Exotic Customs

(12 reviews)

Well, let me tell you about my ABSOLUTELY AMAZING experience with Exotic Customs and its owner…read moreMike. Sorry, for the lengthy review, but I feel this needs to be mentioned, so others don't make the mistake I almost made. My BMW dealer told me my 2010 BMW 335xi needed to have the passenger side HID head light replaced due to a broken part. The total parts and labor cost were almost $2,200. This seemed expensive. While searching online for a used head light for my car, I came across Exotic Customs. I read online they specialize in HID head lights. I read the review from Roger M. here on yelp and after reading about his experience I decided "no way, I'm not going through what he did". So I continued my search, clueless that I was about to make a bad decision to go elsewhere based on a bad review. Eventually I purchased a used headlight from a place with great reviews. After the dealer tells me I bought the wrong headlight, the place wouldn't return it. I was furious I had wasted $650 on the wrong head light! A colleague at work overheard my complaint and told me to call Exotic Customs. He mentioned lighting is one of their specialties. I showed him the bad review about their HID lights. He laughed and proceeded to show me pictures of his friend's car they had recently customized. He called his friend, who had nothing but good things to say about Exotic Customs and especially about the owner Mike. I mentioned the bad review online and he stated "you can't believe everything you read online. Once you see what they do there, I guarantee you won't want to go anywhere else". So, based on the referral from my colleague's friend, I called Exotic Customs to make an appointment to see what they would charge to fix my head light. When I arrived 30 min early, Mike was working with another customer, so I waited for him to finish. While listening to their discussion I felt confident Mike knew what he was talking about. Once they finished, Mike looked over my car, found some bad components in the headlight and he recommended he repair the broken piece. I told him my dealer said it needed replaced. He smiled politely and said "I can actually fix it for much less". I inquired about cost. He put together 3 different proposals. One to fix the headlight the least expensive way, another to fix it with a new replacement BMW parts and a third option using their upgraded parts. All of his options were at least $1000 less than my BMW dealership!! I questioned all of the options. He explained them thoroughly, made recommendations and let me choose. He was very knowledgeable about how all of the parts were made and the installation process. I ended up going with the more expensive option using their custom upgraded parts. I felt this was the best option. Mike put through the order to produce the parts and called me a week later for installation. When I dropped off my car, the guy that was dropping off his car when I first stopped in, was picking it up. It looked like a totally different car. I was very impressed with the repairs, paint work, and custom parts they made. It looked as if the car had never been wrecked. The guy told me he couldn't believe how different the work was at Exotic Customs. He said they were more expensive than the other shop he went to, but the work was much more impressive. My car was in the shop overnight and Mike called me the next day to pick it up. When I arrived, Mike showed me everything they did to my car. He actually did the head light repair work himself. He showed me how everything worked just as the original BMW parts did. My headlights are now almost twice as bright as the original BMW lights, allowing me to see more of the road! ....and the lights don't blind oncoming drivers, because they used the original BMW headlight. Their work and parts are definitely top notch! I'm amazed they were able to fix my head light and make both headlights even brighter for half the price my dealer quoted me. They even give a warranty on the head light parts which the dealer wont warranty electrical parts! So in conclusion, I am glad I listened to my colleague's friend about going to Exotic Customs and seeing for myself what they do. This shop is real hidden treasure in West Chester. They are honest, upfront about everything, and actually care about the work they do. They don't want you to waste your money buying new parts if they can effectively repair the part for less. To me that's a great way to meet your customer's needs. After seeing how Mike runs this shop, I'm glad I went with his option. Even after wasting $650 on wrong headlight, I still spent less than my dealers quote. So, for those like myself who always read reviews and make decisions based on them, I'd recommend actually checking out the place before you judge them based on one bad review. You never know.... you might find an amazing place and save a $1000!! Thanks again Exotic Customs!!! You guys are awesome!!!

If you're looking to protect your vehicle from the salty winters, this service is a no brainer and honestly the right way to do it! My 4runner had minor surface rust along with some flaky spots here and there. Now it looks better than factory spec, with a nice flat, almost matte finish. No glossy or oily residue left behind, as they use Waxoyl. I'd like to mention that there was an issue regarding masking tape left on my rear shocks. Unfortunately, they forgot to remove it, and after driving the car home, the tape ended up blowing the top seals and leaking fluid. I contacted Mark immediately, and he offered to purchase and install a new set. I brought my car back, got a brand new set of Icon shocks installed and I was on my way! On top that they gave me a free Leading Edge Autosport shirt and a spray can of Waxoyl, just in case for the future! My 4runner looks great from the underside, it's protected from the elements and drives better than it did! What more could I ask! They specialize on higher end European vehicles, but rest assured, they're experts in the automotive world! Price was definitely reasonable considering the fact that dry ice blasting is a fairly new concept, and there are very few shops in the north east that can do it.

Classic Coachwork West Chester - Car that was repaired, front fender pictured was the replaced/repaired area

Classic Coachwork West Chester

This past winter, the heavy snow that had accumulated on my roof thawed and slid off, damaging both…read moreof my cars. The damage was significant and I was crestfallen -- but I knew exactly where to turn. I've been going to Classic Coachwork for over 25 years. I first discovered them in my 20s when, after a fender bender, I called a local BMW dealership to ask who they trusted for bodywork. They pointed me to Classic Coachwork, and I figured: if it's good enough for BMW, it's good enough for me. Since then I've brought them four more cars over the years, and they have restored every single one to pristine condition. What sets them apart goes beyond the bodywork. They're tenacious advocates when it comes to dealing with insurance companies -- fighting for OEM parts and thoroughly inspecting every inch of the vehicle once it's disassembled to ensure all hidden damage gets properly documented and covered. They also do an excellent job of keeping you updated throughout the process and setting realistic expectations on turnaround time, so there are no surprises. When I picked up both cars, the interiors were spotlessly clean -- like a complimentary detailing. And a small but genuinely helpful touch: they share a parking lot with a car rental agency, making drop-off and pickup completely seamless. 25 years and counting -- I wouldn't take my cars anywhere else.

They kept me informed of the progress and when to expect the work to be completed.....effortless, on my end! My daughter and son-in-law, to my surprise, requested my car be detailed. When I picked my car up, the car looked totally new....beautiful! Their customer service far exceeded my expectations. I would, without hesitation, use Classic Coachwork in the future and I would gladly recommend their services to my family and friends.

I can't recommend these guys enough. Awesome film and awesome service, Nelson still checks in every once in a while to see how everything is going ~ not many vendors out there will do that after the sale. ::Original Review:: I recently had my new car protected with paint protection film and ceramic coating by Blast Brothers and I couldn't be happier with the results. The entire experience was seamless from start to finish. Nelson and the team was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to detail. Went back a week later just to show some new gear I got and Nelson proactively fixed Even fixed the tiniest bit of peeling on the side passenger mirror that I didn't even notice myself! I love that kind of service! The film is practically invisible and the ceramic coating on top makes washing and sainting a beautiful car so much easier. I appreciate their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. If you're considering paint protection film, this is the place to go. They truly offer a top-notch service. Five stars is too low!

I brought 2 cars to him. One was ceramic only and the other was ceramic and front end PPF. From the first moment I arrived until the day I picked up the vehicle, I was kept aware of the status. When we picked the vehicles up, they were absolutely perfect. Unfortunately, shortly after getting the services, one of the vehicles was in an accident and needed new PPF on the front. Nelson was there to help! I am happy to give Nelson and Blast Brothers the highest recommendation. You will be very satisfied!!

We opted for the valet service which was very convenient. They sent a text to let us know when they were on their way and how long it would take them to arrive. Did the same upon return. It felt a little funny letting a stranger drive off with our only vehicle, but they returned it in ship shape. It smells like a new car and it is spotless. It feels good to support a local women-run business. Natalie is fantastic (didn't meet her daughter, I'm sure she's fabulous). We'll return to Magic Motorz for the magic touch!

This rating is not based on their service, as I was unable to take advantage of that. Instead, this…read morereview is for their communication, or lack thereof. I have been trying for months to reach this business by phone, and have not had one phone call returned, despite leaving a couple of messages. I finally decided to try reaching out through Yelp. I thought that I'd finally made some headway, as shortly after filling out the form, I received a response with a list of their services and their prices. But it turns out that was merely an automated system response. Where it gets worse is I responded with the service that I would have liked. . . But crickets. Even though Yelp showed that my message was "Read". I gave them a few days, assuming that they were just busy. But I can't believe that a business can be so busy as to not provide at least an acknowledgement. My final communication was reaching out to thank them for their initial automated response and mentioning that I assume they have no availability. And again. . . crickets. The final straw was the notification that my message on Yelp had indeed been received and "Read", yet still ignored. I really wanted and tried to support this women-owned business, but I am extremely disappointed in their lack of communication. Reply to Business Owner's Response: A quick search of my cell phone's call history shows that I did in fact call the correct number. The screenshot below shows that I have been trying to reach out to you since May 2025. And if you look closer, you will see that each of the icons are outgoing calls. Not one call back was ever received from you, despite the voicemail messages that I left. Additionally, I still have my landline, so a couple of calls were also made using that phone number. However, I don't feel that it's necessary to provide a screenshot of those call records. After my last call of October 28, 2025, I finally reached out to you through Yelp in November 2025, which leads us to this review. Thank you for your response to my review, although I wish that I could have received a proper response outside of this forum. Good luck to you in the future.
