reputable Detroit metro shop

Hello.

Seeking a reputable shop in the Detroit metro area for installation of springs on my M4.

Looking for a place that does this often on our cars.

Thanks

Kenny is a car enthusiast and actively supports our local 3 Balls Racing track day organizers. I know they are definitely capable of doing good work, just don't know if they have a lot of experience with the F8x platform. You can call and ask.

Nikolas is near my house. They do good work. I've always used Motorwerks in Commerce.

Nikolas sound very reputable and I really wanted to take my car there. Except they said they don't install anything non-BMW or Dinan.

I wanted to install AC Schnitzer springs; a reputable company with reputable warranty. Theyhad to call me back with an answer whether they'd do it or not.

They returned my call and were very courteous, but the installation fee was unbelievably expensive.

I've had reputable shops install springs for around $400. They asked for more than 3x that, excluding wheel alignment.

I'll give Motorwerks a call. Thanks.

+ 1 for Motorwerks prices are much more fair than the competitors.
I have had my car dyno tuned at BCP, also a good place.

I highly recommend VR Performance on the east side (http://www.vrperformance.com). Horst is meticulous and the work is done how I would do it if I had the time. They have done springs and coil overs on my E46 and E90 M3.
