good bmw shop in east bay?

so gti · 11-13-2006, 03:37 PM

ok...so allow me to ask this question here..since m3forum is blocked at work...

I am planning on getting exhaust in a month or so. was wondering where is a good place to get installed? I can do it myself but for my car, it requires tedeous adjustments which is time consuming and might require small parts/drilling etc...i'd rather just pay for someone to do it.

anyway, any recommendation? and I don't go to a stealership.

ask 118llc. his friends shop might do it.

hey guys, bmw aftermarket parts shops in the whole bay area? trying to find a shop whre i can pick up some 35w H8 mtec bulbs. any ideas?

just4kickz · 12-22-2006, 05:12 PM

Auto Innovations!

shragon · 12-22-2006, 06:29 PM

bulb wise, i have no idea where to go any more for those type of things. i think you can get a better deal searching online.

but if you want some stuff installed in the south bay, i second auto innovations in milpitas. carlab in santa clara does good work too.

007e92 · 12-22-2006, 06:33 PM

hey thanks alot guys...but damn, nobody had them.

Hey Bud! Edge charges dealer book rates for almost everything they do. I tried to get them to give me a break, but they keep saying since they are the best, it's worth the price.
