Default I hate old people

I went up to a car shop a couple of days back to ask them how much it would cost to put my Greddy on. (Before you say why don't you do it... I don't have the tools with me here and don't have a place to work in.) My usual mechanic is 45 minutes away and I'd rather get it done locally if I could. So anyway when I went to the local shop here the guy said if I had everything it wouldn't be more than $45 or so. So I go in today to see if they have any openings for next week and I encounter grandpa.

Me: Hi I came in last week and spoke to one of your guys and he said he could put my new exhaust on for me.
Grandpa: What kind of exhaust?
Me: Its a Greddy Evo catback exhaust.
Grandpa: Who makes it.
Me: Greddy.
Grandpa: Who?
Me: Nevermind who makes it do you guys have an opening next week?
Grandpa: Those exhausts don't fit.
Me: Yes they do, ever heard of factory replacement?
Grandpa: I've been in the business for 30 years and I am telling you they don't fit.
Me: Well let me tell you I've done it on 4 other cars and they work.

Then I left because grandpa was really starting to piss me off.
