Some shops in the South bay that get good word of mouth - B-Line in SJ & Dell autobody/Exotic Autoworks in Campbell. Don't have 1st hand experience - I used International autobody in Burlingame if you are willing to drive down 101

I'm not gonna recommend the place had my springs installed. I had a very bad experience with them. First they ordered the wrong wheel after I waiting 2 1/2 months for them. They installed my new TPMS sensors I ordered from them into my old stock wheels and took my stock sensors and put those in my new wheel. Them thinking I wouldn't find out. But I have marked my wheels and tires with sharpie before taking it to them.. Anyhow stay away from California Wheels. But if you decide to go there make sure everything is on the invoice.

Here some pics with H&R springs installed. IDK they are not as low as expected. I was told they'll settle in time. I sure hope they do





I just got my M-Tech bumper yesterday and test fitted it. Fitment was spot on. I'll be dropping it off to paint shop tomorrow. PM me if you like take it to the same place. He's using quality European paint

Bumper is painted I just finish installing. I still need to do a little wet sanding on the bottom but other than that the car looks great. Can wait till I get my Vorsteiner CF front lip. It should arrive this Thuesday.

M535... getting together for drive sounds good.
