Even some of the smaller airports with the rentals right at the terminal do this.

Hard to believe Des Moines is COMPLETELY sold out, but that's what they're telling me. Avis will be catching a ton of shit from me for this one, including social media. May not do any good, but lets me vent.

This is NY bumpers don't count, no one has an undamaged bumper. Umm ok.

Then we see these big rig mud flap things hanging off peoples cars. WTF? that's a bumper saver [facepalm]

I agree with whitewalrus on this.
Even those 1000+ each wheels retail are running 25% of the priced used on Ebay. It took me 6mo to sell all 4 wheels when insurance changed all 4 of my wheels on comprehensive. I told insurance company that I wanna keep the old wheels. They said they are okay with it.

Any recommendations for a shop to get window tint done in the centennial/Littleton area? Just need to match my untainted driver and passenger front windows to the rear factory tint. What’s the going rate around here? Only place I have actually spoke to some one so far is lynx wrap in centennial and they priced me at 127$
