Good luck.... I just got my summer wheels on but failed miserably at getting my new sway bars on after 3 hours. 3 seriously unbreakable bolts plus my jack broke......SUCKS. Need to get a new jack + bigger breaker bar and try again... ;-(

Still down for the movie though, my girlfriend + other guys should be coming out.

Sorry to hijack the conversation, but I saw black 09 RX-8 (mine is black 09, too) in 347 twice this week, around 9.30am on my way to work. Anyone in this forum ?

Country has three full-time Mazda mechanics, who have all been there for many years, and does excellent mechanical and body/paint work.

I was especially impressed with the paint shop retouching up my rear bumper. Both the color match and the mettallic pattern matched up perfectly with the rest of the car.

I would suggest that you write a note to the attn. of the tech as to what you want done to the car, and leave it taped to the steering wheel. I believe in direct communication with the tech.

Also, they have a very nice waiting room with wi-fi. Watch for the tech when he approches your car in the parking lot, and talk directly to him. You'll make a new friend.
