South Florida peeps (Miami) need your recomendations!!

[krill328]

I just recently purchased my Si. I live in Miami and wanted to know what is the best shop you guys reccomend for purchasing stuff and getting it installed. I am looking for good prices and quality as well. Stuff like HID's and body parts as well and eventually engine mods.

Recomendations?

P.S. I am in Kendall area.

Im in the Kendall area as well. I have a TW coupe on white volks. It's probably the only white on white SI in our area. In all honesty there aren't good quality shops around. JR electronics sucks and have very rude employees. The better shop around i would say is Power Wheels. They have a mickey mouse bay area but they have a great owner and great employees. I had my springs installed there and i bought my HID's there as well. They are a little cheaper than JR and treat you great

Yeah I remember you from another thread. Your work right down my street at the walgreens. I pass by there every now and then through the drive through to pick up meds. Your shyt is nice. I got a black FA5. How much did you end up paying for you HID's installed and what temp were they.

Thank you. $200 versus JR's $300 and im running 8k. If you pass by the pharmacy i had to have seen you a few times. I know a lot of my customers. You don't know how much i hate not being able to hear/see my car while i'm working. You should come through one day so i can check out the ride and so you can check out my HID temp. Let me know

Yeah man sounds good. When do you usually get off at? BTW do you have HID's in the fogs as well?

[Marc539]

I have a black FA5 too in Kendall.. I think i've seen you around.

Also seen a Black FA5 with amber lights and a drop.

dyi, theres pleny of write ups on the forum you can use to install your own hids.
only thing I would ever go to a shop for is mechanical issues.. (if the dealer doesnt cover it)

Go to Wheels Boutique on Bird Road. Chris {the Tech} is awesome and does great job and the owners Ben and Carlos are A+ type of people. Call them @ 786-249-0127. Tell them that Chris with the red S2000 and nitrous kit sent you.

My friend Adrian works at the Walgreens on 8th street and 137th. He's the shift manager I think.

Is that the one you work at?

[SpeedDemon]

Get your shit online, thats the best way.

**** going to Merrys, and JR electronics, the only thing I get at Merrys is my oil.

Hey I dont know you but, ive seen your HIDs right after the girl in your neighborhood told me that you had the same ones as me which means you really dont have 8k, 12k is more like it unless you've change your hids to the blue. I dont go to that girls house much anymore, but soon I might be.

Im sure you've seen my car in your street, so dont say you havent seen it.

[Project Man FG 4dr]

No 1 listen to this guy, sorry. Best advise is to talk to them through the phone, and never visit.
