    Default Shops in the twin cities

    Alright how bout we make a list with all the legit shops in the metro area (or all of MN). That way we dont have people making new threads everyday asking what the best tire shop is? or the best powdercoating shop? or the best sandblasting place? You get the point. *AKA- this is a compilation thread of all those other threads where people are asking for shops/places to do certain services.*

    It can then be a reference for people. We can add onto it and i'll add it to the original post. Maybe it'll get stickied too.

    May seem obvious, but SCI and Further should be on there.

    Kaplan Bros [14th & Lake St] is a great place to get bulk cloth gloves and other doomed clothing, for cheap.

    And I know that Doug & Jack (the parts guys) from Burnsville VW are on the boards - IIRC, they offer a 10% discount to Eurowerks members, so that might be worth adding to the list.

    TIntmasters in Burnsville does tinting, ICE and just about anything short of major performance mods to cars. Best tint I have ever seen, 7 cars of mine and counting.

    Full custom exhaust work on the cheap. As of a year or two ago Chad (the owner) didn't have a mandrel bender in-shop, but could order any bends he needed.

    Tuans Auto Repair in Saint Paul does great work for your winter beaters or on JDM cars. I took my old Nissan as well as my wife's old infiniti G20 there and their work was always 20-30% cheaper then other places I looked at. That and they did a good job too.
