Inspection costs are fixed by the state. Same everywhere.

Not in MD they're not. When I was trying to get mine done, every place gave me a different price. The cheapest ones are probably all the same, but some places like to bump up the cost. I think I got mine done for like $60. That's for the MD state inspection. The emissions inspection, however, was only $14 and is fixed.

Yeah but you aren't going to chantilly nissan for a MD inspection...

True.. I wanna say I paid over $70 for state inspection on my Z, and for my other car, it was $14, but the State of MD is thinking of raising the costs for that, possibly around $40.

Yeah I know. I got mine at a Nissan dealership though and each one I called gave me a different price. I guess they just have a fixed price in VA.

The state of MD is shady in itself.. lol:bowrofl:

dont have a front license bracket...should i trust Chantilly with the install...i am worries about drilling holes too deep.

I had a great experience with Chantilly sales. Everything was done through email. No phone calls until the deal was done and I was heading up there to pick up the car. There were no surprise charges as I always work with an out the door price.

With regards to the license plate bracket the sales guy pointed out the drilling and asked me if I wanted it done. Glad he asked as many don't. Told him to put it in the trunk and I ordered the Stillen bracket.

Even though there is a Nissan dealer down here in Fredericksburg and one in Woodbridge, I will make the hour drive to use Chantilly.

They do a fine job on it.

I do have a stillen bracket available locally if you would rather not drill the holes.

I did the bracket install as well and it works! I also did not want anyone to drill holes in the bumper. Not that I am going to sell it but I don't think it would look to good in another state with two holes in the front bumper. Guess you could put a vanity plate there or something...

As for a dealer..well I had a great experience with the sales guy at Norris Nissan but not so much with the finance manager...Guy was nice and all. I just did not do my homework before hand so I guess it is part my fault but they ended up selling me a non Nissan warranty. All is good now I have canceled but I am not so sure if I want to bring my car there to be serviced. Has anyone used Norris Nissan West before?

This is a perfect example of why i started http://www.the370z.com/mid-atlantic-...op-review.html

If you get work done, post it there so we know how it went, and can keep it in a centralized thread :)

I bought my Z from Norris. I don't take my Z there for service, though. Jay Region was my sales guy, and he was excellent.
