DTM was not my greatest experience... Overcharge, had to go back and forth, they start to give you a price - then add an option or two or three and next thing you know the final price you pay is some ways from the original, I had an IPod Touch stolen from the car, they didnt get the paint done the first time, the install fitment wasnt the best, car is making some sounds since the install, the interior is dirty - people with dirty hands/shoes/clothes left marks on my frost interior.

Overall I was not too happy, and I felt ripped off. For the money I was expecting a way better job. They are amateurs charging prices of experts. David was nice to deal with, until he sent me over to the "parent company" at M1 (where Rey, David's brother is in charge). So as I mentioned, a lot of back and forth from Glendale to El Monte... GOT VERY ANNOYING. Especially with traffic.

I was going to give my business to another shop, but the price was too high. So I went over to DTM/M1... Little did I know some added charges here, some extra stuff there, and the prices were identical - and I KNOW THAT THE OTHER SHOP WOULD HAVE AT LEAST TAKEN GREAT CARE OF CUSTOMERS. This is just a warning rant, the entire experience was annoying and left me half satisfied. The paint match was great, the second time, but thats about it. As stated earlier the fitment was average, but with it came some awkward noises when I drive the car.

A service gotta be professional no matter what, what you mean "you gotta know the peeps there". Thats a joke. These guys charge like they are Class A work, but they are not. Will you be satisfied? Maybe. Im just laying own my experiences.

the night turned out well especially when Mikes parents came out and laughed with us hahahah

DTM does great work but if you have connections you have a better chance of them taking EXTRA care of your car. As for things getting stolen/interior getting dirty i have no explanation. I've left my car there for like 2 weeks and my ipod etc.. was all left alone.

Matt hit me up and ill personally go with ya to DTM
