Hey guys heres a little quirk that I noticed. I opened up coconutbattery to check out my battery status. Currently as seen in the picture the battery capacity is at 94% after 36 charge cycles. Is this normal or should I bring it in and have the battery replaced?

The health status shown with Coconut may not be 100%.

My MacBook (early 2008) has over 100 cycles and still shows me 100%, but on the other hand my MacBook Pro (Unibody, Oct. 2008) shows me I have 96% health after 58 cycles.

As long as it doesn't drop below 80% before you hit 300 cycles there won't be much chance for an exchange.
But if an Apple Store (or authorized reseller) is near you, and you don't mind going there, it's always worth a try.
