Replacing the serpentine belt, front tie rod, coolant flush, and basic overall inspection of the vehicle before I take a trip out to Illinois next month.

Just got my car back from Metrix in Santee and couldn't be happier. Some lady backed into my car and mangled the passenger door and rear quarter panel. I had Metrix fix some dents damage and respray my bumper and passenger front fender at the same time.

So basically my front bumper and entire passenger side was resprayed, and you can't even tell. Jose matched the paint perfectly.

I asked Jose (The owner, it's only him and his brother that work there) tons of questions and he answered all of them and put my fears at ease. There was no overspray or drips that I could find. When he was prepping the car, he founnd areas where the clearcoat was coming off (apparently my car had been previously resprayed) and he took the time to prep all those areas so the same thing wouldn't happen again.

All in all I highly recommend Metrix and give Jose and his brother
