Around mid-2008, I had H&R spacers installed by Faxon Garage aka Mach III to the rear of the car.

Jvega, just posted up wheel techniques.. They have had a good following in regard to wheel repair.. They are on the more expensive side but do get the job done... New shops have been updated and format slightly changed..

For the Mach III shop... perhaps a blacklisted shop section should be added to the bottom in red or something. For shops that people have had bad experiences with, and to avoid. Keep it separate from the good shops above.

maybe just move them into a separate list underneath the main one so people don't get confused.

the only thing i am concerned with is... 1 bad experience or 2 doesnt necessarily mean that they are a bad shop...
and hence we having the disclaimer... i wouldnt want to ruin a shops reputation considering that they are a pretty strong force it seems on the norcal g-forums

They've done great jobs on all my cars. They do precut and custom work. While they are more expensive than other companies out there, you really do get what you pay for.

Anyone tried Apex Autobody? They seem to have a good Yelp rating. I need to get my lip painted.

I bought some hardware from these guys for my Vortech kit. They were pretty cool dudes when i went by their shop. Though, i have to admit that their shop was a bit diff from most. It was at a residential house at the time. They did have a nice vette in the back. I think they may have gotten a new location since.

Overall, i give them a thumbs up.
