Anyone know any good Performance shops around Toronto?

I'm looking to get some mods done to my car and was wondering if anyone knows of excellent performance auto shops around the Toronto areas? Thanks!

You'll probably get a better response if you specify in more detail what exactly you're looking to do. (i.e. bolt-ons, full engine rebuild, forced induction, suspension, audio)

I've leveraged multiple shops for different applications.

Good point. I plan on getting a shop to possibly do some headlight mods, painting front grill, dropping the car on eibachs, changing interior lighting of car. That sorta stuff. Thanks.

Aside from the headlights and grille, most shops should be able to do this fairly easily.

You may even want to check out the DIY on the forum if you feel like doing something yourself over the weekend.


For the headlights I would recommend taking advantage of one of the guys here on the forum (Igor or UCLA Bruin) who have experience with the G37 lights. Much less chance of having condensation issues down the road IMO.

For the grille, if you want to be sure it comes out nice I would take it to a local body shop. Once again this is a pretty simple job and just about anywhere should do a good job.


I will send you a PM with a shop I use outside the GTA for most of my audio and simpler things. It is about a 45-60 minute drive west depending where you are located.

Another suggestion - Simone Performance in Newmarket. Most the folks at the forum recommend them. They specialize in Nissan products.

thanks bro...you know it's interesting cause I was actually in Newmarket on Saturday getting a clear bra (ventureshield) put on my car and I actually stepped in and spoke with Simone Performance. I'm going to keep them as an option as well.

How much did you pay to get the clear bra done? Is it for the full bumper and top of the hood? I am of interest to know as I would like to get my car done as well. Thanks.
