will be all shiny in the parking lot..

Haha i just might consider coming and washing it there! Do you get some kind of bonus if you bring in business? haha I was thinking the we could maybe meet in the Edgar industrial park which is behind the timmies on 67th. It is a little out of the way of the main drag but we could meet there and the ngo for a cruise??? Just a suggestion...

Ya thats cool.. Its only Monday soo ideas can come flowing in? Kinda funny eh how finding a meeting spot can be kinda hectic... lol no worries.. And no I don't get a bonus if I bring in business but then again we sure don't worry about it due to the fact were probably the best place to wash a ride.. Our bays are clean, our equipment is well takin care of and we don't use crappy cleaning agents!!

Anyways lets pray for good weather and if its cool, remember to dress WARMLY!! heated seats ftw

10pm during the week.. If its quiet you can also dry your car off inside as well and do any minor detail if you wish.. So ya when you finish washing or vacuuming go pay asap as youll be dinged for extended time! My bosses are great guys and super friendly so ya..

TIP: don't use the big ass bays, first there 80cents a minute and really powerful and not recomended for cars.. Our small bays are 70cents a minute.. I can wash my car for like $5.00 but then again its almost a science..

Sorry I'm rambling on but when you see the eye candy that also washes thier vehicles it makes the wage worth it

i washed my car at mr.suds today met ernie there. I was happy with the price and bays. Car looked good when cleaned up. damn rock chips though i miss having a new car haha.

k yeah i know what place you are talking about. i havn't been there yet. might try it next time.

So yeah i just sent money for a bunch of parts from MRZ performance and should be ordering the rims by the end of the week. So pretty pumped. Oh and if anyone knows of an extra supercharger someone might have for sale let me know. I'm looking to polish mine and well would down time by having a spare to polish up?

i'm not 100% sure what all tools i'm going to use but we have air tools at my works shop in nisku. And well i could use them with the right attachments to get into the small and tight areas. otherwise even some sanding by hand . but you must start with a rough grit then work your way up to a fine grit. then ots of polishing. As for the attachments for airtools or dremels i'm not sure what to exactly go with yet. don;t know if the little flap wheels come in all different grits only seen 80-200 grit.

If anyone has suggestions to i am open to help. but i have to wait to see if i get a s/c soon.
