Im looking to get an Optima Yellow Top battery. If anyone has one for the IS300, I would like to know what kind you have? Im looking to buy a new one.

I went to Schucks and Pepboys to see how much. But when they looked up my car. It only listed a Red Top. Which is fine, but not for my electrical draw from my compressors.
If worst comes to worst, I will just pick up a Red Top

The tint is holding up and not fading. He did a really good job on it. The sides are done at 20% and the rear is at 5%. So them lifted up trucks dont blind me. I need a new windshield. Mine is all cracked and chipped up

For the clear bra, he did a good job for the price. When he did mine, he just cut around the edge, like an OEM style bra. But if I do it again, I would rather go to a company that does a full wrap with Aerotect clear bra. 3M will turn yellow!! LineX off of 512 and Pac. Ave. Across from Fox's, uses Aerotect. I would call them up first.

Celebration Park is in Federal Way. Take the 320th st exit. Turn left at the light. Follow that until you pass the Mall and Pacific HWY 99 intersection. then at the next light(BigLots), turn left. You will pass another light and some baseball diamonds. Then you see a big parking lot. Thats where it will be held at.
Im not sure if I am going to be making it to this meet. But watch for me, if you do go

I just went to the place where you got your windows tint, it's called Custom Window Tinting. The place is legit and his shop is real clean. Thanks for recommending his shop. His price is real good for taking door panels off ($245 for all 9 windows of mine). I went to this tint shop called Cool Window Tinting and it was a very clean shop but he was asking 387! Anyways, I am getting my tint done this Monday! Show you pics when it's done.

Didn't have time to make it to the meet, but when is the next one? Is there some kind of schedule on this where I can look?

What a NOOOOOBBB in the lambo, PAY ATTENTION. He was probably too busy boosting his ego when people would stare at his car. I deliver seafood in Seattle as my 2nd job and I can't beleive how many STUPID F'IN DRIVERS there are. I wish I had power windows in the Astro van so I could yell at twice as many people.

Mark- No I didnt go to opening day..well, I was there, just not in the ballpark. I was on my delivery route and I drove past the stadium a few times as the game was starting. So I saw all the Mariners spirit walking on the streets before the game, and I was circling the stadium, I just never got to go in Kiro 710am was my home opening day experience.

There is a Interstate Battery that stocks all of the Optima's in South Everett, its off of the 128th street exit. (I'm sure if you google it you can find it) You can compare them side by side with the red top and see what is going to work for your application. Their prices are really close to internet prices, even after tax.
