Any Los Angeles Area Shop Reccommendations
Hey guys... just wondering if any of you fellow Los Angelinos know of any good shops you can reccommend for the following:
Alignment (will need one after installing my PSS9 and camber kit next week at HMS. Downtown LA MBZ said they'll do it for $129. Is that about the going rate?)
Tint (Want a tint that looks kinda like the factory blue tint, but slightly darker... Any tint reccomendations, percentage, etc too?)
Exhaust shop (have had my quad AMG tips for awhile and want to get them set up for when I get my AMG bodykit. I heard of Jerl's, but I'm not sure if I want to venture out to Riverside to get it done.)
Thanks guys if you have any leads. I'd really appreciate it.

I just moved to LA about a year ago and I too am looking for a performance shop to have springs installed.
Check with this guy. I went to him for Service B and it cost me about 250-280. I am not sure if he had alignment equipment in his shop. Picked him from Yelp.

Just had my coilovers, camber arms and my brake rotors and pads installed at HMS in Westminster. The guys are pretty cool. Got it all installed for $540. They had a lot of MB's being worked on there. They had a couple SL's, GLK's, CLS's and it's nice to know that the guys that run the shop drive MB's as well.
I think I'm going to just hit up the MB shop in downtown LA. It's a few blocks from my apt.

When we going to see some pics? Any difference in the ride after installing the camber kit? (Probably hard to tell since you installed the coilovers also)...

Yeah... I'll probably let you know after I get the alignment too. The guy at the shop said I should drive it around for a week to let things settle in first. Initially it looks like there is less camber, but it isn't perfectly straight.
