I recently took my Tesla Model Y to this body shop to have a dent in the bumper repaired, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The car looks brand new! The price was more than fair. The specialist gave me an initial quote, and even though the repair ended up costing him more to complete, he stood by his original quote and didn't charge me anything extra. That says a lot about his honesty and integrity. Before choosing this shop, I checked with Tesla-certified shops and other auto body shops, and I was quoted anywhere from $5,000-$7,000 for the repair. This shop did an excellent job and charged me only $1,000. The workmanship was amazing, the price was fair, and the service was excellent. I will definitely be a returning customer and will gladly recommend this shop to my friends and family. Highly recommended! read more

Amazing service. Top notch quality. They took care of my son's car. Paint, install of a spoiler and the quality was amazing. We will be back

I recently had a Pioneer Apple CarPlay stereo and rear backup camera installed in my daughter's first car (2010 C300), and we couldn't be happier with the experience! 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! read more

Edgar is the best. He has done all of the mods to my car. He's honest, and will let you know what to expect before, during, and after while he's working on your car. 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. I'm bringing my 2015 Corvette in next to do all the same work that you see on my Caddy. Thank you so much!!!!! read more

I'd known Edgar for years and took my cars to him.He doesn't like being wrong and he would never admit fault. I tried to reach him to replace my tweeters cause they keep blowing out and he never got back to me. So I went to a different shop and they showed me what pimp ur ride did when they took apart where my tweeters rests. One tweeter was a whole different one than the other.im no stereo guy but I do know tweeters come in sets and that's what he charged me And as you can see from the picture, they made the smaller one fit by glueing it and stuffing card board in the casing. If you become friends with him get used to be putting on the back burner. You are not priority anymore. The new customers that spend money on a whole new system comes first. One thing he is good at is upselling. He'll ask you on a scale of 1 to 10 how loud you want your vehicle. You give him a number and he'll install mediocre speakers that you get tired of and you go back to getting better ones instead of giving you what you wanted in the first place or place the blame on you because "this is what you asked for". So all of you reading this beware. I just showed you proof how pimp ur ride does business. I suggest you look at the product get installed because they installed some bull crap tweeters that blew out on me the first week I got them.i know this will change our friendship after he reads this but it is what it is. If he's willing to do this to a friend, what do you think he'll do to you? read more

I needed some bodywork support for my JDM Prius G's retrofit project. I ordered used front and rear bumper covers from Japan. In both cases, the polypropylene bumper covers had been taken from wrecked cars, and they were abused during the international shipping process. The PUR shop was able to take these body parts and restore them to mint condition and apply a fresh two tone paint job for an affordable price. I will be coming back for all of my custom bodywork needs. read more

We needed some bells and whistles for our company truck and Pimp Ur Ride came through at a great price. Edgar is very knowledgeable and it seems there's nothing he can't do (don't quote on that) but he's very helpful and always answers the phone to answer any questions. On top of that the final results came out great. read more

Edgar (the shop owner) of Pimp ur Ride is the man. He is upfront and honest about the work he does. His shop has great pricing and does great work. I have gotten my spoiler, bumper lip, interior trim wrapped and my whole car repainted midnight purple all from his shop. I highly recommend Pimp ur Ride to anyone looking to modify their car in San Diego! read more

Very happy with the work Edgar and his team did. I requested a quote from Edgar for an install of a front splitter, rear diffuser, and wickerbill I purchased from a 3rd party. The quote was very reasonable and he was able to squeeze the install into his schedule which was very appreciated. I dropped the car and parts off at the scheduled time and left feeling comfortable knowing the team would be able to get the job done. A little later, Edgar called to confirm a few details about the install, and then called a couple hours later to inform me they were wrapping things up. Once I arrived, one of the Pimp Ur Ride members brought my car around. As soon as I saw the finished product, my head exploded. Everything was perfect. Mind you, the parts came with very few directions (literally like 2 directions about not over tightening screws lol). But Edgar and his team were able to put the vision into reality, down to the smaller details of how far the splitter and diffuser would stick out. When it comes to custom installs, there are few shops you can trust to get the job done. I would recommend Edgar and the Pimp Ur Ride team to handle any custom work you need done. It seems they specialize in audio, wheels, lights, and even installing TVs in cars...but they sure do get the job done with aero installs as well! read more

Edgar replied to my request regarding an installment on a spoiler for my 2018 Nissan Maxima. The spoiler was not ment for my car but is possible to install , the challenge was I had installed it and the spoiler wasn't install perfectly flushed. I took the car to the shop for the owner Edgar to take a look. He was straight forward and honest without trying to fool me on any promises. I'd rather have someone tell me it might not work , then to do so and mess it up even more instead and I'm still having to end up paying. Instead Edgar and I both agreed it wasn't worth trying to have it sit perfectly since the spoiler still sat pretty good on the car as is . Instead Edgar did tell me he can connect the tail light on the spoiler for me , which took Pimp ur Ride 20 minutes to what took me and a friend of mine two hours and a blown fuse later.. I would recommend this shop to anyone looking for an honest opinion and work. read more

Awesome Experience. Needed speakers for a 2020 Hyundai SUV. We formulated a plan, executed it but it wasn't 100% what I was looking for in my sound.

I have been going to Edgar at Pimp your Ride for 4 years. They provide quick serivce at a great price, that in my opinion can rival anyone out there in San Diego. Most people assume they only do custom audio, but this is far from truth. Some things I have got done there are window tinting, collision repair and paint, HID lighting, interior and exterior and just recently suspension work. As long as I'm in SD I will always go back to pimp your ride. Chief Justin Edwards USN read more

First and foremost, Edgar and his crew are the definition of customer satisfaction, hands down! Today I came in to get a new after market spoiler installed on my car. But before I decided to come to Pimp Ur Ride, I had contacted other numerous shops and most of them turned me down because their response was "it's not what we do here, sorry" but as soon as I requested the same service with Edgar, without any hesitation, he gave an awesome deal and set me up with an appointment! It's hard to find a body shop that will specialize in not only installing stereo systems, window tints and paint jobs but also customized auto body work. My prayers had been answered. Edgar greeted me with a smile and made me feel welcomed. He really does stand behind his phenomenal customer service. Pimp Ur Ride just gained a new customer for life. read more

Edgar at Pimp Ur Ride not only did a great job installing my stereo, camera and dash cam, he help me work with a shifty insurance company to get a sub-woofer replaced after I was rear-ended 5 minutes after leaving his shop.

The guy there was cool. He got to take my stereo and alarm out of my ford explorer and install alarm in to my ranger and stereo In my Durango for a good price. Very clean job and even the head lights don't turn on automatically when I turn the key on. To me that's a plus because I hated the automatic headlights. The bad is it's hard to find parking in from of the shop. read more

Took my 2020 mustang in for them to put a spoiler on it. I brought them the spoiler told Edgar how it's supposed to go etc we settled on a price and he told it would be done in 2 hours. Later that day I get a call from Edgar saying he's gonna charge me more money because he has to drill two more holes in my car and spoiler. I asked him isn't that involved in the install fee he said no because " my spoiler is wrong and he has to make two of his own holes" I tell him fine okay. I showed up to the place to pick up my car and he broke one of my spoiler pieces because of the two holes he wanted to add so he made me pay extra and broke my piece. He fixed the piece in 2 days then I came in and he put it on gave me back my car and the whole spoiler was loose and not on tight. Theses people will rip you off and not give you a job. read more

5 STAR shop, 4 STAR review... Excellent service and advice from Edgar, I really felt that I could trust him for my paint job and I was not disappointed. Do NOT let the shop name fool you...he is legit! Had to take a star away for late completion on a Friday, mostly due to poor weather, but I was told it would be done and it wasn't. ..had to leave it over the weekend. Truck also received a minor ding while in his custody but he was upfront about it and I was offered compensation to make it right. Can't say that about most businesses.

For some people cars are not just a means of transportation, they are an extension of a individual's personality. Any one can pick out a car from a dealership and drive it off the lot. But it takes a creative spirit to spend the time and money necessary to create an automobile that draws looks wherever it rolls. Edgar Ramirez and the team at Pimp Ur Ride have been helping their customers express themselves since 2004. The company does not advertise in traditional ways. Instead, the cars they work on serve as rolling billboards. People are naturally curious and usually ask the owners "who did the custom work on your car?" Since his days in high school, Edgar has always been "messing around" with cars. "A friend of mine got me started," explains Edgar. He's been dedicated to this industry and his business ever since. A customer at the store, Trelisha "Pepper" Wallace, raves about her experiences here, "I love this place. Me and my husband come here for everything we need." She explains that it is not just the custom work that brings them back. "We come here when are car needs work. They do whatever we need. Under the hood, oil, new tires. It is the best service I have ever had." The custom paint jobs draw the most attention. The company recently painted a Chevy Blazer with a theme from the movie Scarface in mind. Half of the car was painted black, the other half white. It was complete with an Al Pacino-like figure holding a handgun on the hood. The cars with the unique paint jobs are the most visible but the company also does other jobs like spot painting, collision repair and they specialize in installing security alarms, rims, upholstery work and custom audio and video equipment. Pimping your ride does not have to be expensive. Even a small luxury, like a new stereo or set of speakers can enhance your daily commute. Finally, Pimp Ur Ride is one of the donors to the Make A Wish Foundation. They have done three cars as of the date of this article, but are already planning a fourth. This includes complete paint, new interior, wheels and tires. What a company! read more
