Angry No performaqnce shops!!!!!

I'm in Pittsburgh and there are absolutely NO shops around here, unless I'm just completely missing them all when I look for em. There is no where to buy from except mail order, and no place to have installs done. I usually do all removal/installs myself but there are a few things I can't do, either because of not having the right tools, or just not trusting my own ability. Does anyone know of any shops in the western pa area that aren't mustang specialty garages?!?!

If you can find a shop that caters to imports in general they can most likely buy whatever parts you find online so long as they do business with the manufacturers. If you know a shop that buys Eibachs, they can get you your springs for example. Just because they don't cater to the Lancer or Mitsubishi in general doesn't mean they can't help at all.

If they don't normally work on Lancers they may not be willing to do the labor, but more likely than not they will do it for you if they want the business. Anyway, it's a way to get a local source for parts if not labor.

I got a shop in West Chester that specializes in custom installs and will do whatever you want pretty much.
