Recommendations of places to go to get parts/work done in So.Cal

sensi09 · 05-31-2009, 02:37 PM

PrecisionZ in Canoga Park Home Page and Corner3 Garage in Lake Forest gets lots of recommendations.

For dealers, I like Performance Nissan in Duarte and West Covina Nissan.

Westend Alignment in Gardena does great work, but need an appt roughly two weeks in advance.

Of course everything is far from me, so I was thinking about checking out SP engineering in the City of Industry SP Power index if I don't go to the dealer.

Any of you guys have experience with the sponsoring shops in this forum?

Anybody have a recommendation for a dynomat place? Although I'm not too bothered by the ambient noise, I always call my fiancee daily on the way home from work, since I work a swing shift and she's a doc who has to get up early. The call quality on the bluetooth in the car with the iPhone is...let's say...not the best. So I'm looking for a way to quiet the cabin a bit.

I'm also curious if anyone has an opinion on what to dynomat (rear cargo area, wheel wells, firewall, doors, etc...). I know that on my 350, the dynomat had a moderate effect, but not as much as I had hoped for. After perusing this forum, I know there were a few threads focused on the wheel wells, as well as a few people saying that the rear cargo area is a good starting point...

He gave me and my friend a deal because we did my friends Lexus RX400H and my Z. I did Best Quality Tint : GRADES : 7 on the back, 23 sides, and 70 on the Windshield. . I haven't got my pictures out of my phone on to the computer so I will post before and after pictures up soon.. Hope this helps you guys here in the LA Cali area if your looking to tint the ride ...

No I don't mind. They did my whole car for $170 which was pretty good considering I went to a few other spots where they were charging me an ARM and a LEG for the same quality tint .. Other places quoted me $195 just for the sides and rear and an extra $150 for the windshield. Don't get hustled !!! This place gave me exactly what I wanted and wasn't pushy and didn't try to upsell me on other products... Also, they all have their cars parked in the lot to use as examples to show customers and they let you watch and wait for other cars to get done if you want to see how the other cars turn out. Hope this helps ... Good luck !!!

I dont know if I got a good deal. I went with Lumars Formula One "Pinnacle" line with 15% all around (except front windshield).Pinnacle is the ceramic tint for $320 cash from Steve's Professional Tint in Upland. From what I understand it doesnt get any better then Formula One. I would deffinetly reccomend this shop.
