Default Cypress (Houston) repair shops? Z06 needs some work.

I'm hoping to get recommendations for a shop near Cypress to take my C6 Z06 in for service.

issues:
- air bag warning light that comes and goes
- need a new clutch
- ALL my fluids flushed and replaced

I just honestly don't know who to call. I typically do not trust shops as I feel they are all dishonest unless I get recommendations.

Try;
Aero Car Care
11634 Cypress N. Houston Road
Cypress, Texas 77429
281-955-6327
They always have high performance and classic cars in the shop. Every employee there has respect for the cars they work on. I believe you will be very pleased with their service.

Haven't had any cause for service with my Vette, but I've had excellent experience with Skeeters on Huffmeister.

I would try Corvette World Houston. I personally know the Techs there and they know their Corvettes and do top notch work.

I've had all of my service/performance work done there and have no issues to report.

Franks vettes isn't too far. Really like them a lot. My vette is being flushes, aligned, a mod and new ceramics and picking it up today.

Taking 2920 it's only 25 minute drive.

Agree, Franks Vettes in Spring or Pristals Auto on Telge/fm2920 is the only place that works on mine if I don't.

I've been to most of them and the best work I've received is always at Late Model Racecraft. They've had to fix work I had done elsewhere along with several other things. It's all done right so far. My personal experience with Corvette World/Of Houston...Everything they've done has had to be redone. But to be fair that was awhile ago and things may be different now?

I will admit in the time that i have worked for Corvette World Houston we have gone through some rough patches with our service technicians at first. Out of the two years i have been here though we definitely have the best crew yet. We have two great technicians with all the experience you would need for any work on your late model Corvette. One has lots of performance and wiring experience coming from one of the biggest performance shops in Houston mentioned in this thread. The other worked with GM for 8 years and has every certification needed. We are always looking to help out our local Corvette Community and I hope that you would at least give us a chance to stop by the shop and meet with us.

Just had my shifter and cable replaced replaced in my 07 auto at Frank's. He had it done quick, for what I thought was a fair price.

Frank had my car fixed by Saturday afternoon. It was a tad spendy but everything I had issues with was taken care of.

He seemed like a pretty nice guy and obviously a Vette nut.
