Avoid finishline. There are plenty of other shops in atlanta. I prefer Batlground and Mainstream.

PLEASE I NEED OPINIONS OF THAT SHOP! WHAT DID YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT IT AND HIS THECHS AND FABRICATORS AND OWNER?


although i've met sae and he's a cool guy, i've never dealt with his shop. so i wouldnt be able to tell ya.. what exactly are you looking at doing?


tips:

1.get several pricing estimates
2. by all means avoid Batlground
3. check out the boards (on your car/make/model) and see if theres a place in GA that they have heard of or recommend

????????

[DRAG1JZ]

KEEP IT COMMING PLEASE!

[PhAtBoYMr2]

Tiger racing is my shop, and Topspeed is probaly one of the best shops around....and mainstream has turbo dave

i wouldnt let any other shops touch my car....for sure.

[PhAtBoYMr2]

and i have known sae for a long time, i cant knock his shop because i have never gotten any work there. I have been there a couple times before he opened it and I know that mike from finishline now works for tiger racing and he was one of there best techs up there....

[DrivenMind]

Good people to know, but a little hard to do business with sometimes. Juan was a great fabricator and Corolla nut, so I always took my car to him when it had any major issue. Sae's usually got decent people working for him, but he'll say anything to make a sale.

[bigpanda16]

juan rocked the house with his work
but pay at the finish line!!!

[DRAG1JZ]

KEEP IT COMING!

I HEARD JUAN IS NOT THERE ANYMORE! WHAT'S HAPPENS?

IS THAT TRUE HE IS A DAMM GOOD FABRICATOR?

[HiPSI]

????????


i thought you were talking about another shop and posted a recommendation, then figured out i had the wrong place in mind ;)

[HiPSI]

if you're looking for fabrication then talk to Mainstream/TurboDave.

[bigpanda16]

ditto that

[Julio]

I would stay away from any shops that was at a movie theather last night leaving there shop flyer in every car out there... I got a call last night at 1am, someone telling me this. sucks to not have any business.

Plenty of good shops out there, just do your homework.

[The Green Monster]

DON'T GO THERE...THEY TOOK 4 MONTHS TURBO A KA-T AND INSTALL IT IN A 240...OH WAIT...THEY STILL HAVEN'T FINISHED IT YET

[SL33P3R]

I say Mainstream

[Sirk]

Lethal Injection ftw!

[Senko]

ok, I have one thing to say, Expect anything at this shop to take a LONG TIME! good pricing though, but their work takes a long long time. also, if he says 3 days, he means at least 3 months.

[fawk_you]

You will get dicked over if you go through this shop. :)

[The Green Monster]

^^^Word...+1^^^

[DRAG1JZ]

YOU SEE GUYS THIS IS THE WAY YOU KNOW IF A PLACE IS GOOD TO GET YOUR CAR WORKED ON THANKS FOR YOUR ADVICE! PLEASE KEEP IT COMMING.

[The Green Monster]

there's one decent employee...Juan...who does the fabricating and shit...but he's pretty much the only one who does any work...and he's hardly there...then there's A.K....but he's the paper pusher...but my good friend...he's not mechanically inclined...he needs to quit there though...so if you read this A.K....QUIT!

[Vteckidd]

Turbo Dave does alot of the fabricting for FinishLine, an they dyno alot of their cars over here.

My best advice is to talk to previous customers an see if they were satisfied or not. Thats the best thing to do , relying on internet opinions can be biased and one sided

[The Green Monster]

yeah they do..juan...i'm a customer and i've spoken with the customers there, and they'll all vouch that they take forever...it doesn't take 4 months to turbo a ka and drop it in a shell...especially since they're to "specialize" in 240's...oh wait...4 months...they're still not finished with it...mp50's mr2 has been sitting in the same place with no motor or wheels on it for the past 2 months now...fuck that shop...it needs to be burned down...hence why my motor's for sale cuz i'm not payin them for the p.o.s. shell they tried to give me, when i was supposed to get a new shell painted and everything

:2up: finishline

I HEARD JAUN IS NOT THERE ANYMORE WHY?

[Stormhammer]

damn theyre STILL not done? wtf

[The Green Monster]

he prolly got fired...so the shop is real shitty now...i'll have to go by there when i get my civic running

[DRAG1JZ]

he prolly got fired...so the shop is real shitty now...i'll have to go by there when i get my civic running

DID YOU THINK HE GOT FIRED CUZ HIS JOB PERFORMANCE OR CUZ THEY DONT HAVE ENOGH TO PAY HIM?

DID YOU THINK SAME IS GOING TO HAPPEN WITH THE OTHER TECHS ALSO?

[Stormhammer]

prolly job performance - he was also a kinda shady bastard

[bigpanda16]

shady... that sounds like a bit much
he was out there for sure, but always willing to help out

[Sirk]

Bottom line, no one I know has had good experiences with anything involving Finishline and money. Now, the guys that work there, including Sae, seem like good people. They are all car guys, just the financial side sucks. So, if you need work done, go somewhere else, if you need parts, only buy it if they have it right there in front of you, other than that. Hanging out there is fun, cause kids do stupid shit.

[DRAG1JZ]

OK I PROOF MY POINT ALREADY!

THE ONLY ONES WHO TALK BAD ABOUT THE FABRICATOR IS THE ONE THAT DOES NOT EVEN SEE HIM ONCE AND DO NOT KNOW HIM!

BUT THE ONES THAT TALK BAD ABOUT THE SHOP ARE THE ONES WITH BAD EXPERIENCE WITH IT SO THIS EXPERIMENT CAME UP THE WAY I EXPECTED!

THANKS GUYS FOR ALL YOUR HELP!

PSS NOTHING AGAINST THAT SHOP! BUT THE ONLY THING I CAN SAY IS I FEEL A LOT BETTER NOW!
