Default DC / MD Performance shops...

Anybody know of any performance shops in the DC / MD area. Speed Unlimited is the only one I know if and is really close to me, but their prices are hella high, and they rarely have anything that I need. Need an example, they want $50 for a white Honda H emblem. That's crazy. I just basicly tired of having to pay all this money for shipping prices from ordering stuff and want to find something local that I can drive too. Any help...

yeah, I figured that. It kinda sucks when you want to buy something like a hood and have to pay an extra $100+ just to ship.

I also have lost a couple thousand at shop and shiesters so to online shops it is, but how do you know who is legit on the WWW? trial and error, but its wise to use others errors when deciding, they have a whole shop list going on I cant find the thread though, where we all voted on shops and who you should never go to.
Like asylum motorsports, never go there!!!!

jdmhondaparts is ok
inline four is supposedly good
manchester honda is awesome

Oh, arright, I'll try to check out that inline pro place. I am always ordering alot of stuff online. But is sucks paying shipping prices, and it sucks when you buy something online, it take like 3 weeks to get to your house, and then it's for a totally different car or something. Then you have to find people and hope they'll refund or exchange.

Shouldn't say bad stuff about people you don't have first hand experience with

There prices are hefty and I don't think anyone will argure but Thise Guys know their stuff and they win a lot of races at the Track PLUS they probably have done more swaps in the Metro Area than most others.

Another Good place in the Area More on my side of the woods is J and D Motosports they are also in Capitol heights.
agreed. inlinepro isn't the cheapest, but their work is top quality. i wouldn't go anywhere else. they have done twice as many motor swaps than any other shop in a 200 mile radius. they have done 5 times as many turbo kits than anyone in a 200 mile radius. most, not all, but most of the area's fastest cars come from there. both street and strip. na and turbo.

other honorable mentions:
J&D motorsports
CDE motorsports

Yea, word of mouth is always a bad thing, rumors spread like wildfire. I would say get the facts then make concrete accusations.

well the one guy whose car I did see in person said he paid too much. $6000 for a motorswap or somehting liek that.

And i saw the ugly little plaque they bolted to his poor old chassis. same location where the JDM chassis plaques go, they had their own one fabricated advertising inline pro all over it

please stop using second hand info. Inline is about the best shop in the area for turbo, and motor swaps. I would still be a regular customer of theirs if I didn't have my own business.
