Big Thanks to Buckhead Imports!

Just wanted to give a shout out to the guys at Buckhead Imports in Vinnings. I had some alignment issues on my E55 and had taken it to a couple of shops to have them taken care of it. Neither of the shops was able to pinpoint the actual problems and one went so far as to say my frame was bent

So I took my car to Buckhead Imports in Vinnings. They were very professional from the get go. They brought me back to the bay and showed me exactly what the issue was. The PO had done the washer lowering method and the computer was setting the wrong ride height on my passenger side due to the washers. None of the other shops even noticed that. The guy working on my car took a lot of time to explain exactly what the issues were and how he was going to correct them. This was awesome because the usual, "we'll take care of it" line and then the tech disappears for hours makes me nervous.

They got the washers out, installed lowering links and reset the ride height and now she looks awesome and the job was done right. They definitely knew everything about the car and I realized that its not worth taking the E to anyone but true experts. Would have saved 800 bucks in tires if I had seen them first

I would highly recommend them to anyone, especially if you have an E55 as definitley know their stuff.

Umm what about the guys that travel all the way from the Alabama coast? LOL Will be seeing you guys VERY soon to install some headers. Trying to figure out my schedule as we speak so I can call you guys with some dates. Hopefully my dates will work with yours.

You guys are awesome and worth the drive!

E55
Been to BI twice and have been very pleased with the professionalism and overall service experience that Craig, Tony, and the team deliver. I've been very impressed with Tony - he has both the techincal know-how and the ability to run a business the right way. Craig is always instrumental in the process for me as well. Even though it is a 150 mile drive for me, I plan on bringing my E55 to them for all future needs!

+1,000 all the above. I ordered an ECU from BI awhile back an kept it shelved for a couple months when it arrived. Even still when I decided to no longer use it they refunded me no questions no problems. Communication/service was top notch.

Jumping in line to give credit where it's due, but yes -- I consider all of them (Jason, Craig, Tony) at BIP to be great friends, and I'd trust my car with them any day.

All the best,

Agreed!

Jason and Craig have a very strong passion for what they do. Great group with top notch service and communication.

I always look forward for any reason to head through GA.

Ahhhh, someone has been reading.

I'll def see you at Silverdollar. Then MIR, we can go ***** out. And yes, I may be running you down without the tq from the sc. I'll be practicing at PBiR as soon as we are done. Gotta data log and tweak before I head your way.
