shop faq
How do I book an install?
Text 831-586-0006 with your name, chassis, parts list, and a photo of the car. We’ll confirm timing and parts on hand. Booking is by text only.
Where are you located and what are your hours?
We are in Oceanside, California. Installs and local pickup are by appointment only—text 831-586-0006 to book. Standard shop availability is Monday to Friday, 9 am to 5 pm Pacific, with flexible slots by request. Same day pickup is possible when parts are in stock. Parking and entrance details will be sent in your confirmation text. We are closed on major holidays.
Do you offer local parts pickup?
Yes. We keep mainstream essentials in stock. Text the number above to confirm availability and we’ll set a pickup time. Same-day pickup is possible when items are on the shelf.
What services do you offer?
Maintenance, diagnostics, cosmetic installs (carbon lips, diffusers, skirts, spoilers, mirror caps, steering wheels, lighting), front-mount intakes, exhaust work, wheels and tires, and performance jobs like turbo or motor swaps and supporting hardware. We finish installs with a test drive when appropriate.
What is your Fitment Guarantee?
We guarantee OEM-plus fitment with professional installation. If it doesn’t fit as intended, we make it right. Many reputable shops recommend professional installs for consistent results, and some warranties expect it.
Can you install parts I didn’t buy from you?
Yes, we install customer-supplied parts. Text 831-586-0006 with your chassis, parts list, and photos so we can confirm fitment, hardware, and time. We stand behind our labor; product defects or missing hardware are covered by the original seller. Our Fitment Guarantee applies to CenCal-supplied parts when professionally installed.
How soon can I get on the schedule?
Text for the earliest openings. Same-day or next-day slots are sometimes available if parts are in stock and a bay is open.
How long will my appointment take?
Most cosmetic installs are same-day. Larger jobs like exhaust, front-mount intakes, turbo work, or multi-part kits may require more time. We’ll estimate after reviewing your parts and car.
Do you code headlights or electronics?
Some lighting and electronics require coding. We’ll advise per chassis and parts. It’s common that certain retrofit features need coding to fully enable them.
What should I bring to my appointment?
Bring the car clean, your parts and included hardware, and plan to arrive with at least a quarter tank of fuel for testing. If you’re running aftermarket ECU or TCU software, let us know ahead of time.
What if I need parts quickly?
Text to check what’s on the shelf. For items not in stock, we’ll give you current lead times. In this space, some products are built to order or batch-produced, which can extend timelines.
What payment methods do you accept?
Online checkout supports major cards and accelerated options. In-shop, we can invoice or process payment at drop-off or pickup.
behind the scenes
Step into the bay as we fit our shop G80 with a single midpipe and full valved catback to pair with its existing catless downpipes. Meet the techs, watch the workflow, see the final torque check—and hear the result. Clean fitment, dialed alignment, flame-checked.
