It's supposed to arrive in Cali on the 23rd. Who knows when it will get delivered here.

AGD auto glass & tint is where I took my S4 and they did a pretty good job.

I like it a lot. I have black in and out. Orange stitching. High gloss trim. All in all looking nice in black in my opinion. But the car looks super small... indeed is small comparing to M3..

My client advisor called me today, to inform me that it has arrived. I figured yours would be in, as both our vehicles were scheduled to arrive at port on the 23rd? Have you contacted your CA?

He was off yesterday. I'll give him a call today. Did you have any M performance parts installed at port?

Maybe you guys can answer this question for me

I just moved to arizona not too long ago but have yet to buy any private party auto transactions.

From what I've read if I buy a used car through a private seller I don't have to pay any sales tax on it as long as they registered it and paid sales tax on it already?

Is that just within Arizona? or can I buy a car from a private person in say Georgia or California and as long as it has already been registered and taxes paid when I bring it over to Arizona and go to register it the only additional fee's I need to pay are property tax to tag it?

I found a independent guy who does tint and ppf. He’s based out of Gilbert. He has a plotting machine as well. I’ll let you know how it goes, I’ll be the guinea pig lol

How is the guy in Gilbert?

I'm looking for a window tint guy. Thanks.

~Also since this is an AZ thread, any recommendations on tint? I don't want to go too dark but I want protection from the sun before summer comes around again.

I spotted my near twin yesterday (too bad I wasn't in my M2) on the I-10 North, just south of town, around 5:45 pm.

It was great to see LBB in action!

It’s ok. Some of the edges, for example between the door and front fender, aren’t tucked in. I can live with it lol you’re more than welcome to check my car if you want to see what his work is like. Price was slightly lower than the other bigger names in Phoenix area

As far as tint, maybe 30-35%? I had 25% tint on my previous car, and had to roll window down sometimes at night. Ive been doing the fishbowl look on my M2, but my kids are not happy with the sun lol. I’ll eventualy have to do tint.
