I was looking for a place to install a spoiler for my car. To be honest, I don't know much about cars and all the technical terms. I became interested in cars after I started playing a video game called Grand Theft Auto 5. While I was modding virtual cars in the game, I started wanting to do that for a real life car! Haha. As a student on a budget, I'm not able to afford fancy cars or do expensive modding. But I could do something within my student wallet means on an older car. I decided the first thing I wanted to do was add on a spoiler. I talked to one of my car-loving friends and he recommended Garage Five Performance Tuning to me. I emailed Garage Five some inquiries, and Rob was polite and professional in his replies. I think he's the owner or manager. I bought a spoiler for my car on eBay and had it shipped from US to Canada. I was a bit nervous about this because I've never done anything like this before. I was really careful and did my due diligence in making sure it was correct for my car model and the factory paint matching the vehicle -- and I had emailed all of that to Rob. Rob was very helpful. He was transparent about pricing and on the time needed to install it. The staff at Garage Five were very professional, friendly, and did a wonderful job installing the spoiler onto the car. They found a defective problem with the spoiler lights (which would be the fault of the eBay seller). I've uploaded a photo of the car spoiler. My car isn't yellow, I changed the color for privacy reasons. Thank you, Rob and Garage Five team! read more

I have been a long term customer and have bought my Acura and then my Honda to Garage Five. I am extremely happy with excellent customer service from Richard and Rob. Needless to say Garage Five has extensive products for my vehicles and at a competitive if not very reasonable costs. You guys are fantastic and my go to place to go for performance tuning. read more

They installed lowering springs at a fair price, and it's clear their expertise is greater than many other shops. 100% would recommended.

Had a dead battery today after Denny's, and gave them a call, OK for me to come over to drop by even they were busy, both of their hoists were taken up. Service quick, new battery arrived in 15 min, and out the door. read more

Back in the day when you heard the name 'Garage Five' you would think of cars from movies like the 'Fast & Furious' looking all tricked out in your rice'd out ride this was probably one of the places you got your stuff installed. Not too many people know that they are not just a 'tune-up' shop. Let's get to the basics first, you want rims, tires, exhaust, bodykits, carbon-fibre hoods, spoilers, anything to make that car of yours look extra cool, sound extra cool, peform extra cool, well this is still the place for that. The prices here are very competitive, and the service here is top notch. What people don't realize is that they also do your tune-ups and fix ups for you non-crazy modified rice's up cars. I just went to get a transmission flush from them, and I booked this a week in advance, they took the courtesy to call me a day before to remind me of this appoointment, got my car in on a Saturday morning, and by mid lunch I was giving them my money for such prompt service as they called me to advise that my car was ready. Wouldn't think of going to them in the past for this type of service but now I will, and probably will come back for some different things as giving them a chance to quote on changing my shocks for my car. The guys here are super friendly, not the faceless mechanics/automotive guys behind goggles and mask that you don't see which adds to the cool factor. If your in Richmond, near the place, or just want a good job done to your car, give these guys a call to ask if they can do what you need them to do to help your ride, and you will be surprised by the overall service and price. read more

Got a Honda? Yup, they tune them here and really well as a matter of fact. If you are looking for parts for your car, chances are they can find them for you here. Unfortunately not everything can be found here, but pretty much for most of your Japanese import car needs. Remember, this is a tuning shop, a high performance parts center and garage service. They carry all kinds of aftermarket parts and wheels and tires. If they don't have it, they can probably source it out for you. The one limitation is that they don't really do "hard core" racing stuff. No special fabrications, cages, safety gear. Mostly name brand Japanese stuff. So if you have a BMW or Mercedes or a certain Toyota Yaris, You 'll have to go elsewhere. I came by one time looking for 13 x 8 inch wheels, they didn't have them. I asked about special Tokiko Shocks for the Yaris,... not available. So there are some limitations, yes. But they are a great bunch of guys who all work hard and have a great reputation to uphold. If you are starting on a car project and it's Japanese? Drop in and say hi, tell them what you are looking for and go from there. The Car tuning community is really small and all the reps know each other and help each other out. So if they can't get it, another one can. read more

One of the more established tuners in the Lower Mainland, these guys definitely know their JDM stuff and are knowledgeable in all areas, be it installs or ECU tuning. They have a laundry list of quality suppliers and go-fast parts from Europe, Japan and the USA. Want to get that Rotrex blower installed? They do it. Hondata tuning, yup, got that covered here too. Only downside is that they don't have a alignment machine and the place is super busy during the summer months, so book in advance! Install rates are highly competitive and they always back up their work. Dave and Rob are super friendly guys up front and Wayne and Rich know their stuff putting on my suspension and Innovate Wideband AFR on my MINI. Two thumbs up! read more

These folks seem not just like legit car pros but also have great customer service. I've just been chatting with Rob here at Garage Five Innovation about the suspension on my Impreza for about 15 mins and I'm already so impressed. I will update once I hopefully get the actual work done but the attention to detail and concern to explore every facet of my potential modifications before pulling the trigger on parts is awesome. read more

Garage Five has been around for a LONG time. When i bought my first car, i went to them with all my mods (suspension and exhaust). Fast forward 10 years later, now I have a car that needs work done and they are booked SOLID. Having said that, they are on time and always give accurate time frames. They can order parts for you if you're too lazy to do it yourself. Give Dave a call and you'll be a customer for life. read more

My first visit to Garage Five, but it won't be my last. Great bunch of guys, very knowledgeable, very helpful and very informative. Would and will recommend them to anyone. Thank you very much for making it a great experience. read more

Kept charging me to "fix" my HID's that they had installed. Paid over $1700 in labor and they still don't work. Had my HIDs installed a few years ago from them, as soon as I drove off the lot, they turned off. Brought it back the next day and they fixed it for free. Worked fine for a year or so, then they would flicker at the same time. Brought it in 3 times after that over the course of 2.5 years. Never worked properly since then. I also mentioned that I can't drive my car at night because my lights don't work. They didn't seem to care at all. Lights haven't worked in 1.5 months. Cancelled my appointment and was told it was very inconvenient for them to fill the time slot I had booked. I think it was pretty inconvenient for me to go there every damn time and pay for something they never fixed. Also, I was told a few weeks ago when I called to reschedule that they never guaranteed that the HID's would work in the first place. That would have been nice to know when I first went there. Trying out RPM electronics in Burnaby. So far their customer service has been great and they booked me an appointment within 5 days, unlike the 3 week wait time at garage 5. read more

Best selection and service across all of the Lower Mainland! I really like coming in to Garage Five to get work done on my car. Prompt and friendly service awaits you. Do note that they get really busy and you might have to wait a week or two to get your appointment scheduled. It just shows how popular they are among car enthusiasts. I'm glad I've found Garage Five to help me out with my car modding. read more

Heard of these guys for years and thought I would try them out. I had a new aftermarket grille installed on my Audi A4 and dealt with Dave at the counter and I can't remember the techs name, but both offered great service and they both seemed very knowledgeable. The tech found a fresh rat nest in my engine and even cleaned it out for me for free. The overall price for the grill installation was very reasonable. I totally recommend these guys. I'll probably go back and get them to lower my car as well. Thanks guys! read more

I came here to get my coilovers and chassis brace installed on my vehicle. I rarely do give businesses 5 stars but these guys totally deserve it. The customer service is top notch and the guys really care about what they do. Everyone here, including the technicians working in the back are cool. You're not really treated as a customer, but as a buddy....and we are all united in our attempts to make our ride look and perform better. The best thing is that the prices are very reasonable. For example, my chassis brace took just 15 minutes to install. Most shops charge minimal 1/2 hour labor for that but they charged me 1/4 hour labor. In my opinion, this business isn't driven on making the most profit from their customers while doing the absolute least (like most other businesses I deal with). The only thing I have to complain about is that the retail space is a bit cluttered. I think if they relocated to a bigger place, and had more goodies on display, they would be the best tuner shop in the lower mainland. Absolutely 2 thumbs up! read more

Great service, the go to shop to get any performance upgrades done, not only were they professional with the work I got done, they were very helpful with advice and a wealth of information. I had my springs installed along with Swaybars. Thanks again. read more

Super nice staff. Very knowledgeable. Intake exhaust installs. Come by. Great h&r pricing too!

Oil change and tranny flush. Basic work, but well done and fair priced. Rob, adrian and the whole team were nice, honest and cool. Would recommend and come back. read more

Got my hid installed from these guys a while back and worked great. They don't really sell hid but I got them from a different shop, these Chinese hid crap actually stop working after a year but I realize if the car don't come with hid don't put them in. It's telling u to buy a new car with hid or led. read more

Found out about these guys from a local car club and started shopping here now. Great service, prices and very helpful.
