more info on PP bolts--Foxxinabox better read this
you are not serious about liking them are you? Aside from Foxx i have not
had any fond memories with MAG. I had one heck of fiasco with getting my
recalled gas tank fixed. Stan (Svc MGR) told me he would not touch my car
and to come and get it.

God Bless MAG. How could anyone not love those guys? I get alot of dirty
looks from them when I drive the Golf up there. I think it blends right in
with the Bently's, Rolls', and Ferrari's.
