Any shops in the tri-state?

Mpy18 · 06-04-2013, 03:15 PM

So being on these forums, I read a lot about these different bmw shops to visit to have any modifications done to your car. All in California

LTMW is the first that comes to mind, as I'm sure it does for most of you. Are there any places like this in the tri-state area over here on the east coast?

I'm sick of getting all these looks and fight backs from my body shop and mechanic on mods I want to do to my car. They don't believe in after market bumpers, like my new m3 replica. They don't believe in lowering a car on springs or coilovers. Basically I inherited shops from my pops that he deals with, that do by the book work. They are not willing to shave fenders and do any fun projects.

We need friendly shops here !!

Autocouture motoring and Tyrolsport come highly recommended.

Dont know where you're dealing with but I guess those shops are all plenty wealthy and not looking for new customers.

I have yet to go to Tom at Coleman but from the posts I've seen and emailing back and forth with him a few days ago, I already recommend this guy. Hopefully I'll be there soon for some work and I can tell you how it goes.
