Anyone work closely with an auto workshop in the metro Boston area?

Hi guys,

I'm itching to start some basic mods on my car and perhaps eventually lead to more significant performance mods in the future. Therefore, I'm wondering if any of you guys in the area have ever worked closely with any auto workshops that do things such as install suspension, performance body parts, light tune? Trusty mechanics?

I used to own a 1999 honda prelude back in St. Louis and I developed a very good/friendly relationship with a local shop working with them for 3 years. They helped install everything on my car, and thats quite a bit of stuff. What can I say, I'm a car nut Despite the fact that I only want light mods, I'm looking for the same thing here in Boston if anyone can suggest a place. (I'm stationed in Watertown, off exit 17 on I90)

Thanks in advance!

I highly recommend David as well. He's done a great job on my coil over install and is very knowledgable on all BMWs.
