List Of SoCal Shops!!!!
just drove here from pennsylvania and i have a REDICULOUS lifter/valve tap noise going and its DRIVING ME NUTS!!! where can i go in the San Diego area to get a decent price on a engine swap with mid-low miles. i have an 03 touring edition. thanks in advance!
anyone, anyone? shop that will possibly buy my engine for a project car and install a new one??
If I am looking for a fair price to get my G35 aligned, w suspension tightened + tuned will Precision Z Services be the place to look at or other shops in the area that will do the same job at a lower price or a better job at the same price?
ed & the rest of the team at precision z will take care of you.. ed's been working on z's for like 30+ years. it's not the cheapest but i'm a firm believer that you get what you pay for. he & his guys care about the cars & they care about their work.
also... so i got into a little idiotic accident (don't ask.. i'm pissed at myself) and need a new front bumper plus a little touchup work on the hood (very minor scratches) - i've always liked the amuse front bumper (i'd go with replica) so i need a shop that'll paint & install but that can also figure out if there's any other damage to the car once they take off the bumper. i got my insurance assessment but if there's other damage we can always ask for more $$

so yeah.. suggestions? i'm in the eastern 818 area - glendale-burbank-pasadena-la crescenta & i work in hollywood. i have some shops/people in mind (yes, i've thought of makito & shine) but wanted to see if anyone's had any great experiences with shops in the 818.
thx all
lmao i came back here to post the same damn question. anyone?

Makito is another good choice if you don't mind the wait, because he takes FOREVER from what I've heard. A few of my friends got price quotes from him and ended up not going to him because of how long it would have taken. Just ask Mike (Harout) about that.
ZOMG you're back on the forum!!!! I went to DTM in El Monte when I got my V2 front bumper and they did a really good job on painting it. The only thing is that DTM is a hit or miss kinda place. People either have really good experiences with them, or rather bad ones. I got lucky with them I guess. I believe they also have the Amuse replica bumpers in stock if you just want to buy it from them.
