It's the quality of the individual doing the work and not necessarily the shop he works in.


I agree! Many fancy places put lots of money into ads and everything else so they have to have higher prices. There are some really good small shops that do awesome work. For example I wanted my Audi windows tented so the dealer referred me to a place in Red Bank when I got there I was like this is a hole in the wall till I went in the shop and saw a R8, Tesla, and a RR being tented and a Panamera half torn apart getting a backup camera. Go by work not by looks as tempting as it is :-) I'll see if I can dig up my truck pics to show you what they did for me.
