Default What shop to go to in central NJ

Just looking to see what shops are around central nj. I know about cartek but thats about it. I did check the sponsor list but that was last updated last year..


How about a good body shop. I have heavy clearcoat peeling on the hood, someone hit me years ago in the front and back (missing paint no real damage) and want to get it painted..

I'll never go to Cartek again and it's too long of a story to post.

What are you looking to have done (besides bodywork)?

Well didn't really want to go to cartek but it is right around the corner from me..

Frans96ss-------Yeah i seen your shop and it really sucks that you are right around the corner from my parents old house right by the airport,swear it was less then 3 miles.. They now live in dover so your still a good option.. Im actually going to del tomorrow night(not taking my car) and might have to see if i can drop by, that is if you guys work sat..

Firehawk------ Do you know if tune time performance was the same as TTPerformance that was located in Clifton and closed a long time ago? There was a Matt there too, but not sure if its the same guy?

We are not open on sat. We are usually at the track. We are open M-F 9-6. Let me know if you want to stop by and check it out.

I have heard nothing but good things from my friends who went to Tune Time, and know for a fact RPM does great work as well.

Ill add another nod to Tune Time. Tune Time Performance and TTP were never affiliated. Matt from TTP is at ECS now.

The owner of Tune Time is also named Matt. I brought my car to him after it was tuned at TTP. I gained 25 hp and 40 ft lbs at the wheels. I drive almost 200 miles round trip to have Tune Time work on my car.
