Garage That Knows Acura In Vancouver BC

Does anyone know any good garage that knows Acura cars (especially TLs) in Vancouver BC? Don't know many Vancouver members in the forum, but if there are any, where do you guys go to get your car stuff done?

Thanks!

For service, I take it to my uncle's garage on Bridgeport, he does great work for me, for free too! But if he knows you're my friend, he might be able to work out a cheap price for you too! He does all my oilchange and tire rotations etc. for me.

For cosmetic things, you can always goto Revspot or Advanced Motorsports, many aftermarket parts garage would do great jobs in Vancouver. Advance does great job, they do OMP Prelude's and Lookinco's s/c'ed TL's. When Comptech TL-S S/C comes in production, I might just take it to Advance to work something out! *hint hint* LOL

P.S - You want your headlights cleared? I'm looking for someone to do this with me, I hate doing it myself cuz I'm all lazy and shit. We can do both our cars at the same time! I have a friend who can help as well! I just need a place/garage to do it at cuz my garage is WAY too messy. I have parts lying around and stuff. Plus, my STI is sitting in there with no wheels and brake discs on. lol

I will vouch for Advance Motorsport in Coquitlam as I got a few things done there such as installing the AEM Cold Air Intake and a Voltage Stablizer. Go ask for Ken or Frances. However, I did goto Garage Five for my Coilovers. There prices are a bit cheaper compare to Advance but I find Advance give better service.

No, he lives in Surrey with a huge air compressor in the garage, so basically he can do many things there.
