Hey Guys,

Can anyone recommend a shop in the San Mateo CA area.
I'm finally going to take the plunge and get a rep M kit- but I need to find a place that's close and not too expensive for paint and install.

Thanks

I strongly recommend an additional 15 min drive further south to Sonic MS in Mountain View.
They've done alot of work for Bay Area folks (including me).

Also check out Sam at Sleek Motoring - he did my window tints (also in Mountain View).

You can't go wrong either way and is worth the 15 minute drive.

You can get the kit from Umnitza, or Trinity, and I can handle the rest for you.

Hit up Sam at Sleek motoring. He does excellent work. My paintjob for my front bumper was flawless and he somehow got my badly shaped splitter from umnitza to fit on my bumper.

Anyone know if Sonic is doing the M-tech kits still? It was around 2500$ installed with paint. Didn't seem like too much more than if one went with a rep kit.
