Yesterday, I drove past John Eagle Acura on my way to check out some furniture stores. I'm tempted to schedule an appointment; hopefully they can't screw up a simple oil change?!?!?!?
Just to follow-up on my initial post in regards to recommendations for dealerships with good service...

I finally got my oil changed at John Eagle Acura on I-10 near Katy, and I was satisfied with their service. Didn't have to schedule for an appointment, just drove in, and got out in approximately 40 minutes. Oil change was about $40 after taxes and fees. Again, overall fairly satisfied (but I didn't have huge expectations to begin with).

I've read great reviews on Executive Motorsports (Executive Motorsports - Car Tint $75 www.XMHOUSTON.com (713)977-1111). There's a location right off of I-10 on Gessner Rd, which should work for you. I'm planning on stopping in sometime to get some info and a quote.

BTW: do you know what kind of tint you'd want?
OMG!! if only ive heard about this place before I went through with it. x.x
I think Ill go this summer when I get my suspensions done.
This time I know what to do, 35% front; 10% rear windows =D

I checked out the place a couple weeks ago. The guy suggested their Blackmax metalized tint. I came home, and couldn't find much information on the 'net on the Blackmax brand. I think I'll go with 30% all around.

Also, the guy I spoke with didn't know anything about moleskin. I'm a little concerned.

Thanks. I went with cypresswindowtinting.com in Katy (Fry & FM 529). Troy's a really nice guy. Went with Madico Advanced Ceramic 4000. I didn't want it looking too dark. That Madico AC film looks really classy on the CGP. Little expensive but good IR rejection (67%), excellent clarity from the inside, and lifetime warranty. I came back 3 weeks later and had Troy put Wincos 40 on the 2 front windows on my wife's Jeep. Wincos is made by the parent company of Madico. 82% IR rejection and as good as Huper Optik film. Cars are ready for summer!

Edit: Troy's a one-man shop. He isn't familiar with the moleskin for TSX gaskets but he said he's done other TSX's before and they never came back with scratched film. He agreed to replace my film once for free if scratches occur from the gaskets. Troy main business is home window tinting. He also tints new cars for a Nissan dealership. Be careful with metal films. They cause bad AM radio reception, sometimes bad GPS and radar operation. This is why I went with ceramic film.
