Wow. What a Great Experience at 8:45AM on a Thursday!!! Chamz was Amazing. I maybe messing up his name cause I didn't correct the spell check when he told me the second time, anyway I digress. This guy has a full on Muffler Shop to handle all your exhaust needs. He took care of me super fast on a common problem and was welding something within minutes. I am definitely coming back to this place. read more

I went here for a muffler delete and a resonator delete. It was initially 200 for the muffler delete and he did an amazing job with great welds. He showed me what it sounded like then started with the resonator which was 80. I didn't like the sound of a straight pipe so for another 80 he put it back on. Very friendly people, they are open until 5. Would recommend to anyone getting basic exhaust work done. Also amazing pricing. read more

Amazing service! Installed a borla s type catback system on my gr86 in less than an hour and for a great deal. Definitely recommend!

We nearly had my catalytic converter stolen (one end was completely cut and 35% cut on the other 1/2). We took the car into Arco Iris Muffler shop and the job was excellently done in 20 minutes! After the job was done the gentleman triple checked it for any exhaust leaks! All good and back on the road in 20 min flat!! Excellent service! Excellent staff! Highly recommend. read more

I'm back here again, but now to have a new stock muffler installed. I have had them replaced 2 catalytic converters, my truck has 3 in total.

Will definitely come back when my 3rd converter goes out. Also recommend this place to anyone that's in need of muffler work. read more

The tailpipe on my Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk wiggled loose and was dragging on the ground. I brought it in to Arco Iris on a Saturday afternoon and they put it back into the muffler and spot welded it for good measure. 15 minutes and a few bucks later I'm running quiet again. Great service at a very reasonable price. read more

I came here for a bad catalytic converter and will be leaving with a new catalytic converter and a new muffler. They made it easy and painless. Plus they wanted way less than the other guys and it was all done in under an hour. read more

When I first moved into the neighborhood I found the the windows in my new place had some broken hardware on the latch mechanism. It was old, from 1937 and I couldn't find the piece anywhere so I walked up the street to the shop with the funny-looking welded-muffler man overlooking their roof and asked the guys if they could fix it. Hector took a look, then fished out exactly the right brass bit from what I'd mistaken for jumbled box of junk. He then cleaned, fixed and polished my window dohickey back to beautiful and usable in about 8 minutes. Over the years since I've brought my clunker of an Isuzu for more mundane catalytic converter repairs and such and this shop is fast, reliable, clear and inexpensive. I'm mighty glad to have them as a neighbor. read more

Two of my Ford Explorers catalytic converters were stolen. Arco Iris Muffler Shop was my correct choice for service after considering others including one near my neighborhood. They showed genuine empathy and consideration for my needed repairs. They went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure my vehicles were safe to drive again. read more

All good reviews are from someone he knows. Unsafe, pricey, not professional. He is trying to charge almost as double other shop does. Very not responsible. I wonder how he runs business. Terrible. read more

Quick fix to my exhaust leak. They looked at my car as soon as I arrived and showed me that someone tried to steal my catalytic converter. There was a clean cut on the exhaust pipe and he told me he could weld then and there, and charged me $30. It was done in 10 mins and my car sounds great again. read more

Right here in the neighborhood. Welded on a new exhaust tip in 15 minutes. No problem. Very reasonable. I'm happy. read more

Arco Iris Muffler Shop - Great work. Quick, Good and inexpensive. Thank you. - Auto Repair Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Great price and solid work. I got my exhaust re-racked and straightened out. It was easy and fast, almost like a in-n-out style service. Definitely recomend. They only do exhaust and muffler work though. read more

Someone stole the catalytic converter off my car and even though I bought a replacement other mechanics tried to charge me over a thousand dollars just to install it but these guys charged me 1/3 of that price, took me in same day and even though there were other customers they still finished in under 2 hours.. my faith in people is 100% restored. These guys were super professional and courteous. Be polite and respectful and they'll take good care of you read more

These guys are the best and they will tell you what you really needed. I had taken each and every car that i owned to them and will come back again read more

Had to take my car here. Overcharged me. The parts was $80 for the cat and labor to weld it was $300. To weld a standard catalytic converter shouldn't take more than an hour to cut off and weld. I work at a dealership and I do work on my car and even have a Mig welder. I went to Mikes Muffler in El Monte and same thing i did, i only paid $180. This is including a new cat on the exact car plus Mike welded a hole in my muffler and welded a broken hanger and new gaskets, and explained to me about options and catalytic converters between Catco, Walker and other options. Mikes Muffler told me, its $110 for the part and $70 for labor. Arco Iris said $380, And Im assuming its an expensive cat. Come to find they are Catco catalytic converters that retail for $80-105. They straight up took advantage because I had to have my smog done that day and they knew it. So they jacked up the price. Thats in my opinion very shady and exploiting people at their weakness. I didn't realize until I looked at my receipt. Failure to explain the charges and not disclosing information is lying. I will drive 25 miles to an honest shop now, Arco Iris is 5 minutes from me, I feel ripped off every time I pass by them. read more

-no appointments, but it took 3 return visits after my estimate -I was quoted $100 for a simple job, not exactly cheap, but it's because I drive a newer BMW. That's bull. -when I finally got them to do the 40 minute job and was walking away, the skinnier guy told me the estimate was "per side", so double. I said I heard what the stockier guy said: El costo es por cada lado, basically "tell him it costs double" or something similar to that. -when I was getting my estimate a kid in a 25 year old Acura wanted his exhaust replaced and he was told it was a lot cheaper to just replace the whole thing without getting another catalytic converter. That's illegal and bad for the environment, not to mention that poor kids car won't pass smog. You know all the oil burning imports with 200k miles and rebuilt titles that have fart cannon mufflers and removed emissions systems?? You can thank these guys. This place is an eyesore. Hopefully the taco cart out front can somehow buy the shop and make it a great restaurant. read more

I got my exhaust here 2 years ago for an excellent price and I have loved it ever since. It makes such a unique and rich sound. Everyone knows when I have arrived somewhere, even my dog can hear me coming home from a block away and gets excited =P I recently messed up the system by scraping the exhaust against a parking divider at the car wash =( my fault. I was already thinking of taking it back here for the fix, but first I thought I should ask my Dad who is a mechanic trainee and has worked in the automotive industry for 20+ years where I should take it. Funny thing the first place he suggested that he has worked with and loved for many years was Arco Iris! So I guess now I will *definitely* be taking it back here for the repair and I will update with how that goes. read more

Great place with good prices, they changed my muffler install and got me a new setup for cheaper than the other guys. just don't disturb them on their lunch break. read more

One of the best muffler shops in town. Just got my mustang's dual exhaust system welded. They dont just work on yout car like an 8-5 hr job. They treat you like a part of a family. So rest assured that you and your car are secure and safe on the road. Thank you. More Power to you guys. read more

They were cool. I had a motorcycle muffler which had broken off, and needed welding, and a custom version of the same muffler that my buddy and I had packed all wrong. I asked them to cut, clean, and re-weld the custom muffler, and even though it was a crapshoot as to how to fix our strange muffler design, they gave it their best, and all of it went pretty quick.. got out for seventy five bucks, a fair price to me... and they treated me like a human being. I plan to use them for the next welding and/or muffler project I have. read more

I needed my muffler on my challenger deleted so i found this shop through yelp. After calling a bunch of other shops, most were overpriced. I went with this shop. The work was very clean on the welding and i was very pleased with the work. They work fast too...it was done in 30 minutes. Highly recommend this place to every1 read more

Took my Subaru here last minute on a Saturday with only a few hours left before the shop close. Thought I just needed a flange welded onto my mid pipe, but it ended up not fitting with my down pipe. He was able to make a couple cuts and welds to fab a custom mid pipe for me and also welded on a new bracket for the hanger. Everything was done in less that 2 hours and he gave me an awesome price I just had to give him a little more for such a great job. THANKS! read more

Performed the job (muffler & resonator reinstallation) efficiently and at a price better than any of the 10 other shops I called. Definitely recommend! read more

I purchased an exhaust system a few months ago for my Subaru. Everyone here is friendly and they get work done quickly. The pricing is also very reasonable; I would definitely recommend Arco Iris to anyone looking to beef up their exhaust. Everyday I drive, I enjoy the hell out of the sound on my car and I can only thank everyone here for making that possible. read more

Came in to get custom work done on my HKS Carbon Ti turbo back exhaust. Weld job was very clean and proper. Price was very fair. Honest good shop! Thank you read more

They best price and Quick ! I got my mid mufflers deleted on my 2014 Dodge Charger RT , I was in and out in 10 mins.

A piece of my exhaust system came apart while I was driving, so my neighbor (who is a mechanic) recommended this place. He said he has taken his own cars there for years and they do great work. I pulled in, and within 10 minutes, the pipe was welded back together - for only $25! Yay! read more

I was told by some friends this place can do some exhaust modding and welding. Apparently I can't because my car was "too low". At least give some options or try to get some business going by offering ways on how to get a lowered car on the lift at least. Two guys over there seemed like they didn't want to deal with such hassle. I wouldn't go here at all if you own any vehicle that is lowered because their lift is pretty high. read more
