Need a good exhaust installer and a powdercoating place - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

jibaholic101 · 01-03-2010, 05:45 PM

so i have exhaust coming as soon as the next batch of them is fabricated and i am looking for a place to get it installed.

i know i recommend speedware to a lot of people on this site, but after the email price quote i just received from them to install my BOLT ON CAT BACK exhaust, i wanted to laugh at their faces personally.

$375 FOR INSTALLATION

since i know this is not a labor intensive job, can someone recommend me a place to get it installed where i wont be charged that much for something that should take less than an hour?

also, i would like to get the tips powdercoated OEM shadowline, so I need a recommendation of a place for powdercoating as well!

THANKS GUYS!

i can talk to my uncle (he owns a shop) and they can do the install for you at a fraction of that price. they stand behind their work and they are very knowledgeable. let me know if you want me to do that. i can come with you also.

haha btw what exhaust did you get?

jibaholic101 · 01-03-2010, 07:43 PM

how much could they do it for derrick?

D.yi · 01-03-2010, 08:42 PM

mechanicshop that i go to charged like 2 hours of labor but then that includes trimming my rear bumper for the quads so if you are just installing dual, it should be cheap. contact them and tell them david with bmw 335i sent you.
