Good shops on the east coast

I was wondering what automotive aftermarket shops are out there on the east coast? I want to get the consumers opinions of certain shops that are out there on the east coast. Basically I'm trying to get an idea of which shop is the most popular among the import community in terms of service, product availability, etc.

1. What are you experiences with these shops?
2. Do they treat their customers well?
3. Are they professional?
4. Do they have a good reputation from their customers and the community in general?
5. Are they a well respected shop?
6. How is the appearance of their shop: Is it neat and organized?
Doesn't have to be a 240sx specific shop.
Any other input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch.
Daniel

omg....LA Xtreme Customs????
you've got to be f*cking kidding me...
after looking at their "drift car" at world of wheels, i KNOW they don't know what they're doing.
they might do good work elsewhere, but that car was a frist bad impression on me.

think battleground is in atlanta, as well as jarco (jarco is north, iirc)

www.jarcoinc.com
don't have a url for battleground.

since you're looking an east coast, i'd look in florida (enjuku) or up north (heavythrottle) as well. not too sure about battleground's reputation, but as best i can tell, jarco sells mostly used parts since they visit japan, grab some good stuff, and ship it back.
