Looks liek they have everything. I went there today (Sunday) and saw their store front. Looks like they have 4-6 car bays which is alot for a performance show. Their store front loooooked great. They had alot of nice products. I saw some CryO2, nitrous, intakes of course, some body kits. They are an all around shops. I jstu want to know if anyone has any experience with it.

Buffalo Grove is right near by where I live, thats cool. I might stop by at the shop again tommorow when they are open.

I went ther today! And looks like a great place! They are pretty new, under 1 year old. They are very knowledgable about their products. They have worked on some minis before too and looks like the do great work. They are getting a dyno installed in there right now and they are affiliated with a few other places, 4 body shops, another sohp that is getting an AWD dyno, these guys are going big. They charge $65 an hour labor and parts you get from them, and $75 an hours for the parts you bring in. They do performance, car audio, neons, and of course decals. What I liked about this place is that they care lots of different brands for their products, almost every brand. They aren't limited to 1-3 brands per performance mod like some places. They have their own free catalog thats color. These guys really know what they are doing, very nice customer service and support. Lifetime warranty behind their labor, and they will ship out any product you bought from them under warranty to the manufacturer. They have very good prices, especially comapred to Driver's Image, and the lifetime warranty is alot better then the one for Driver's Image as well. They have their own car storage when you leave your cars there, so they dont sit outside. They also send out your ECU for custom programming and store your car for you, takes 3 days. These guys are good. I'd give them 5 stars!!!!!
