Best Performance Shops?

hey im new to the 6, and im thinking about fixing up my Porsche GT3 Cup car, i've been trying to find a good performance shop for parts, tuning etc.
i came across EDITED DUE TO SPAM for a clear bra, im getting my car clear bra'd as i type this. they charged me $950 for it. and they also asked me if i needed any headers, body kits, wings, rims & tires etc for my Porsche, they gave me good price's on things but i wasn't sure if i should go for them. i was thinking about buying headers for my 996, they told me $950 for "fast forward headers" which is from the east coast... i was wondering if there overpriced? or if there shop is a good bargain. let me know if anyone has been there.. its located in santa clara. they're friendly people.

Sharkwerks is not too far away from Milpitas. They're located at Fremont. I have not been there b4 too but i've seen and heard all the positive comments about them.

Aw shucks- thanks guys

Exparcee it sounds like you are happy where you are and that's always important. If you do want to look us up we're in Fremont (very close to Milpitas). I haven't heard of D&A so I did a google search and came up with some EVO and Civic forums posts but I will have to check them out too.

Yes, Sharkwerks ONLY. Reputation and service is 2nd to none. That's all they do. Don't bother with shops that barely touch Porsches. btw exparcee, it does sound a bit strange for you to list their address when you were just asking for advice.

Nothing against the thread starter but sounds like an advertisement for business.

wow, looks like these guys are pretty desperate for business - https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...ight=clear+bra
Perhaps, you should look into becoming a sponsor on here...word of advice though. Make it less obvious that you are trying to promote the biz
