JDL Auto Design

I just wanted to give a quick review of my experience with JDL Auto Design.

I bought a Header and a titanium-coated demo model Overpipe from them about a month ago. I ended up with an exhaust leak from the overpipe, which looked to be from the flanges being thinner on the demo model than their current production model.

I called Jesse up and, being local, I drove down to the shop where he reinstalled my factory overpipe, cut off the old flanges, welded on some new ones and sent it back in for another coating - all at NO COST to me. Once the overpipe came back in, he reinstalled it for me and even helped me out with a rattling that I had coming from my axleback exhaust. That being said, I am extremely happy with the way that Jesse runs his shop and everyone there is extremely courteous.

The only downside is that there are only a few guys that work at the shop, so you may have to be patient for your parts. But the proof is in the products that they make and, in my opinion, they are WELL worth the wait. Quality work takes quality people and the parts that I have from JDL Auto Design have Quality written all over them.

Lifetime warranty on all of it too. If anything goes wrong with it, they'll cover you. Just like you said, you have to be patient, but its well worth it. I absolutely love my JDL UEL and I am waiting on my coated overpipe to come in so I can put on my quieter exhaust, lol.

Not yet, still on the car. Figure it will sell within a week, maybe a couple days.
