Default L.A.P.D. performance shop does it again!!!

Okay guys, I have to let you know exactly how cool these guys are!!!
First off, let me begin by telling you that I have gone to SEVERAL different "performance" shops before. While "some" shops clasify themselves as "performance centers," they are more like "butcher centers."
What makes L.A.P.D. different? Other than having a bitchen waiting room with a flat screen T.V. and mounds of car magazines, they LOVE doing what they do. They will pay close attention to the details. They will MAKE sure they don't scuff your car. Lastly, they will get the job done right the first time!!! Unlike other "performance shops" that treat Vettes like Hondas, L.A.P.D. will treat your machine like a prize!
They REALLY take pride in their work. They are not interested in finishing your car a.s.a.p. so they can simply move to the next one; rather, they want to make sure it is 100% perfect!!!
I had a Dewitts aluminum radiator installed today and they made sure the install was done right. They even made sure all the hose clamps were aligned the same way simply for looks!
I will NEVER go to any other "performance shop."
For those of you wanting the BEST, do yourself a favor and see these guys.

I've never been to their shop but i did business with these folks from here in Germany and I had really really good experience regarding flexibility, customer service and product quality. Very easy to work with and always helpful even after the deal was done. Highly recommended!
Thanks again Shawn.

regards

Markus
