Any shop willing to help me with catback installation? (No more PM Please! :D) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hi guys,

Sorry If this is redundant post.

I couldn't really find any shops around my area so I wanted to post a thread here and see who I find.

So my question is I will be getting my new catback next Tuesday and I am thinking about installing the catback sometime next Saturday (preferrably in the early morning or before noon at latest)

I live at the zip code of 07045 in NJ and was wondering if there are any shops that could help me with the installation. (You can PM me with prices!

)

Also, I am looking for a shop that don't use or little if any machines to unbolt screws and all that for the work.

Lastly, I would want to be able to see the work being done.

Lot of places I inquired said they wouldn't let me for some reason but let's see if there are any place(s) that will allow me to stay close (not TOO close) and see the installation work.

Let me know if there are any that can help me!

Why not just do it yourself?

It took me and a buddy 20-30 minutes to install my Perrin catback exhaust. Granted he's got a lift, but as long as you got jack stands I would diy.

I know this is not what you are asking for but suppose this is plan B and a member has all these things. If you were in Va I'd help you out.

The shop pays insurance and it is probably stipulated customers are not allowed in the work area. Many shops may be lax about this, but unless you are friends with the owner I doubt they would actually let you work on it. Hanging around the bay is one thing, wrench under the lift is another.

Right.

I mean I don't have to help but I just wanted to see for myself so I can ask them to adjust the tip to right/left/up/down so it'll have perfect fit.

Thanks for your attention but unfortunately I'm in NJ and to get to Fresh Meadows I'll have to cross G.W Bridge and all so it's not feasible.. but thanks!

I used to live in Fresh Meadows in 2003-2004.. went to George J. Ryan Middle School or I think MS 216 they call it? Then moved here to NJ
