Shops in San Gabriel Valley, CA
New 2015 GS 350 RWD F Sport owner here. Nebula Gray with Black interior. No pics yet, she's bone stock so you guys don't want to see it anyways 
I'm getting the itch already to do some mods. Are there any good reputable shops in SoCal - San Gabriel Valley area anyone can recommend?
I see 168 Motorsport is highly recommended, but they're too far in Torrance.
I'm looking to drop on Tanabe NF210, maybe some 20's and exhaust. Still doing research, not sure what I'm going to do yet.

You can always take it to Promax Motorsports on Mission and Garfield Ave. lol. I'm surprised that place is still in business - I remember having them install my blue underglow on my then 2004 Acura TSX close to 12 years ago.

It's sad to say but the modding scene isn't the hype it is now like it was back then when it was made popular by Fast and the Furious movies. Everybody in SGV just drives stock cars now.

Check out TN Auto Inspired on IG. Located in the 626 area. I got all my work done at his shop so far and going to install bags very soon by him as well. Tell him Sam sent you with the white 2016 GS.
Good luck!

There's Impex Motorsports on Valley and Temple City Blvd, right next to the Jiffy Lube.

Its pretty easy with plastidip. Theres lots of videos on it if you have never done it before. I've dipped whole cars before with a sprayer but plan on just using cans for ease of use. I have some new black metallic cans on order so I can have a gloss black look for the trim, rather than a matte finish with just the black cans you get at the stores. If you want any tips or videos let me know, its really straight forward and reverseable if you don't like it.

Its the other way around. Modding scene was first then The Fast and the Furious was made to capitalize on the scene.
