SoCal guys, which shop do you take your IS to?

Looking for a reliable shop to install a bunch of my performance, suspension, lighting parts. Which shop do you go to? Also looking for a shop that does diagnoses and tune ups on our cars.

I usually go to

Corner 3 garage
Elite auto performance
Beach autowerks
Temple city auto repair?

the 2is isn't really "tune-able" in the sense of the word.

and if something went wrong w/ your 2is, most likely it'll have to end up back at a local dealership or lexus specialists for diagnostics/repairs.

but if you're looking for a garage that can handle aftermarket work...

I like Corner 3. They really know their stuff. Plus they're right down the street from my place.

But Tommy at Music Box comes highly recommended as well.

Both good shops to take it to.

Sometimes you gotta pay to play. Their work is excellent so I don't mind paying a little more for the Lexus.

Tommy has better prices but it's a little further for me to drive out there.

I'll co-sign on Corner 3. They're great guys and know what they're doing. I take my car and my wife's car there for any of our service needs. They're really honest and I think they're prices are fair for the service you get.
