Looking for a shop

Postby uribeforrest » Fri Dec 03, 2010 9:14

My wife and I have a deal, I just spent 3000$ on my car but I have to have it put on and everything installed by a pro in or close to Colorado Srpings.

I am looking for shops to:
Put on a bodykit and hood plus factory paint
Install a Cold Air Intake
Install a new steering wheel
Install a new stereo and sub

Well Zico has done body work for a shop and we can install the CAI, steering wheel and stereo and sub, and aside from the body work I don't imagine it would cost you anything other than whatever accessories or parts needed for installation. How "professional" are you looking for? LOL

The CAI (depending on brand) will only take a few min on the 8. If it's an AEM/Mazdaspeed intake then you have to remove the bumper which obviously takes more time. You really should with most intakes anyways as you want to remove the VDI system to get the most out of the intake.

The steering wheel and hub are also pretty easy, less than an hour of work.
:eek:

Rusty's auto body did all my body work for the 8. He was the only one i found that was comfortable cutting into my carbon fiber roof.

You know..... honestly, I *am* in the market for a new business partner that won't break off all deals and end a 15-year friendship, over a certain redhead.
The three of us seem to get along well enough to make something work. Something to ponder, until I'm finished with my education at DADC. The idea of moving to CSprings is becoming more and more tempting, regardless.

I'm know the word "partnership" isn't lost on you. Me, you, Zico, and a couple of cronies, making stuff go faster. As long as at least 4 people are at the shop, at any given time (besides the hot girl we'd hire to work the front counter), there's no problems. And, I'm a workaholic, so I'd be there a lot.
But I graduate DADC, in April 2012, so this is a ways off.

Rotaries, Inline-6's, V8's, and 4-bangers. We'd do it all. Except BMW's. Screw those people. :p
