When I was calling around to check on availability and prices to have a backup camera and dashcam…read moreinstalled on my '09 Frontier, all of them mostly in Augusta (about 4 or 5 establishments) quoted me prices but never went to details. I knew that it was never the final price when you get there. I was hoping they'll be nice enough to tell me more... if they want my business, right? Then I called 1 Chance Auto Accessories, in Aiken, which is farther away from me. I asked the gentleman on the other end, Michael, the same questions expecting the same type of response and to my surprise, he invited me to visit the store so he can explain and see my options. When I got there, he helped me right away. Even though it got busier, his focus was on me. Not an ounce of a "car-salesman mentality". I never felt pressured to buy anything and I was not rushed. He then gave me a printed quote. We set up a schedule for installation. Well, here I am writing a review that is very well deserved. It was worth my time to post this because he covered every area of customer service, professionalism, quality of product and installation, and value for your money. Just like his business name, Michael has only 1 chance to prove to you he is worth it. I thank you for your service, Michael ... in every way.

As a music aficionado, if you are serious about your car audio and you're in the Augusta CSRA -…read moreHERE'S YOUR SPOT. Ok. I'm always looking for a good deal and usually willing to take a risk when it comes to lower prices. However, in my twenty years plus 20 extra years of wisdom, I've learned a few things in life where you don't skimp on the cost. Like toilet paper, ketchup, automatic dishwashing detergent, paper towels, laundry detergent, sour cream, tampons (sorry dudes), and car audio. DO NOT LET THE LOOKS OR THE LOCATION OF THIS PLACE DETER YOU. THESE GUYS KNOW THEIR SHIT. So I just purchased a Jeep and have to trick it out like I'm 20, because I guess I'm on some cliche girly mid life crisis in my 40's (don't judge me). I had them install a new head unit, four 6" speakers, a 10" sub, and a 5 channel amp. So I go to pick up my Purple People Eater (yes, that's my Jeep's name, don't judge me) and they turn on my stereo. I can already tell that it sounds amazing and the volume is only on 5. The young man says "no, wait"...gives me the sneakiest grin ever and turns up the volume. So I tell him I'm going to put on some "loud, ignorant shit" and put on a few songs heavy on the 808's. OH.MY.GOD. This was the cleanest, loudest, most amazing sound I've ever heard in my entire life. No lie. It sounds like I'm at a concert hall, listening to my favorite artists. The sound is crisp, clean, and clear, and the bass is SICK, but I can still hear the mids and treble with NO problem. So there are two parts to a stereo install. The first is the quality of the wiring and the sound (which is partially dependent upon what kind of equipment YOU purchase). The second is how neatly it is installed. You can't see the wires, the amp, nothing. You can't even tell that they installed aftermarket equipment in my jeep, which is important. I don't want my stereo install to look like a DIY home job. This was the most beautiful install I've ever seen, and I've had MANY aftermarket stereos installed in many vehicles. They configured all the custom stuff I needed to control my system without looking like an idiot, and walked me through how to use it. They even offered for me to come back and "adjust" the sound of the system if it wasn't to my liking, free of charge. Now that's what I call customer service. Service - top notch. Quality - top notch. Pricing - reasonable (and I say this with the disclaimer YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. You pay $100 for a stereo install, you're going to get a $100 stereo install. Good luck with that if you pay $100 for an install *kanye shrug*. And TRUST and BELIEVE I have learned the hard way). Go see these guys. They'll treat you right. I'll post a few photos later of the install. #supportlocal #supportsmallbusiness #augusta

These guys provided quick and professional service. I called them for information about the service…read moreand they were able to do it the next day within three hours. They know what they're doing. I have a 2018 Toyota Corolla that doesn't have Apple car play. They installed a new Sony system that was compatible with Apple Car Play and even a microphone. They connected the Sony System to my steering wheel buttons. Now I can see my Google maps on the screen instead of looking on my phone. This upgrade has made driving much safer for me. Altogether the service cost $840 with a military discount. The only thing I wish they could have done was connect the usb cable to the usb port in my car instead of having it come out of my glove compartment.

He is prompt, professional, and reasonably priced…read more Very few Companies actually install car stereos and entertainment systems these days, especially in the Columbia area. The popular local chain is quite overpriced and their work and quality varies from location to location and from job to job. This guy is consistently professional based on everyone who has recommended him and based on my experience. He's essentially a one man show that occasionally has his son work on the vehicles with him. He's been doing this for over 20 years and he's the only one that I would trust with most classic vehicles. I was deliberate with what it was that I wanted and he delivered! He also will help you design a system and build the components to make it work for your own specific vehicle and the product that you want. He does rims and tires as well, and if that's what you're looking for I would imagine that he does a great job with that too based on the customers vehicles that I saw firsthand while I was there. This business is excellent!

They did this to my Jaguar xk and broke both door panels and my tweeter housing which is part of the door .The car was in his possession for over 6 days. Upon pick up he tells me he used 2 tubes of silicone to glue my doors back together and he broke my tweeter cover. I called to rectify the situation and the owner James responds with a nasty childlike attitude.Then he asks me why I'm calling him so early and tells me he will call me back. It's been over a week now and now and when I call he's never there. They are great at taking your money but refuse to replace something if and when they break it . I just wanted my vehicle back in the condition it was to begin with. What is so hard about that? I would NOT recommend taking any luxury car here for a tint job bc apparently when they break something they will refuse to fix it. They will then blame the car and complain how difficult it was to work on. How about this,dont take a job on if you dont have the knowledge or expertise of doing it properly! Very dissatisfied!

There was a small issue with headlight aim afterward that affected my nighttime visibility, but when I brought it back to their attention, they took the time to re-check and dial everything in properly. What really stood out to me was that they didn't brush me off -- they worked through it and made sure the final result was right. That level of accountability means a lot. The lights look fantastic now and perform exactly how they should. If you're looking for a shop that stands behind their work and makes things right, I'd recommend them.
