I went to my local honda stealership to buy some bumper push pins... and I figured you could get a bag of them for a few bucks, since i'm sure they make millions of those...... Of coarse they cost 5 dollars a piece. So i spent 50 bucks on some damn bumper pins:mcry:

Those things break so easy.

I'm missing a few and some only have one or two "legs" left. No problems so far.

If they're crusty spray them with PB Blaster prior to removal and use 2 large flathead screwdrivers to remove them. Works every time without breaking the edges....:mcool:

I tried to return them last night but they wouldn't take them back. They said that I had torn open the bag. The bag comes with a little slit in the back so you can just slide one out without ripping the bag to pieces. They said that I did that and I have to keep them. You I said fuck you, and knocked over a cup of pens.:mangel: and left....

Now burn 'em, BURN 'EM ALL!!! :mrolleyes:

Yeah, I had a feeling they wouldn't accept the return...most places won't let you return "expendable" supplies, unfortunately.
Still, what a buncha dicks.

Lets just say i'm not welcome at Reagan Honda anymore...lol. Not the first time they have pissed me off. Oh well. They lie to you all the time. I drove my "Si" in to look at another "Si" that i saw from the road. I asked if I could possibly test drive the new si, and he told me that they didn't have any at the time. I asked, "then what the hell is that by the road that has "Si" badging all over it?" He told me that I couldn't handle driving a car with that kind of power and that i'm too young to be owning anything like that. I kindly extended my hand and then gently extended my middle finger and said "good day", then drove my car up to the big windows in the front where they could clearly see that I owned an si, and then commenced the 10 second burn out in the lot.:mangel: I guess i'm an asshole...lol

Dude, dealerships suck. You know that when you walk through the door. If you fucked a 2 dollar whore, would you punch her in the face for giving you aids? The burnout will prolly make them want you to test drive the new SI. I understand the frustration and all, but some shit isnt called for, they most likely laughed at you after you left.....bees with honey.

None of them laughed. I watched all of them with there mouths hanging down that I would actually burn out in front of there window. When I drove past the dealership later, they were out there trying to clean my black marks up. I'm impressed they actually got off there ass and did something.

Im just sayin man. All dealerships suck, I sorta thought everyone on here knew that. There not known for customer service after you buy the car. There are better ways to get what you want besides knocking over pencil cups, and killing YOUR tires, mine are khumos, not too cheap, dont know about yours. I wouldn't have watsed my rubber. Although from a wise-ass point of view, it must have been funny regarding the pencil thing. Now you can't even go back there, I mean oil filters(i only use honda oil filters on my car), little shit autozone dont have, you only made it harder on yourself if your in a bind and need the place. The honda dealership I go to has been complete shit service regarding parts, my shit is in....i go to pick it up, they cant find it, or it never came in.....there all the same, but they are the ones with the parts. I have bought cars from Ford, Dodge, Benz, Honda, Toyota, ...and a bike from Suzuki, they all suck. But what I have learned is that being smart about shit, instead of acting like a little kid gets you what you want at least 50 percent of the time. Don't mean to put you down, in all honesty the pencil cup thing did make me laugh a bit. Waste your tires waiting to line up at the track, or in front of your enemies moms house, fuck the dealer, there never worth your energy.

You didnt think my two dollar whore comment was funny though, cmon!

my dealership is pretty rad. I'm friends with some guys there though so I got the hookups. also if you need some OEM honda oil filters try to talk to a guy you know at a local used car lot, he may be able to call the dealer and get you one, and get it at a cheaper price as well.. worth a try?

08-14-2008, 02:01 PM
yea I was on your same shoes thinking those pins are cheap.
I went to Honda parts counter in my local dealership and didnt bother asking the price and bought like 4 - 6 of them. When the sales guy told me the total $ amount I was like WTF!!! :meek:
but I bought them anyway.:mtongue:

I was thinking about how much I spend on those plastic pins the whole time I was driving back home. The next day I was still thinking about the money I spend on those plastic pins and finally decided to return them and bought generic ones at my local autoshop for $5 for 20 pins!!!

Your 2 dollar whore comment was pretty funny. The only reason why I don't care about fudging my reputation with Reagan is because I can drive 20min up the road to Albert Honda in Columbia...
I dont care about tires, I get them for free!!!:whoo: so if anyone needs some just hit me up and i'll let you know what I have... Better yet just look below. Don't have actual pics, but these are what they are...
