SRIC, tell me about SMA

Hey, I've never been to SMA motorsports for anything (parts/service) but I've heard some good things from a friend so am considering it. Anyone have any experiences/opinions that they want to share?

well, to be honest with you, I've only heard bad things. Then again, this is a bias opinion, but when my friend ordered some h&r springs for his golf, they gave him springs for a civic, then he ordered another part thinking it was a one time mistake. Not only did the part take a long time for them to finally get a hold of, but it was damaged somehow in their backroom. This is all from one person though, I have no clue about their work and services. Personally, you should go to db! Or motorsport dynamic...

Nothing positive from me either. I was not all impressed with their quality of work or business ethic. As for Motorsport, they're cool guys, but they don't know much about Subarus. Besides that they are usually booked 4-6 weeks out.
