I hope you're not paying them to change your oil.. if you are, you're getting ripped off, I can show you how to change it yourself.

I had a meeting at 9 and was running behind so I was in and out of there in less than a minute or two

I was probably gone by the time you got there. Definitely no other Zs there when I pulled into Service.

Oh I guarantee they don't pay more $100 for both. Just laughing at the retail price.

Also glad I didn't listen to the haters and kept them. In tandem with the blacked out headlights the car looks mean as hell

Yup, that sounds about right. Its a total ripoff, they make a lot of their money off accessories and services.

Yes this shop seems like they know their stuff. REALLY good price and they're throwing in halos and chrome blinker bulbs for super cheap. On top of that, they're going to do it all in about a day, clean up my sealant mess and moisture test the lights before reinstalling.

They're also going to break down the remaining parts for easy sale after they're done.

Nah, I'm good with oil change and I even installed two oil coolers myself, don't need them to do my oil change when it's ran out. The thing was I ask them how much to change my transmission and differential oil, they said about $200 bucks labor only, and I when to my friend's shop did all myself in less than 30 min.
edit.....I highly recommend to change your transmission fluid if you can. I can feel the gears so much better than it was.
