Where can I get exhaust/performance work done in northern california?

CPD SLK · 04-16-2008

I've heard of Eurolites, but I keep calling them with no answer. Nobody has returned my voicemails or my emails either...what's going on with them?

Anyone else have suggestions as to where I can take my SLK. I'd like to just go to one place and don't trust an xehaust shop to route the wiring for me electric cutouts.

Thanks!

PS - Any members that could help me out, haha?

Eurolites is out of business from what I can tell, search mbworld and see what went wrong. It all started about a member being not satisfied with the costs that were accumulating after the install of certain performance modifications.

Since your in california, I would head for CEC- Brabus. Btw, Nice to see you here.

Well..I dont really want to have to go to LA to get the work done...besisdes...if there is an issue with it, I dont want the shop to be like 700 miles away.

Any other shops in California, closer to my neck of the woods. It can even be a competent custo mshop as long as you'd trust them to do wiring of the cutouts throughout your SLK, haha?

Have you seen an SLK with cutouts yet? Or, do you wish someone to fabricate it from scratch?

I haven't seen one yet, no. All I am gonna need done is to weld in a x-pipe (gonna prolly get a magnaflow x-pipe) in place of the resonator, and then place two QTP (quick time performance) electronic cutouts inline right after the x-pipe splits into a "V" towards the rear of the car. I am not worried about the exhaust work, but don't want an icompetent exhaust shop doing the wiring and removing dash panels (etc....) to complete the electronic side of things...

Any ideas of a good shop or a member who might be willing to do it for pay?

FYI...

That's a very cool setup. I'm definitely interested in seeing/hearing the results. I know there's a few shops in the bay area. I just can't think of their names at the time.

Haha....these nameless shops aren't proving helpful

I'll do my best to get clips put up once I get the work done..assuming I can find someone to help me install everything and do the wiring....

Anyone else know a good place in northern california (the bay area to be more exact)?

Humm... good thing I didn't let them touch my baby then. I'm still sitting on JLiu's headers also looking for a quality place to do the install. The guy (Adam) seemed eager, but the "shop" could have been cleaner/ more professional- thats what held me back.

I'll have to check out the place in burlingame as i also want to find a local shop.
