I checked out Designo's site and they did some sick work on some cars. Not sure how fair the pricing is tho. Is SR usually priced up since they mostly work on exotics? Posted via RS Mobile | |

Posted via RS Mobile | sorry, i totally forgot how much it cost me, but i came in with my shocks already purchased so i just paid for labour. I do know that the prices are equal or less than what you'd pay at pretty much any shop, so it's not too big an issue

Johnny had been in business for 20 years and not only does he fix cars, he races them too. He was once an autox champion before....
Cosmetics wise, try Andrew @ Hugh auto body. Andrew used to own Parks collision. His passion about perfection is just amazing.

Out of curiosity do you plan on getting the shop to suggest you what products you want or do you already know?

I would recommend gearheads, even though the shop is new the guys there have been around the car scene for as long as I can remember. Alan had the first h22a ek9 in BC and chayen has a fully built ek that was featured on superstreet back in the early 2000-2003. These guys were around during the delta port days! Posted via RS Mobile
