Any good shops in NC???

Yo just wondering what shops do you guys recommend in NC. I'm new in the forum so don't know much of shops around here. Currently I live in Sanford not many shops here. If you guys can recommend some shops it will be great you know any good shop that you go to install, repair or inspect your mods.....brakes....suspension....etc

Any help is appreciated......

None. There are no good shops in NC. If you want to risk it, you can try Phantasm, but I would not recommend them to anyone!

Tuner Solutions is **** too. Plus, they mostly do engine swaps. With Brandon and Wes gone from TS, I would not let them check the air in my tires. Same with Phantasm. They have shotty mechanics and insane prices. What do you need done? PM me with your info and maybe we can get up sometime.

bring it on over to MECC in greensboro, lol. we're a greensboro based maxima crew, lol.

na, but seriously, if its for something like suspension, brakes, mods, we've been there done that. sometimes in the middle of the night with one LED flashlight. we're by no means a professional shop or anything, just a bunch of maxima guys that like to work on the cars and can always use another gearhead to chill with and work on the cars with. plus, its a good learning experience to do something yourself.
