I was referred here to get my truck smogged and had a great experience. Even with a couple of customers ahead of me, the gentleman working was incredibly efficient and clearly worked very hard to keep things moving. [[HIGHLIGHT]]He stayed professional the entire time, had a great sense of humor, and made the wait feel easy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was quick, straightforward, and well-done. You can tell he takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about customer service. I'll absolutely be returning when it's time to get my truck checked again in a couple of years. Highly recommend. read more

Quick..no appt necessary..I will use next time. Tip go on a Saturday, yhe surrounding businesses are closed, making easier to get in and out. read more

Still going strong! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mr. Kim at Sky Smog in Torrance is doing his thing just like always. He's got the same no-nonsense demeanor--maybe a little gruff, but I think it's more of a language barrier than anything else.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Bottom line: he's quick, efficient, and gets the job done. When I showed up, he was already working on an older car, but he actually prioritized me and got my smog check done in under 10 minutes. Super appreciated that! The price is solid and fair, and you can tell he knows what he's doing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not here to chat, just here to work--and honestly, I respect it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I always try to support small, local businesses doing honest work and trying to make ends meet, and Mr. Kim's shop is exactly that. If you want fast, reliable service at a good price, Kim's still the guy. read more

Reasonable & the owner is no-nonsense. It's tucked away behind an auto body & car repair garages so you need to patiently navigate the area to his garage port but it's well worth it. We've used Sky Smog over the past few years and really appreciate the no-nonsense service. read more

Great! I did get lost getting here, there isn't a big sign on Hawthorne Blvd to spot it, but glad I got there! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Owner is friendly and nice[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], the dmv got the certification electrically quickly within a few hours (possibly sooner, but I didn't check). Listen to him though when he says at least wait 24 hours, the DMV gets impacted and its website funky when it comes to registration renewal. read more

When in to my Smart Car done. I was in and out in about 10 minutes. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Single car operation operated by a very nice gentleman.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would highly recommend this place. Definitely call before you go in. read more

When the smog station near my house closed down, I needed to find a new one and I definitely got lucky with Sky Smog. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The owner (Mr. Kim) is really efficient, friendly, and honest.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] No appointment necessary and he got me in and out in fifteen minutes. There's even a $10 off coupon on the website that he honors if you just show it to him on your phone. No one likes having to smog their car, but it doesn't get easier than this. Highly recommend and will be back in two years when I have to do it again. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Good experience all the way around.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I went first thing in the morning. Mr. Kim already had the first car processing when I arrived (just 4 minutes after open). There were a total of two cars ahead of me and I was still out within an hour. A couple of things to note: -I brought the coupon but Mr. Kim applied the coupon before I even showed him. I saw reviews with mixed results but I didn't have a problem at all. -[[HIGHLIGHT]]Mr. Kim is friendly. Going off the reviews, I expected a stone cold smog assassin. He made light conversation, smiled and was efficient. Customer service exceeded my expectations based on the reviews.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] -Mr. Kim is efficient. -I believe I paid $50 total with the coupon. -I cannot speak to how the process works if a vehicle fails. Great experience overall. This is definitely the spot to get a smog test. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Quick. Efficient. Friendly. Consultative.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And the best priced smog in the South Bay. Visit tge website for a $10 coupon too. Service was exactly as I expected. read more

This place is awesome. Quick and efficient. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you want someone to focus all their attention on one person at a time and wait longer, maybe this place is not for you[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. But if you want a specialist to stagger the waiting customers and dramatically cut down the wait times (literally almost no wasted movements) . He knows how to manage all that to get you out quickly. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Owner is awesome.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very friendly quick would recommend this for people to come here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He gave a good discount. read more

Quick service. 10-15 min in and out. Prices are average. $50 for our Honda CR-V. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Only issue was that he was not the friendliest person in the world.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I guess would you be happy working on Christmas Eve? Probably not. But it is a service, so cheer up!! :) If you are looking for a smog and are in a time crunch, it's the place to go! read more

I have an old Miata. No appt and he happily smog tested. Fixed a window stripping at the same time free of charge [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice guy![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Even though I had to wait a bit to get my smog test, I felt like (Mr. Kim I believe, based on other reviews) is very efficient and moves like clockwork. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I hope he takes breaks and has other employees, because the man was working hard, and he probably has done that nearly every day for years.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If I had been the only one there, I probably would have gotten in and out in like 10-15 minutes. I would recommend, but when I went around 11:00 am it was fairly busy, so definitely try to go earlier as the space is a quite packed. read more

Excellent place for your small check look no further because this is fast easy and exactly the type of business do you want to go back to in fact I only lived in Torrance for four years but I have gone here twice! Once for my Volvo Convertible and then four years later for Ford Focus. They have a place to sit they are honest with you about how long you might have to wait and they get you in and out the door more quickly than most places can make you a burger in this one horse town. Highly recommended! read more

Got the coupon off their website and drove in unannounced on Monday around 4pm (they are hidden way behind the enterprise rental car store). The mechanic was just finishing up one car and starting to test another. Took me under 20 minutes to get my car tested and just $50 for the test with a coupon. read more

Sky Smog is one of the many smog check station in the area. Why do I go here? I honestly don't know. I've been coming here for years. I am even not sure if their prices are competitive with the guy down the street. All I know is the place gives me friendly enough service and I am in and out in no time. Good enough for me. Next time? I think my one of my other cars is due for a check. read more
