    20 inch Rotiform rims + red brake calipers

    TL;DR - Status has very friendly employees but the quality of work highly depends on whether you are a celebrity &/or how expensive your car is. I have a 4 series BMW and have been retaining their services for 2 years now - the only reason why it has been this long is because I am young, dumb & was too lazy to research other shops in the area. Their lack of attention to detail, lack of priority for your car when they make mistakes, & questionable ability/skill to perform jobs is what has led me to write this review. I have already been to one other shop to re-do work they have done & am currently searching to pay for another shop to double-check other work they have done as I no longer trust it. Below I detail all the work they have done & rated it accordingly as much as I could due to character limit: 1. 5 Stars: a. Rims - 20 inch Rotiform (pic #1 - Apr'17) b. Painted red brake calipers (pic #1 - Apr '17) c. Gloss black rims (pic #2 - Dec '17) d. AFE Cold air intake (pic #3 - Dec '17). e. JB4 tune (pic #4 - forgot date). 2. 3 Stars: a. Msport bumper conversion - I was in an accident & decided to use the insurance claim money for an Msport bumper. The bumper itself is beautiful (attached pic from Dec 2018 #7). Despite the substantial damage to the front, Status did not test drive/think to check the sensors in the front. After receiving the car, I realized they didnt work and had to purchase them at a later date, which was annoying. After a few months I opened my hood for the first time & closed it, but it was in an odd position. One side would be closed more than the other, etc. I opened/closed 20+ times to no avail. See pictures attached from May 2019 #7 w/ yellow arrows, when this occurred. (I assumed this was from the Msport bumper conversion but to be honest I cannot confirm). After they installed my ER IC it was perfectly flush. Said it was because I "didn't fully close the hood." Based on the pics you can be the judge. It's perfect now though. 3. 1 Star: a. Subwoofer/amp installation (negative stars if possible) - I had someone install a subwoofer/amp in the summer of '17 & they did a poor job so I had Status re-do the installation with all new wires, etc. in Dec 2017. At first, it worked great. 3-6 months later it stopped working so I brought it back to them & they "fixed" it. I think this happened one more time. After yet another time I hire a different shop to re-wire it. The new shop they shows me pictures of before & after. They explain/show me that two wires weren't connected, two wires plugged into the wrong spot (wrong +/-), they drilled into the metal floor of my car instead of putting a false floor (I can confirm this was not done by the original person from summer '17), did not use the correct wire for one instance which could damage my car's CPU, & they wired it so the amp would be on 24/7, regardless if the car was on/off. They said & I quote, "Did you have a friend do this job? Because this is not professionally done." They would not send me the pics as evidence as they do not want to strain relationships with other store owners they know. To top it off, I paid less than half of what Status charged me! b. Gloss black roof wrap & mirror wrap - May 2019 - This job was severely rushed. Instead of keeping it for an extra day, they had me show up at closing and wait for them to "finish." Part of the wrap on the "fin" of the BMW roof wasn't smoothed down so I had to do it myself with my finger (no pic as it was reactionary). They left white residue on both side mirrors (pic #8 attached) so I had to bring it back to be removed. A week later both the mirrors start peeling on the same spots (Pic #8 attached). After 2 weeks the peeling was so bad I could've grabbed it & started to peel it off if I wanted (no pics). I once again had to have them fix this. c. ER intercooler/ER chargepipe/ER TIC pipe - July 2019 - My car was running perfect prior to the install. The install took 2-3 days, picked up Saturday. I immediately felt it was slower.30-60mins later I get a check engine light (pic #9). Earliest appt. they had was Thurs and I didn't feel safe driving the car. Friday they determined o-ring was the issue, despite admitting "physically it looked fine."when I brought it. Didn't finish until Tuesday evening. Despite my car running perfectly fine before bringing it in &the admission that the o rings looked physically fine & the fact that the check engine light popped up 30-60mins after leaving their shop the first time (i.e. all signs they were liable) they still charged me for parts & labor. They left trash inside (pic #9), black smudges all over the driver side panel (pic #9) Again, there is no attention to detail & just blatant disrespect for another person's vehicle - especially when I'm bringing it back to fix a mistake they made. After what was discovered in my subwoofer/amp installation review, I am currently searching to pay other shops to double check the work that Status has done.

    Had my 2016 Porsche GT3RS outfitted with a K40 Rl360i by Status Motoring and I was so happy with the installation and the job. Great service, professional installation and a knowledgeable staff. Would definitely recommend. A+++++

    Took my 1987 Grand National here for tires and mounting onto custom rims. That did an unbelievable job, I couldn't be more happy with the job and the service. This is a top notch place for high end custom work!

From start to finish, Anthony (the owner) made the entire process smooth, professional, and honestly stress-free. He took the time to walk me through everything I was adding to my BMW X3 and made sure I understood each upgrade before moving forward. I had a Pioneer 3500NEX installed, along with a backup camera, steering wheel control integration, full wiring harness kit, and LED lighting upgrades. Everything was done clean, properly integrated, and with real attention to detail. No loose ends, no shortcuts -- just solid, quality work. What stood out the most was how Anthony runs his shop. He's hands-on, transparent about pricing, and clearly takes pride in making sure the final result looks and works exactly how it should. You can tell this isn't just a business to him -- he actually cares about the outcome and customer satisfaction. The install came out super clean, OEM-like, and the system works flawlessly. My car honestly feels upgraded to a whole new level. If you're thinking about getting audio, lighting, or any car electronics done, I highly recommend PNA Auto Sport. Ask for Anthony -- you'll be in good hands. Definitely coming back for future upgrades.

    Trusting Becker Autosound Cost Us $9000. A Six Month Saga…read more We bought a refurbished and upgraded PCM (stereo/ nav) from Becker Autosound to replace a unit that was showing signs of age. After installation we discovered that the Becker unit would not produce any sound. We contacted Becker and were connected with the person who had refurbished it, Tom. He blamed our installer. The installer took the vehicle back and attempted to fix but was unable to. I then brought the vehicle to a certified Porsche mechanic. He removed the unit, checked all the wiring and reinstalled. Still there was no sound. Upon bringing the vehicle home a new failure appeared. The left half of the screen went blank and what should have been displayed on the left side was now shown on the right. This impacted all functions; stereo, navigation, back up camera, etc. I reported this to Becker who took the unit back and spent a couple weeks evaluating it. The unit was refurbished again, which involved replacing a board or two. Once we received the unit back we had it installed again and the unit still would not produce sound. Becker took the unit back again, refurbished it a third time and charged the shop $800. Upon return the unit still did not work. Becker took the unit back and promised to expedite their evaluation. We heard nothing for weeks. Calls were not returned. Finally Tom called and said he could not repair the unit but would source another to refurbish as replacement. We waited several more weeks while they purchased and tested all the used units available on eBay. We were then told that Becker would not certify any of those units and would simply process a refund of our original purchase. With every eBay unit claimed by Becker our only option was to purchase a brand new unit direct from Porsche, fulfilled through Germany with a lead time of 2-12 months. Tom followed up repeatedly about refunding our purchase price while I took a couple of weeks to organize all the invoices. I sent them to Tom with a request that Becker cover four out of five of the installation costs incurred at Becker's direction. This still results in a $3600 loss for us. We are also left with an incomplete (not legally salable without backup camera) vehicle for up to 10 more months from the date of this review. I have followed up repeatedly over the last two months and seen no response and no refunds, even for the purchase price of the defective Becker Certified unit. If any of this sounds incredible scroll down to other reviews from customer with similar experiences, though I sure hope no one was injured as badly as we were. Cost Summary Becker refurbished unit: $2283.97 Installation attempts (4): $2603.06 Replacement unit new from Porsche: $3290.19 Final install (future): $800 (est.) TOTAL: $8977.22
