    Icon14 FIY Garage in Charlotte<- TGC Exclusive

    Okay guys... Here is a TGC exclusive offer. I know we like to work on our own cars (I love nothing more than to work on my G), and here is a great place to do it. They have two lifts, and a few flat bays to use, and all you have to do is pay for whatever time you use.

    I have personally helped them, and it is a great environment, and I work on my G there.

    If you want, when we meet up I can give everyone a free coupon for an hour of bay rental, or if you you call in for an appointment/ bay reservation and mention the word GRACE you can get the free hour that way, too.
    (Ends 1/31/11, though. More to come :]) You can't use both, but hey, come check it out.

    All the tools you might need are there, including several tool sets with all of the ratchets, sockets, etc. All but power tools. There are air hook-ups available, as well as transmission jacks and whatnot.

    Also, there is access to AllData for you to look up diagrams.

    I think I covered it all, if not i'll add more to it later. Maybe in the future we can get a weekly cruise-in going or something just to hang out, and do whatever.

    Here's some info:

    If you have any questions, please PM me guys.

    Thanks!

    It's helpful dude... I'm surprised at how many that haven't been used. Having a lift is a true godsend

    i agree. how much was the startup cost and everything as it would really work around here for all the honda owners and even myself.
