Default Where to get SFCs installed? (weld-in)

Like the title says, where's a good place to get weld-in SFCs installed around Anaheim for a reasonable price? I don't mind driving a bit as long as its done right and I don't get ripped off

I contacted their shop but they want $200 to weld them in??

I could've sworn I heard most SFC installs (weld-in) costing ~$100, or was I mistaken?

Call Rob @SPmotorsports (818)342-5693


I'm sure he'd do them for around $100 any day... You could probably hang out while there being done and drive home within the hour....

Give em a call there pricing and work is second to none...

sorry man we have to eat, and pay for bills......... we do a extremely clean job, we take our time to prep the surface for welding (cleaning of powdercoat in spots that need welding), to unsure clean well penetrated welds...... if you want it done cheap then take it to your local midas or something.
