Hi everyone,

My CPO has expired and I need to do some minor repairs to the beast. I live in So-cal in the Losangeles area...if anyone can recommend a shop here that would be terrific.

Thanks in advance

My sister has had her E60 at the M shop a few times since we live a few blocks away. I think Jon is the owner. Very chill guy and easy to deal with. Highly recommend them.

They are an authorized Dinan dealer so that should say a little about them. I was actually considering asking them for some pricing for a motor swap if I end up picking up that project car I was pondering. Must think about financial responsibility though... sigh..
