Please read this Review.

We received this amazing review today on our Google place page. It's not often that someone takes the time to thank us for a job well done; and we really appreciate the people who do, it means a lot and goes a long way to building pride in what we do. 

Congratulations to each and every person at Splashes! You deserve a pat on the back.

Here is the customer review;

"Exceptional, over the top, all around service from all staff involved! I called to get information about replacing my windshield and the gentelman who answered the phone was so friendly and helpful. How can you say no when he said they would provide me with a rental car and have my car cleaned for pickup. The next day I walked into the office with wonderful welcoming staff. It was so easy. When I picked up my car, on my lunch break the same day, my truck had never been so clean, not only outside but inside too. I did not expect my truck to be clean to the point it was. Thank you Splashes for an exceptional job. I will be spreading the word about your windshield replacement service. It was well worth the ICBC deductable. It made it a little easier to pay. SPLASHES is the place to go."

I Phone? What You Need To Know...

If you have an I-Phone and especially if your like me and your still using the now incredibly archaic 3G or 3GS you're probably finding that it's about as fast as molasses and as reliable as a PC.

This may be old news, but I just found a way to make your phone much faster and with a longer battery life! And this trick works for all I-Phones including the 4G.

If you have updated your software to 4.0 or newer, your phone will continue to run apps even though you think you have closed them. Every time you run an app it NEVER turns off! When I tried this trick I had 50 apps running! No wonder the battery only lasted half a day and the thing crashed and shut down constantly.

So, to turn off the the apps on your phone;

  • Click the home button twice
  • A small window will pop up at the bottom
  • Press and hold anyone one of the icons at the bottom of the screen 
  • They will "shake" and have a minus sign in a red circle
  • Tap each icon with the red circle to turn off the app and the icon will disappear

Once you have done this all the apps are still on your phone and ready for use, but they are turned off.

Before you trade in your phone, give it a try and see how many apps you have running. Then go in and turn off your apps every day or so...

Gymkhana Four

The New Gymkhana 4 is out on YouTube. Can you tell who the sponsor is?

I just watched the new Gymkhana 4 and I thought the opening credits were awesome!

Unfortunately the rest fell flat on it's face. Don't get me wrong, the guy is awesome and does what few can.
But Ken Block is my icon and hero and he has set the bar really high.
In Gymkhana Four he does nothing new and nothing all that risky or challenging compared to previous Gymkhana's.
Fancy cameras, props and special effects have nothing on raw talent.
Less time working on the fluff and more time on the stunts!
Just one guys option...

Have a look at Gymkhana Four here http://youtu.be/btViXvIDsi0
