I recently had a very unfortunate situation occur with a dealership. I called and they got my car in ASAP. They performed safety checks to ease my mind that the car was safe for my daughter to drive. I was not charged for the checks. I received via text, what I would call a Car Health Report with pictures. It is click and view, user friendly software, that is categorized, detailed, and accessible.

The price was hefty and I decided to get estimates from BMW service specialists. Based on the super high ratings for Performance Autowerk, they were high on my list. When I reviewed the work that needed to be done, Rich suggested that I bring in my car so he could check it free of charge to make sure the work was needed and not being upsold. He provided a quick and very reasonable estimate. In the end, I decided to use another place because his shop is a long drive for me. But I would recommend him to anyone in the Dublin area.

It is so simple, if they do not want to fix our car, or too complicated, they can just say so! From September, if they really wanted our business, the owner could have reached out by now.

This isn't just an every day build it's a 964 turbo body that I acquired with a small block chevy motor which LGR determined was blown. We decided to go with an LS swap, 996 transmission, custom suspension setup, and a vision that required a shop that understands performance, craftsmanship and most importantly safety, at a very high level. From the beginning, Chris and the team treated the car like it was their own. They took the time to understand the vision, gave honest feedback, and executed everything with a level of detail and care that's hard to find nowadays. The car drives, feels, and performs better than I imagined. They absolutely nailed the balance between raw performance and drivability. What I respect most is that they're real enthusiasts and racers first not just a shop trying to push cars out the door. You can tell they genuinely care about doing things the right way, even when it takes more time or effort. If you have a special project, especially something custom or outside the box, I can confidently say Life's Good Racing is one of the few places in the Bay Area capable of doing it right. Grateful for the entire team and excited for the next phase of this build.

I couldn't be happier with the level of service that I got from Life Is Good Racing,The care they took with my car, and the price that came in underestimate. They did an awesome job on my side rockers. I am extremely picky and careful when it comes to what I do with the car and they took the same level of care and attention not only having it but working on it. I couldn't be more pleased and from now on will reach out to them for not only mods but routine service work on the car, thanks again guys, I really appreciate you. Chip

No probllem as i had done this 50 plus sets before. Well, the normal loop kind it turns out. This 2015 Ford Explorer had a metal nub on the end after I broke off a piece of plastic. I was in Ut-Oh land thinking I broke something. I spent 30 minutes trying to figure out as the rain increased by the minute. Off to Monument with much hope. Deborah, greeted me with a smile as I entered. I said I HOPE you can help. I explained the mid-evil wiper control arm. She removed the normal car install loop part and installed an entire new insert, and pulled out a part of that insert and quietly said its was ready for instal. I was still doubtful of this witchcraft and a happy ending. Deborah came outside and installed the first one explaining each step. She might as well had been speaking Swahili and I would've understood better. Luckily, seeing me deer in the headlight confusion, she also installed the second one. I had bought nothing from the store and she treated me like a Monument highroller. Excellent/outstanding customer service from her. I was beyond fortunate that she had the patience and knowledge to solve my Rubiks cube. This will be my go to place no doubt in the future. ( I'll call first and ask Deborah is working :)). Thank you Deborah for all your help you made me and my Unknowing client very happy. Deborah- 10 out of 10 stars!

Got a reasonable quote to have a new radio and backup camera installed to my 2007 Honda Accord…read moreafter reaching out via Yelp. When I came into the shop to have the work done, Sayed said that because my radio was more complicated than he was able to assess, he was supposed to quote me $100 higher, even though I had provided the links to the products beforehand (because Yelp combined the two links I sent into one line when viewed on desktop, he wasn't able to figure out how to click into them ahead of me dropping off the car). That said, Sayed was generous enough to split the difference at $50 and then proceeded to deliver excellent customer service - he was attentive, thoughtful, and even gave a personal walkthrough of all the controls and other tips to keep in mind when I picked up the car. I've been using the unit for a couple of days now and can say the installation was flawless. Would come here again and recommend Precision Auto Stereo to anyone.

Wrote this same review on Street Beat as they are one and the same…read more This experience was by far the worst that I came with so much time, money, and patience. Please note that this business is also connected with PRECISION AUDIO (https://www.yelp.com/biz/precision-auto-stereo-hayward?osq=precision+audio&override_cta=Request+pricing+%26+availability). I initially went to Precious Audio to install a new head unit and back seat entertainment system for my 2006 Range Rover Sport. I wasn't going to push forward on the entertainment system because, it wasn't what I was looking for. Later he advised that the system he sold me had all the newer streaming apps such as Disney+, feature to connect the phone, and head unit to stream the same visuals. Didn't happen. In fact, it was a lot of back and forth because, my purchase was more so treated as a DIY project and not so much that there was experience that they knew exactly what they were doing and how to do it. Which would've been fine if they had stated that initially. I spent a great deal of money for them to work a project they clearly haven't done before. Also, this isn't a shade statement to the installers that do the work who are amazing. This is all directed to the people who run the place. In a 2006 Range Rover Sport the screen dash unit shows the stock feature such as AWD functionality, modes, etc. When my aftermarket purchased from precision/street beat head unit was installed, that screen no longer worked. I asked them what happened and why isn't it on? We went down a tremendous RABBIT HOLE that only took time and money. Nor did they fix the screen for free. That also came at a cost which I disagree with because, it was their guarantee to get everything functioning as normal with the addition of the new head units functionality as well. So just a heads up, their prices are marked up to the highest possible. I guarantee a majority of their products can be found at other businesses for a cheaper cost. SO DO YOUR HOMEWORK FIRST. You're not getting deals here, I promise you that. I was given an initial set up which days later ended up going out. An error would pop up on the screen that said "CAUTION! AMP OVERLOAD." Then he advised me getting a higher model head unit, which of course I had to pay for. In addition, to get my top screen working they asked for the stock head unit (what if it got tossed out?) and apparently had to buy a part that costed hundreds of dollars which I never saw the receipt for, FYI. With all this back and forth, I asked if a discount can be given. For context, I started this project in mid year 2024. So I really did my part to stick it out with them and try to have it work. Especially because this project cost about 4-6k. I pointed out how JL Audio sells the same amp they sold me at a cheaper cost. I showed them how Pioneer has the same deck they sold me at a cheaper cost. And Mo stated they didn't get the "go ahead" from the business to sell at those prices. Really? You're a business who bought the product already. What permissions do you need? Fast forward to present day. The backseat entertainment still doesn't have Disney+. At first they stated that they just needed me to stop by to get it fixed. When I called to set up a meet that turned into, "We have to send the hardware back." for an update. Come on.. How am I going to be without a vehicle, yet again? There's way more pressing things in life to address than to be taken down a rabbit hole with individuals who DO NOT have integrity. I couldn't even get a price match on products in which their retailers sold it for. In addition, my current higher model head unit they recommended still BLACKS OUT occasionally. Like I said, what's the point of going back when I stuck it out with them for a long time, invested good money, and gave a great deal of patience and understanding. I'll never trust STREET BEAT or PRECISION AUDIO to do any of my work. I really hope car audio consumers come across this post to watch their back and their pockets. DO NOT COME HERE.
