Don Dean Metrotown Collision in Burnaby, 50 years in business...and they won #1 small business award in BC. I got my car done and am totally satisfied.

Starlite is another good one but I like Don Dean better, prices are higher there though(but ICBC paid for it)

Bert's Auto in WHALLEY

They do work on my rear end. Full Spool/Axle/Ring&Pinion and c-clip eliminator installs. Also they worked on Prelusion's ride and he had good words to say about them.

They also worked on my buddies car which is why he recomended them to me.

Also Dan @ Target Muffler in Port Kell's did GREAT custom exhaust work for my car.

True dual 3" piping bent and fitted w/ perfect welds for $200 cash. he also welded in some O2 sensor bungs to my headers for free.

Dan Wakefield at Wakefield Engines does all my machine work.
Super good guy to deal with. This guy knows all engines, from stroker V8s to our "super hondas" as he calls em.
He listens carefully to you and does great work.

Dave, you should add Joseph to the list for his experience in passing cars for aircare.

I'm gonna go with Accutech in Richmond for repairs. They do a great job and they're cheap too. Also if it's nothing really major like a loose connection you didn't see they only charge like $5 in labor.

This is where find Dan at Target

The place has changed a bit.

It is now known as Port Kells Brake and Muffler, aka Automotive Performance Centre aka Port Kells Rod and Custom Shop.

Port Kells Brake & Muffler Limited
96 Ave, Langley, BC V1M2S6
(604) 888-3515
add to My Directory

Ask for Dan. Tell him you are a friend of the V8 Fiero guy, he will laugh. The entire time I was there helping him finish up my car, it was funny, we cuss about it, and laugh at the same time. 4 ft of pipe took almost 5 hours to bend it up.
