After seeing recent activity and posts about fellow members looking for help in basic installs and more, I have created this thread.
I am going to keep any eye on this thread and clean it up when posts don't meet the criteria of what is asked.
So to all the mechanics/non-mechanics/car inclined people please post up your info if you are willing to help.

Once we get some people to post up, I ask that you communicate with the person through PM's. Once the transaction has occured you can post up reviews, ect. Please keep "can you call me"/logisitics/ect to PM's please.
Sounds like a good idea and can help create a little revenue for those looking for work.

Just wanted to let you guys know that i enlisted Glex25's services to install my Tein S-Tech springs yesterday. He was very friendly, did an excellent job, and was very careful with my car and rims. I would use him again and recommend him. He went so far as to follow up with a call later on in the day to make sure I was satisfied with the work. His prices were also very fair.
