Havent been here for a while...looking for carshops and tint shops in SAC/Davis/SF

Sup guys, Merry Christmas. I havent been on Acurazine for about a good year or so, partly because I was broke and decided looking at people mod when I couldnt make me sad, but guess what, Im BACK.

Anyway, to get started im looking for car shops or people that are willing to help me install the stuff I plan to buy within the next few months:

Coilovers
Intake
Exhaust
Roof spoiler?

And im looking for a reputable place to get my tinting of my car done, probably 20% in the back and 35% front.

Lastly, does anyone know if its possible to fit the 04-06 Aspec kit onto a 07+ TL?

Have your thread moved to the regional section because not all of us are from SAC-TOWN

You can do the intake and roof spoiler yourself and maybe exhaust, not sure how it is on 3G TLs. and I have a friend that installs suspension stuff from his house.

I have a tint place with good prices too. but you need moleskin for your car so it doesnt scratch the tint.

Your probably better off getting shops from bay since your from there.

If you are in the SAC, greenback glass is pretty good and very reasonable. I think the owners name is Andrew. I could be wrong though, it has been a while.

Depending on the exhaust, that can be done at home.

For Davis - there was a tint place on 5th. Can't remember the name but I had mine done there and I was happy.

I'd look at Davis Muffler and Hoffman Auto for other work you need done. They are on 2nd about half a mile east of Sudwerks

I know a place in San Jose that does Carbon Suntek tint on all windows for 180. He has regular HP tint and that is 130 for all 5 windows. That is incredibly cheap. Hes a professional that does it out of his house as well. I believe the place is called Lifetime Tint.

Yeah, the tint shop was next to the DMV, pretty good place.

The muffler shop by napa auto parts across from in n out is really good. The guys name is charlie (if I recall correctly) I had work done at both places when I had my first 300ZX in davis.

Im gonna take my stock tips there to have them put on my new exhaust.

It turns out that its hard to find a good (competent) muffler shop.
