No, not personally. But i've met the owner (Devin) and he's a stand up guy. Some of my evo friends have been going there for years.

I can strongly recommend Bavarian Professionals in Berkeley, www.bavpros.com. I took my M3 there for 10 years and they now work on my 2009 JCW.

I use Custom Mini Shop in Fresno, I know it is a drive but worth the drive. Steve is a Vendor here on NAM SRTech is his user name. Contact information is in my signature and he will be at AMVIV doing installs if your interested in getting some work done there.

Do they have a shop? I only see Internet sales on their website. I've been happy with Bay Bridge Motors in Oakland, but a shop in San Francisco would be convenient for me.
