not slamming them or anything. just wanted to inform the public that they aren't licensed mechanics. if you go there, i have been warned to ONLY let Chris and Blaine touch your car. i think they are the owners

Last time I was out there I saw a licence hanging on the wall. I think it had Chris's name on it. They have done better work on my car and taken better care of it than some of the "licensed places". Don't forget your front lip Ronnie, and my experience around the Blitz gauges ...,

hey Dave, prob a business license.

yup, didn't forget. i don't have proof, but i think during the time my car was at Campus Honda, my carbon lip splitter was damaged. most likely by the lifts.

i unfortunately don't have proof, but i know for certain the damage was not there when i handed my car over! the angle of impact could not have been caused by street driving.

sooo i'm kinda not certain if i want to go back there.

Chris and Blane are great guys, they operated out of the shop I work at while their new place was being built.
They are the owners and as far as I know, the only people that work there. They have a guy that does their welding/some fab work for them but as for actually working on cars, it's just them.
Neither of them have their technician ticket. They have certifications in certain things but they are not licensed techs.
Like I said, great guys and they love to help you out with getting the right parts and pieces.
If I didn't work on my own car, I wouldn't hesitate to leave it with them.
The only downfall I've seen when working with/around them is there were a lot of guys/customers that hang around and b.s. It's good to be friendly but I guess it's just something that would annoy me if I was trying to work on customers cars, maybe it doesn't bother them.
