On Monday, March 31, I dropped off a header at Gene's for repair. I had a race coming up that weekend and needed the header back no later than Wednesday. Greg had mentioned on the phone that they were extremely busy, and couldn't promise he could get it done in the time frame needed, but because just finding someone willing to work on a custom tubular header was a challenge, I decided to take a chance and drop it off. On Wednesday, I called around 2:00 to see if he was able to get to it. He told me he had just started it and would try and have it done that afternoon. Around 4:30, I called again and was informed he was half way there but would probably stay late and finish it. I asked him to give me a call when complete and I would pick it up that evening. Around 7:30 the call came and I went to the shop and picked it up. Not only was I pleased with the repair, but the price paid was very reasonable. More importantly to me was the fact that Greg cared enough to stay late and finish the project for me so that I could get my car together for the out of town race that weekend preventing me from forfeiting entry and hotel fees. Greg, I really appreciate you getting it done for me. I hope this review brings some well deserved business your way. read more

Greg from Gene's has been in the Business since the early 70's. He knows how to get the Job done. No matter if its a SUV, Import, old 1955 Corvette or a brand new 2010 Mercedes. He's got most performance Items in Stock. His workmanship is outstanding, I send all of my Friends to him. Highly recommended! read more

I had them make a complete exhaust system for my 1953 bel air and I couldn't be happier. High quality welds, fair prices, and friendly people. This will always be my go to place when I need a muffler or exhaust installed. read more

Did some research and found this was the closest/cheapest muffler shop i could find that does mandrel bending. I called for a price on a friday for new exhaust piping for my Challenger to 2.5 inches and i would provide my own x pipe and mufflers. Greg told me between $250-$300. Thats about how much all other shops wanted to do crush bending. So i waited til monday to come in since theyre closed on weekends. Came in at 9:30am and it took them a while before they got to my car..maybe like 45 minutes. Once they got my car inside they got to work. They were done around 12:45pm. I went to pay and Greg said it woulds been $400 but since he quoted me less all i had to pay was $300. My exhaust sounds louder and im super happy. Just wish i wasnt standing around in the sun waiting too long when i got there. read more

First off I want to say, my nova sounds like a BEAST when I put the pedal to the floor!!! Awesome work!!! Greg you and crew are doing a GREAT job!!! If you car needs a performance exhaust GENE'S MUFFLER is the place to go!!! read more

The guys at Gene's Mufflers did an amazing job fixing a problem that another muffler shop created and they fixed it for a great price. Greg was super personable and knowledgeable and this is the second time he had helped me out with a situation. They have plenty of American Muscle cars and trucks there but they did a great job with my Honda CRX. I'll be going back later to do a complete exhaust system. I couldn't be any happier with this place. Gonna recommend all my friends. read more

Excellent work. Got a magnaflow installed on my Ram and sounds great. Came back one time because I had a concern with the muffler and Greg took care of me on the spot an fixed my issue. Muffler installation was outstanding. read more

Had an exhaust joint break and my truck sounded like a helicopter. I figured it would be expensive and take a few hours are the very least. I took it to Gene's and they were done in 5 minutes with no hassle and it costed less than my dinner. Thank you guys so much, especially Greg! read more

I have been going here for around 15 years. As a Downey Patron everyone I grew up with has taken there vehicles to Gene's. They have hooked up all my cars and trucks from domestic to foreign. Reasonable prices, Excellent results and service. They recently installed a custom 3" Cat Back system at a unbelievable price, and wow what a nice set up!! Bottom line, don't wast a $1000 or more on a full system, go to Gene's and get it for half the price, with better performance!! read more

They are awesome! brought my 63 Truck in for a new exhaust system after dropping a big block in. The truck went from a purr to a roar!! It is very rare to find a business that provides great service, quality craftsmanship and an amazing price. They give you a couple options and understand that for some of us cars are not just something to get to and from work. I'd give them 10 stars if I could! read more

This place has never failed me on working on all my car's mufflers! Their pricing is by far the cheapest I've ever experienced. I know how much it usually costs outside for exhaust work and compared to other places, these guys are dirt cheap for the quality work they do! read more

Gene's Mufflers - Making her loud - Auto Repair Near Me - Downey, California

I had a great experience here. I showed up with my flowmaster super 10 and requested an installation quote. The price was slightly higher than my original quote but that's because they hadn't taken a look under the car and noticed some custom pipe work would be involved. The final price was fair and much less than what I was quoted elsewhere. When I arrived there were 3 cars ahead so I asked if I could come back in about an hour and have them hold my spot (I live 10 minutes away) they were completely okay with that and I came back as promised. I showed up and they got me in and out in about 45 minutes. The car sounds beautiful and the work looks very clean. I highly recommend this spot to anyone that's looking at getting some exhaust work done. read more

This place was legendary for its work in the 80's and 90's. It's been a long time since I have needed exhaust work but it was the first place I thought of when my girlfriend's 1970 K5 Blazer needed a new exhaust. I spoke to Greg and told him what I thought I needed . He then told me what I actually needed. I went with his recommendation and it was spot-on. The quality of work was top-notch. I ended up with an outstanding exhaust system which both improved performance and esthetics. The price is always reasonable and the customer service is outstanding. read more

Greg was a great help and does quality work and reasonably affordable I would recommend Genes muffler shop!!
