yes they don`t have a paint shop and they subcontracted to the other shops. Most places are not all in 1.
I went there beginning of the year to get my brake fluid change

I'm planning to get wheels, suspension, and M-kit for my 130i. So painting and workmanship does matter.... now I don't know where i should go. My M-kit for the 545i is installed at SPS, where painting is in-house. But they are freaking expensive!!! So, I won't go back.

And pingu, you said Max Motosport is in SungOn Street, but i thought that shop is called TW Autosport that specializes in VW and Audi. Maybe I should go and visit it anyway.

To be fair, this shop is not that bad, the painting is excellent, just the fit is not perfect but absolutely acceptable.
