'68 Corvette 510ci N02 Fogger system on Custom Tunnel Ram with dual Dominaters! Ya! That guy is crazy too

Hands down the best motor builder and tuner I've ever met! John & Cliff, I wouldn't build a car without them! I've had cars sit in my warehouse for over 10 years, put in fresh gas and fire right up just like I got it from their shop! John's build's & tune's are perfect it's motor music. over 25yrs John's been taking care of my cars, I'll never go anywhere else, and the cost, upfront and totally reasonable no surprises. with Joe and art C & j efforts couldn't be anymore superior.

I can't thank John and Art enough for getting my Firebird dialed in and running better than ever. As the previous reviews has shown, these guys know their stuff and I can finally attest to that. John was informative throughout the process. Art was also instrumental in explaining everything to me and in making recommendations on how to get the best performance out of my ride. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!

my z4 look like a child's toy when I check out these beasts.

See all

Called the guy for a dial in for my 1964 nova. He didn't seem real interested and took my number still waiting for his phone call.

Evolution Motorsports - Toyota murai full KPMF wrap

Two months ago, I took my 2026 Toyota Highlander to Evolution Motorsports to have high-quality PPF…read moreinstalled on the front end because the factory PPF didn't provide the coverage I wanted. Yesterday, while driving on the freeway, a vehicle in front of me ran over a piece of tire debris that flew back and hit my bumper. Thank God I had the additional PPF protection--it helped protect my bumper from what could have been serious damage. After this experience, I highly recommend Evolution Motorsports for high-quality PPF and professional installation. I'll also be adding before-and-after pictures so you can see the quality of their work.

I brought my car here for ceramic tint, ceramic coating, and a dash camera installation. The…read moreceramic coating came out beautiful and left my car super shiny. Alonzo was also great about keeping me updated and sending pictures throughout the process. The tint looks great as well. Unfortunately, right after the camera installation, my car started making a noise it had never made before, coming from the same area where the installation took place. Alonzo believes it may be the brake booster. I can't say for sure the installation caused it, but the timing is concerning. I want to believe that if something was accidentally disturbed during the installation, it was simply an accident. I also noticed that after the ceramic tint was installed, my radio reception became very static, which was never an issue before. I'm disappointed with the issues that started afterward

However, I followed up a couple weeks later asking if a certain date worked. I even explained that I had been busy and said the only time I'd have to bring in the car would be the following week. I paid $450 for this wrap and an extra $100 for the wrap itself. When the first job was done poorly, I went back to the shop to address the issues and they said they would fix it. I texted on a Tuesday expecting a response, and I waited until Sunday to follow up again. Instead of Lisa taking accountability, she told me I "did not reach out," which is extremely unprofessional and untrue. I had apologized for being busy, and I did reach out; she just did not respond. When I reminded her the job was poorly done and how there had been no response, she took zero accountability and tried to use my words against me. Lisa ignored my response when I explained how the situation should have been handled and how she failed to reply in a professional manner. As the customer, I should not have to teach someone how to treat me correctly or how to run a shop professionally. I wasn't trying to start problems; I stated the truth about the situation, but she did not like that. I went back because I had already paid and just wanted the work corrected. I dropped my car off again on Monday around 11:30am. The shop texted me claiming the wrap "wouldn't adhere," which I knew was an excuse. I told them to proceed because the material was fine, and if they couldn't install it, that was their shop's error. The rest of my car's wrap was perfectly fine. To double-check, I contacted the previous shop, who confirmed this shop was making excuses, saying, "The wrap sticks just fine. It sticks on the rest of your car fine. They're talking nonsense." I knew they no longer wanted to service me, and I no longer wanted their service either. I paid a good amount of money for this treatment. I made sure the job would get done. The shop told me the job would be done by Wednesday late afternoon. This was the second time they confirmed a deadline and failed to meet it. I made it clear from the start that I have a busy schedule and cannot afford delays, yet they did not respect that. Removing and rewrapping a front bumper is a 1-2 day job, it is not like I was asking to wrap half the car. I set a boundary that if it was not ready by 5pm Wednesday, as they confirmed, I would request a refund. My whole car was wrapped, had parts added, brakes caliper color change, and badges blacked out in about a week. I took it to another shop before taking it here. (Dependable Guys in Santa Ana) I am not a professional, but I am not stupid. There were no photo updates either, I had to ask for them. When they finally sent a picture, the wrap looked freshly slapped on two days after I dropped the car off. The day I dropped it off, they said the wrap did not adhere. It looked like my car sat there for two days until I asked for the photo, or it took them two days to remove a month old wrap and throw on one big piece lol.. My car is a small sedan, a CLA, not a supercar or SUV. Her words were: "Ok we will remove all the wrap and give you your money back. Come and pick it up today." She added, "You are demanding the refund so come get it. We cannot accommodate the time frame for you. Thank you we will be gone by 5 so please make it in time so we can process the refund." However, Mark (the installer) had reached out to me and told me him and his co worker would come into work early to finish the job. This was the second time they broke their own deadline, and instead of taking accountability, she tried to flip it back on me. Lisa took everything personally when this situation should have been handled with professionalism. I never asked them to remove my wrap; I just wanted the job done properly. The installer Mark was professional, but Lisa was disrespectful, dismissive, and extremely immature in how she handled the situation. I told them to leave the wrap and keep the money. This was their mistake, which took up the free time I rarely have. Even after I explained my situation, reminded them of prior mistakes, and was patient with the delays, they still couldn't get the job done on time. I didn't want or need the money back; I needed my car back lol. It was clear they didn't take me seriously, and I was forced to escalate this further, which she didn't like either. This was waste of time and caused unnecessary stress. I was frustrated because I had to deal with unprofessional and immature behavior. All I got were excuses, missed deadlines, and poor communication. This business does not stand on its word or its service. Don't bring your car here. Many shops in OC offer far better service and professionalism. I recommend Dependable Guys in Santa Ana! It turns out the wrap sticks just fine and clearly they were making excuses... 3 weeks no issues.

We were really impressed by their excellent service and attention to detail. Prior to us committing to tinting, the staff showed us the different options and gave us a lot of relevant details to help us make our decision about the level of tinting. They tinted both of our cars, 5 hours each, finishing everything in one day. The pricing was very transparent and the communication was great. We were very happy with how the tint came out. It's hard to know who you can trust with your car but we can wholeheartedly recommend Aerowerkz Motorsport for tinting. We would happily recommend them to any friends or family!

Huge shoutout to Arnold and his team for being so professional and delivering such amazing work. This is actually the second car I've brought to them. They did clear PPF on my first car eight years ago, and it still looks perfect--no yellowing, no peeling, nothing. That's why I came back, and once again, they exceeded my expectations. This time they wrapped the antenna, roof, spoiler, and mirrors in black PPF, did the full front end in clear PPF, and added black vinyl to the lower side door molding, rocker molding, and rear trunk molding. The cuts and edges are incredibly clean. If you're thinking about PPF or vinyl wrap, you won't regret choosing Aerowerkz.

Javier and Jason are straight up enablers of musical chaos in the best way possible. The sound quality is crystal clear, even when the volume is up to ridiculous levels. The speakers are loud, the bass hits hard, and 4,000 watts is more than enough to make your ears file a formal complaint. I still haven't turned it max volume. Too scared Lol What impressed me most was the customer service. Javier and Jason had plenty of opportunities to upsell me, but they never pushed anything. In fact, I ended up talking myself into upgrades because they took the time to answer every question and explain everything without any pressure. They're down to earth, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about getting the setup right. They're really good dudes...ones a little intimidating...but super nice. I promise. Best setup EVER. If you're on the fence about upgrading your audio system, stop being ridiculous and go talk to these guys. The workmanship, sound quality, and overall experience exceeded my expectations. My Jeep sounds absolutely wild now, and I couldn't be happier. Highly recommended.

What seemed like a straightforward installation turned out to be more challenging because of some fitment issues with the grille itself. Baha went above and beyond to make sure everything fit properly, even spending additional time making adjustments to get the installation right.

The final result looks fantastic, and the pricing was extremely reasonable compared to other shops I contacted. My cameras and parking sensors are also working as expected. Great communication, quality workmanship, and excellent value. I really appreciate the extra effort Baha put into the installation and would definitely recommend B3 Garage to anyone looking for aftermarket customization work!
