I recommend Garvin & Lidster to everyone. There knowledgeable mechanics make it pleasant to get any repair work done. I came in with a K&N cold air intake system in a box and they happily installed it for me without any issues. Their work is exceptional and I would go back again.
Thank you very much for the super kind words, we are very appreciative to have customers such as yourself who are not only faithful to our business but also believe in us enough to recommend us to their friends and family. Thank you for being a great customer and once again thank you for taking the time to let us and everyone else know how we are doing. We greatly appreciate your business.
