Ahh not the center of it like you are, I'm down in the wyandotte/southgate/woodhaven area. edit: about a 45 min freeway drive south of detroit off of 75...

So its just a badge that says HO? thats wierd, why would they do that? LOL. Thats like having a NOS sticker with no tank, or nitrous.

Wyandotte, nice man, i have a detailing product supplier that lives there.

Yeah it was just a marketing thing GM did, tried to make the car more exciting or something. Its the same engine.

Hell yea I love the area, to a certain extent. Had to fix this due to typos. Hey, do you know anyone in the area who has a good deal on window tinting?

Right on right on. So do you detail or do you sell products as well? I do believe I rad an article on your polishing skills once. How much do you usually charge for detailing?

I just talked to him and he said any shop in the area is gonna be close to the same price. Your lookin at $175-$225 depending on how many windows and what kind of tint. As far as quality they are all pretty much equal.

Nah man, i just detail on side for extra money and my own amusement. I dont really like to be called a detailer honestly, paint correction is more my game. I mean anyone can wash and wax a car or vaccum it out and wipe down the dash :lol:

Price always depends on the vehicles condition, vehicles size and what you want done. It can range from $150-$500.

Members of gaoc and gagt i give a pretty good deal.
1. let me take pics for my personal portfolio and internet display (personal info kept private of course).
2. Buy me a 12 pack of beer
3. Pay for product usage $20-$40.

HO stands for High Output, but as coupe said, there is no difference, except a bigger exhaust diameter i believe...and the fancy badge. lol.

To coupe: I think on the back windows I'm going to go a 5% and on the front two im going to go 35-40%.....


To Grandam1999v6: LOL, a larger output on exhaust? that would free up slight amounts of backpressure, and *maybe?* make it sound slightlly throatier. wierd. Def. doesnt earn sucha badge though with only exhaust differences none the less. :/
