    I called a few places to compare pricing, and not only were they the most competitive, but their customer service was leagues ahead of the rest. Poway Car Audio completely exceeded my expectations. Amir was super helpful over the phone, making the scheduling process easy and when I arrived, both he and Moe were incredibly welcoming and professional. They installed ambient lighting in my car the same day and the quality of their work was outstanding. Everything turned out better than I imagined and the whole experience was smooth from start to finish. If you're looking for a place that values your time, money and satisfaction, Poway Car Audio is the clear choice! Thank you guys!!

    Moe and Amir were fantastic to work with. I brought my vehicle in and they took a look at it, made initial recommendations, then offered up a few ideas for better sound. I ended getting a system I felt would be best for my listening preference, which included a deck that could play CDs (yes, I still listen to music on CDs!) and a kicker system for amazing bass. They were also generous with the labor as they found that some rodent had chewed up some of the wires that caused a short in the audio electrical system. Very happy with their work and it was completed quickly too! One thing on cost, you can get a system that is really affordable and sounds great, and you can upgrade to a system that may be more tuned into your preference, whatever your budget, they will make it work out so you are happy. Thank you Moe and Amir!

    I thought their work was very solid. I liked the first one so much, I ended up doing it for a second car of mine also.

    We had a few unforeseen issues with the setup and Amir was more than helpful in getting them fixed as soon as he could.

    *** Update: immediately after I posted this review, they posted a 1 star review of my business…read more They are not our customers. That is unethical. Shame. I reached out for an estimate on a wrap for a company vehicle. Matt gave me an estimate based on the information I had to go on. He then proceeded to call and email so much that I had to tell him to stop. After I later reached out to proceed and he received the digital files from my corporate office, he told me it would cost significantly more. When I told him I couldn't do it because it was too expensive, this was his reply: "When you can't find it cheap please don't reach out to use again we have waisted to much time for only a few bucks thanks Matt the owner of Mr wrap." As a business owner, I find this petty and unprofessional. Dodged a bullet.

On the…read moreCybertruck they did a black satin PPF, ceramic coating, and tint, and on the Model 3 they did ceramic coating and tint. Everything turned out amazing--super clean work and you can tell they're total perfectionists who only use top-notch materials. My cars look incredible! What I really appreciated was how easy they were to work with. Communication was great, they finished right on time, and I never once worried about leaving my cars (including a Cybertruck!) in their care. They're professional, trustworthy, and their pricing is totally fair for the quality of work you're getting. If you want your car to be treated like it's their own, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!

What also stood out is that they're using a legitimate professional system, not off-the-shelf products, and applying it properly.

    I brought my new Lexus GX 550 in for the Ultimate Armour package (just under $5k)…read more Scheduling and drop-off were both straightforward and easy, so no complaints there. Where things started to slip was on the pickup side. I was told the car was ready, but still ended up waiting about 30-40 minutes before actually getting it. At checkout, I was also surprised to see a tip screen with suggested amounts that felt pretty high given the service. I ended up leaving a small tip, but the experience itself didn't really match that level of expectation. I also would have appreciated a quick walkthrough of the work that was done--especially at that price point--but it was more of a quick handoff of the keys. I came back for the 10-day follow-up and made a point to ask about timing ahead of time. I was told it would take about an hour. I arrived early, but after an hour the car hadn't been touched yet, and there wasn't any update unless I asked. That part was frustrating. So, they ended up rushing my 10-day follow-up inspection. Gave the car a quick rinse and handed me the keys. What was the point of driving down from Carlsbad??? Over 3 hours wasted. For comparison, I had a great experience at their Kearny Mesa location previously, so I know what they're capable of. This location is stretched thin, which seemed to impact communication and overall service. I was not the only customer in the lobby feeling this way. Given the type of clientele they're working with and the pricing, I was expecting a bit more consistency and attention to detail. Their follow-up consisted of more sales pitches of coupons for services I already had done. Would have been nice to have the discounts PRIOR to the work! I planned on using the wash program and mentioned to Jasmine my poor service experience. Think there was follow-up? Nada. So, thumbs "kind of" up for Ceramic Pro but thumbs down for this location. Overall, I think the company itself does good work, and have used the Kearny Mesa location in the past several times with excellent success!! I would not choose this location again.

    Kearny Mesa

    Exceptional Service, Every Single Time…read more I've honestly lost count of how many vehicles I've had done at One of One -- and that alone should tell you everything. Just had my Model X fully PPF'd and tinted, and once again, the results are absolutely flawless. What truly sets them apart (beyond the incredible workmanship) is their customer service. They greet you by name the moment you walk in -- and that kind of personal touch is rare these days. Dawn, Alex, and Andrea are warm, professional, and incredibly detail-oriented, and the install team in the back is simply next level. You can tell everyone here genuinely takes pride in their craft. The PPF application is surgically clean -- edges are perfect, panels line up beautifully, and the finish looks factory (if not better). The tint completely transforms the car, both aesthetically and functionally. Heat rejection is noticeable immediately, and the overall look is sleek, aggressive, and refined. What really separates One of One from everyone else is that they don't just install film -- they deliver craftsmanship. They use top-tier materials, but more importantly, they take the time to do things right. No shortcuts. No rushed jobs. Just precision. Pricing is more than fair for the quality of work you're getting. In vehicle protection, the real value isn't just the product -- it's the people installing it. If you care about your car and want it done properly the first time, this is the place. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

I absolutely recommend One of One and will be using them for my vehicle detailing needs going forward.

We chose them because of their great reviews, competitive pricing, and their positive attitude when we first called them. They educated us on everything we needed to know related to tint, wrap, and ceramic coating and gave us some options that weren't even on our radar. No high pressure sales tactics, just knowledge presented in a confident manner letting us make the choices on what we wanted. We went with a vinyl wrap, tinted the windshield and front windows, then topped it off with a 3 year ceramic coating. These folks are expert wrap installers and clearly take pride in their work. They turned our truck back over to us looking like brand new. Cleaner than when we picked it up from Tesla a week ago, and they got it done quickly!! If you need detailing, a vehicle wrap, tint, ceramic coating or wheel restoration, this is the spot!!

Staff was friendly, knew their stuff, and actually took their time with it instead of rushing.

I'll be back for the PPF and ceramic, but figured I'd drop a review now since they already earned it. If you've got screen protectors you don't trust yourself to install, these are the guys to do it.

If you haven't tried using Yelp to acquire quotes from businesses such as dash cam and installation retailers, it's pretty convenient and many service type businesses will reach out to you. After sending an inquiry about purchasing and installation of a dash cam, one of the first businesses that reached out to me was DV Audio and Customs. Besides DV Audio, several other businesses contacted me and I immediately decided on DV Audio because of the professionalism and thoroughness of Dennis and Paola. They answered several questions I posed to them and although I probably could have shopped around for a better deal, I decided to have DV Audio take care of my dash cam need solely based on the professionalism and customer service, but besides those much clamored for qualities, I got even more once the job was completed. DV Audio is located in Escondido specifically within a small business park where other service type businesses are located. I don't remember if there were other tenants, but as soon as you turn into Wineridge, you'll turn right into the first driveway and you'll see the DV Audio signage. The exact address for DV Audio is 2080 Wineridge Suite D. The shop can be found by taking 15 North or 15 South exiting off of Valley Parkway and heading west. There are two parts of Escondido where car dealers are located, which is the east side and west side of Escondido. DV Audio is located close to the west side of car dealers. I received great customer service from Paola from start to finish for my dash cam project. Prior to setting up an appointment with DV Audio to have them install a dash cam, I stopped by their shop to ask them questions. The primary thing I wanted to ask them was whether they price match because at the time, Amazon Prime Days were going on. My intent was to buy a dash cam on Amazon and then have DV Audio install it. When I asked about price matching, Paola informed me that they do price match on a specific Red Tiger dash cam, but not on the higher end Red Tiger dash cam. She also informed me that it would be better if I purchased the dash cam from her because then it would be under warranty, which was great information to have. Another reason to have work done by DV Audio is that their business is military veteran friendly and they do military discounts for Army Veterans like me. If you pay cash for the work they do, there is a cash discount and who doesn't like savings. Besides all of these positives, they are also efficient and respect people's time. I dropped off my car at my appointment time of 9:30am and I was notified that they were done at 10:44am. When their technician was installing my dash cam, they found rust build up on the inside side wall of my dash, which I would have never found if not for their technician letting me know. This information was invaluable because I'm going to have the car dealer check it out. Lastly, Paolo provided more quality customer service after the work was completed by spending time with me going over the features of the dash cam. If you're ever in the market for a dash cam and installation of that dash cam, before you purchase, I highly recommend you contact or visit DV Audio and Customs to purchase the dash cam and have them do the installation. Customer service, expediency, and thoroughness from start to finish is why they should be the only shop you visit for dash cam service. I also noticed vintage cars in their shop, so if you own vintage cars, you might want to check what type of service they do for vintage cars.

    I requested a quote through Yelp (after seeing outstanding reviews). Paola responded to me right…read moreaway.....two other places didn't act so fast....not that I would have even considered them....DV Audio has a straight 5 star rating...you can look at the work they do on Yelp and it's all custom with incredible attention to detail. I had a front and rear dash cam installed (hardwire). The job was done right....works perfectly and love the care in running the wiring and setting everything up....I got to meet Dennis and Paola both and they are fantastic people. I highly recommended them and when you go you'll see right away that this is where you want to get your work done. Easy to find location. Great work and great pricing.
