Pejmaan T.

The guy (Lafayette) is a Cheap, Greedy. Untrustworthy, Flip-Floper and gouger who should not be trusted because he does conspiracy for living! He is a FRAUD and here is why: I was referred by a former employee of that place (Javier) to this shop with such a long and meaningless name to replace wheels (rims) of for Mercedes-Benz S class, I got a cold reception over the phone when I called the guy in a first place (owner named Lafayette!) to set up a business appointment! On March 19th I grabbed a sample of rim and I drove nearly 70 miles to get to his dirty and worse than a "Junk Yard" so called "shop" in National City! Despite his cold and very unfriendly on the phone and in person receptions (even though I offered to buy lunch for his employees to give him a friendly faith which he said "there is no need to" in response instead of thank you!) But just because of reference a work employee gave about him despite horrible level of professionalism and really nauseating hia shop conditions I decided to give him my business anyways! He measured my Mercedes left front wheel not at safe equipped shop (if he had any! I didn't see any!) but in the middle of his junk yard's drive way under hot sun to order spacers were needed! He said the cost for spacers and installing would be $706.06, and he wants 386.06 of it right away and $320.00 also when he completed the installation, and he said he wants all in cash! I quickly gave him a personal check since I usually don't carry cash in a large amount but I've got a feeling that he's pretty money hungry since he dose't pick up calls but rather texts, so he doesn't pay for possible costly phone calls, and he gets opportunity to think about answers by texting instead and doesn't want even pay a few cents to credit card company to make his business more customary, professional and easy to pay! I asked him if he can also find out about cost of set of 4 good-looking quality tires to put on new 4 rims, he gave me the estimate on tires and when I verified price for the same tires at other stores I noticed he quoted me $43.00 more expensive on each tire for total of $172.00 plus taxes and labor cost in addition which would be exceed $200.00 difference! I texted him and honestly told him the price for tires he quoted me at other store is $172.00 lower and I can buy my own tires if he wouldn't mind! He immediately texted me back and said he changed his mind, and he would not do the job, and he asked me to stop by and grab the spacers and bolts he ordered for and leave! I got shocked by his "My way or Highway" business practice and an obvious super cheap, greed and flip-flop mentality the guy has! The fact that he punished me by denying me a service he signed the agreement and has already got partially paid for to complete demonstrates his elogic that saying "You obey to pay me the amount I ask or I'll feel free to illegally flip-flop and throw the agreement to trash can under my desk"! I came to his business to have the service he supposed to equally give to community members regardless of their skin color, national origin and gender but ended up buying his spacers he refused to provide the whole seller's invoice for if he really ordered those for my car (because he probably was stock with those spacers and got a golden opportunity to get rid of them for nice cash without any other involvement! Anyways. I drove another 70 miles to him again to pickup those mandatory sold spacers, I took my wheels. Bolts and Spacers to Discount Tires close to his shop, and they did an awesome job of replacing them and also installing set of 4 brands new similar with those Lafayette was trying to gouge me by saving $240.00! That was my 1st and definitely the last business experience with a Junk yard called New Image Customs which as you can see in their Yelp's record doing a reverse discrimination by accepting a black customer ONLY! I was the only non black customer of him which ended up abused and denied service! I enclosed the invoice as an evidence to my dissatisfaction experience I've ended up with the. I hope no other customer gets what I went through!

My new and improved truck!

This place is the bomb I would definitely recommend you bring your vehicle here. I brought my truck here after another shop messed it up and these guys not only fix it they made it better than ever! The owner and staff are super friendly and treat you like family. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Again, this place is definitely recommended!

See all

Not only did they make my car look brand new again I was able to continue to drive my vehicle while I waited on my new bumper to be prepped and painted.

Exceptional Service, Every Single Time…read more I've honestly lost count of how many vehicles I've had done at One of One -- and that alone should tell you everything. Just had my Model X fully PPF'd and tinted, and once again, the results are absolutely flawless. What truly sets them apart (beyond the incredible workmanship) is their customer service. They greet you by name the moment you walk in -- and that kind of personal touch is rare these days. Dawn, Alex, and Andrea are warm, professional, and incredibly detail-oriented, and the install team in the back is simply next level. You can tell everyone here genuinely takes pride in their craft. The PPF application is surgically clean -- edges are perfect, panels line up beautifully, and the finish looks factory (if not better). The tint completely transforms the car, both aesthetically and functionally. Heat rejection is noticeable immediately, and the overall look is sleek, aggressive, and refined. What really separates One of One from everyone else is that they don't just install film -- they deliver craftsmanship. They use top-tier materials, but more importantly, they take the time to do things right. No shortcuts. No rushed jobs. Just precision. Pricing is more than fair for the quality of work you're getting. In vehicle protection, the real value isn't just the product -- it's the people installing it. If you care about your car and want it done properly the first time, this is the place. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

(Honestly, if Yelp let me give 10 stars, I'd do it in a heartbeat!)…read more I had my Cybertruck transformed with a full satin black vinyl wrap plus complete window and windshield tinting -- and the entire experience was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. David and the team delivered top-tier service all around: * Exceptional communication -- clear, responsive, and made scheduling a breeze. * Premium materials -- high-quality vinyl that looks incredible and feels built to last. * Lightning-fast, flawless installation -- professional work with razor-sharp attention to detail on those angular Cybertruck panels. * Killer pricing -- seriously unbeatable value for such a premium transformation. The finished look? Straight-up menacing in the best way possible. The satin black gives the Cybertruck that perfect stealthy, matte-yet-sophisticated vibe, and the full tint (including windshield) adds privacy, heat rejection, and a sleek, cohesive blackout style. What really sets this shop apart is the post-service care. David followed up multiple times to check on the wrap's curing process and make sure everything was settling perfectly. That level of ongoing attention is rare and shows genuine pride in their work. If you're looking to customize your vehicle with wrap, tint, or both -- do yourself a favor and go with this team. You won't find better quality, value, or customer care anywhere else. 10/10 -- highly recommend!

I gave him down payments…read moretotaling $13,000 for a twin turbo build, and for the last 5 months he has completely ignored my calls and texts. He vanished with my money, delivering nothing in return. Apparently he is dealing with health issues, but that is no excuse to scam me. We reported him to the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR), who sent out a rep to investigate. They confirmed the address he gave is actually his dad's shop, and that Scott hasn't worked there in over 8 years. That says it all. I've since connected with others in the community who were also scammed by him. I am attaching screenshots of my respectful attempts to reach him so people can see the truth for themselves. Stay far away from this absolute fraud.

After much thought and soul searching, I decided to keep the car and do an engine swap. In late December 2021 I was lucky to find Scott and Relentless Autosports. Scott and I met up and had him look at the car to give me an honest assessment of what needed to be done. He told me the basic bones of the car was in excellent condition and an engine swap/rebuild would be the best course of action. We looked at some other wear and tear repair items on the car and he gave me a REALLY fair estimate and so I signed him up. I gave him the car in January 2022 and the rebuild process began. Over the course of the next few months, Scott worked diligently to rebuild an engine, swap it out, keep me updated constantly with pictures, texts and phone calls. Scott discovered other repair issues which I authorized for repair. After 5 months (I know that sounds long, but in the case of several other mechanical, electrical and engine check light issues to include COVID-19 issues), Scott returned my G35...and I gotta say I am IMPRESSED!!!! Scott and his team literally rebuilt my G35 and it runs like a new car. I just got it smogged and it passed with flying colors!!! I am very happy with Scott and his team's expertise, professionalism and attention to detail. I highly recommend Scott and Relentless Autosports if you need anything done on your Nissan. Thanks for a job well done, Scott!!

Below you can see the stock pics of my car, and what it looks like after he laid the infrastructure and mounted the 20 inch 150-spoke gold wheels, the side rails, rear diffuser, rear spoiler, front lip splitter, antenna cover, and door covers. He also installed the chrome blackout around all windows, lower door trim, and he wrapped the front grille, lower front bumper chrome, and chrome trim around rear tail lights in gloss black vinyl. The price was really good for all of the work him and his team at Pimp Ur Ride put into this car. This took 2 years to complete, and I couldn't be happier.

Edgar handled the customization, and he clearly knows his stuff bc he was top-notch from start to finish. He answered all my questions & even texted photos of two different install kits. The backup camera is crystal clear and is a huge safety upgrade. Plus, the new Pioneer system completely modernizes the car with every CarPlay feature, including voice navigation, Spotify, and hands-free calls & texting via Siri. Finally, the install looks factory clean and blends in with the original dashboard. You'd never know the system wasn't stock. This system gives me peace of mind knowing my teen has a safer ride, and that she's enjoying her first car. Highly recommend Pimp Ur Ride for anyone looking to modernize an older car with today's tech! For 100% transparency, this is my honest review and I'm not paid or sponsored in any way. Edgar offered great service, solid pricing & premium products backed by a 1-year warranty. Plus, my teen driver is safer. Can't ask for more than that!
