Request: Mod friendly shops in DMV area
Hi All,
Moving to the DMV area this summer, and I'm looking for some recommendations on shops in the area for inspection and general part installation/maintenance. If anyone knows some places or can point me to people who do, I'd really appreciate a DM. Thanks!

AKTIV AUTOMOTIVE IN GAITHERSBURG. KEVIN LUCAS IS THE OWNER/HEAD MECHANIC. THEY DO ALMOST ANYTHING; IF NOT THEY HAVE MANY RELATIONSHIPS WITH LOCAL SHOPS WHO PICK UP THE LOOSE ENDS TO MAKE SURE ITS DONE RIGHT. THEY ALWAYS HAVE MY BACK AND VERY FAIR ON PRICING AND GET THE JOB DONE RIGHT AND FAST.

That should be a DYI 15 minute job, there are videos on youtube that will walk you through it. Very simple. Otherwise AKTIV is probably closest, Kevin is a good dude like others have mentioned.
