What kind of work are you looking to get done?

One of the other techs at my work (South Bay BMW) has a brother that owns an independent BMW shop in Torrance. I believe it's called South Bay Independent. They're on Vermont, close to the 190th street intersection.

The owner used to work for BMW NA back in the day and i'd say that he's probably experienced with working on modded cars since he has a fully built alpine white 2.5L E30 M3. Hope this helps.

I know a very good mechanic in Gardena, but he's not BMW specific. He put my Noble together, and is currently doing a turbo Elise. :D

What exactly are you looking to get done?

Callas Rennsport.
Ask for Tony, I've known him for 20 years.
He is in Torrance and runs a great shop.

Agreed....Hoa Nguyen owns South Bay Indepedent BMW and his brother Hiep is a Master mechanic at the dealership South Bay BMW dealership.

I go to Hoa in Gardena and he knows his stuff inside and out.

Heh...Hiep is my team leader at South Bay BMW. Before I went flate rate, I was his apprentice for a few months. He is definitely a wealth of knowledge and his brother is right up there too. If I didn't do all of my own work, i'd definitely trust my car to Hoa at South Bay Independent.
