Well at least you can drop by Jones anytime for a free car wash. I suggest you go three times daily for the next six months.

I am in California Newport Beach. The $650 was just part off the bad news it turn out that they put in a deffective fuel filter so i had to go back one more time to get it replaced again. Also my left side skirt needed 2 new clips they told me that the whole thing was broken and need it to be replaced and when i got it back it was held with tape. I decided to try to fix it by myself and it took me less then five minutes to fix the clips and it looks perfect.
