Has anyone used Edge Motorworks for performance upgrades (shifters, BBK, pulley, etc)? If so, how was your experience?

FYI the Hookers section should be updated, as Erotic Services have been replaced with Adult Services.

They do great job, I used to go there with my previous BMWs,
But no great price anymore (They quoted me $800+ for spring installation)
I see you are from San Jose, go to SonicMS in Mtn. View.

[Mx3]

anyone used either of these two for tint? Thanks

I got my tint done at King Tint (3M 35% all around).

[M3luvr]

I got my tint at King Tint also. Douglas did a good job. Recommended him to my friends too.

[johnhk79]

updated.

[Cali convertible]

Use rocky mountain tint in Livermore worth the drive, he is anal.

[8_is_enough]

Any recommendations for PDR/ding removals?

[Centurion83]

Anybody have any experience with omega or transparent bra. I want to have a ventureshield put on my 2010 M3 and I live in the Eastbay. Recommendations greatly appreciated.
