Default Anyone know a good import shop near the Burlington, MA area?

I hang usually in the A6 C5 Forum but thought this forum made more sense for my plea for help.

I will be installing a sport suspension, sway bar, and adding exhaust tips on my 2000 A6 2.7T. I will be purchasing Magnaflow tips from performance-curve.com and may be buying a suspension upgrade from Tire Rack.

I'm not quite sure about which suspension yet but I know I want the lowered look and better street handling and cornering. I'm not interested in Autocross so an extreme kit is not for me. Any suggestions? experience?

My other upgrades will include (finally) tinted windows, HID, and maybe S6 style mirrors.

Your suggestions will be much appreciated!

Default i live in burlington, closest reputable would be autobahn in lexington or little foreign car

in waltham, and tint-king in billerica for your tint needs! (ask for the possible if any...online audi enthusiast 'group buy' discount)

Default You should definitely consider using Billy @ Anchor Auto Body in Woburn...

...he can install suspension, exhaust, sways, etc, and after-hours (nights and weekends). His rates will be much less than and indy shop. Let me know if you want his contact info.

The only thing he cannot do is an alignment, but you'll probably want to wait a week for the new suspension to settle, then have the alignment done somewhere else.

As far as window tint, definitely consider Tint King in Billerica (just outside Burlington). They do great work.

Default Great, thanks to all. I'll definitely consider him once I have my hardware

I've heard Tint King also does a great job so I'll try him as well. I've seen his 'hidden' shop in Billerica which is not far from me.

Hopefully I can get some of this stuff done before the next GTG, if not, hopefully there will be another event coming up. I also plan to detail my car, switch to summer wheels/tires and maybe install a new spoiler/side mirrors. I know... I'm being very optimistic with the schedule, but I've got a high Audifever.
