Hey DChaps, are you going to the PhillyMINI Meet 08?? We just signed up and it looks like fun. You should do the same, it's in about two week.
I just became a member!

It does cost $30 annually, but some of the local dealers will give you 10% off parts, accessories/supplies, and service when you show your member card. Plus if you go to any PhillyMINI events that have a $5 fee, the fee is waived. So the annual "cost" easily pays for itself

Besides, the fee is put to good use; it costs money for the events to be put together, and from what I hear, PhillyMINI is one of the best run, best-organized MINI-event groups there are.

my brother was a member of Philly Mini before he moved down to Atlanta. I am not a member, I don't see how it makes sense to pay to be in a club, so that I can to drive to an event and pay to do whatever we do there haha. Maybe it's because i'm English and from Yorkshire so money does not easily flow out of my wallet.

how much and whats the warranty? I found a closer one near me on Bustleton Ave in Philly...Car Pretty is the company. Llumar tint, lifetime warranty, 170 installed.

A guy just down the street wanted 180 and one year warranty. I don't know what brand film he was using.

Both used computer controlled cutting if that matters. I think I'm going with Car Pretty as the guy seemed like he hustled and didn't seem like a hustler. ;)
