    I went in to do a couple of upgrades to the Supra. Upgraded to multi-slotted front rotors, brake pads, and a steering wheel upgrade. Rotors and brake pads were straight forward. The upgraded steering wheel, Rexpeed flat bottom steering wheel. This was a little bit more complex, I asked if he could move all the internals from the stock steering wheel to the Rexpeed steering wheel, Dennis said no problem. Dropped off the car at RNZ when they opened, Dennis was at the front desk, bright and early. I let him know that he can have the car all day. About 2:30 - 3pm pm, your car is ready. I love these guys! Thank you! You guys did an amazing job! On to Toyotafest 2024 in Long Beach.

    Brand new tires alignment was not done right.

    I went to get a alignment. I had bought new tires. Now they are all bald. I paid $160 for the service. Not worth it! I got a pigeon toe alignment on both my front and back tires. These tires cost me $600 and not they are bald due to inexperienced technicians.

    For all the stuff I'm too lazy, or don't have the tools to do, RNZ is the one of the very few places I trust to work on my cars, from my 72 510, to my latest project 2005 4runner - the crew has always been professional and reliable. They are enthusiast just as much as mechanics and never hesitate to recommend them for any service. Thanks to the team for taking care of my cars! Most recent service: 4runner Front Suspension install (Shocks, control arms, control arm bushings, and alignment) Past services: - 2001 Tacoma AC repair, brakes, ball joints, transmission service - 1972 510 Alignment

    I have gone to RNZ Conceptz twice now. Both times the customer service has been great. Dennis has done some great and quality work on my car. I have a 2020 Camry and bought Coilovers and was looking for a reasonable place to get it done. Talking to Dennis made it a easy decision to bring my car here. I have referred a few friends to RNZ and they have had similar experiences. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a quality mechanic.

    Brought my Lexus in for regular maintenance and what can I say.. the service was 10/10. Dennis took care of me and Brandon did a good job highlighting what work was done. Thank you for the excellent service you provided and I will be recommending RNZ to all my friends and family!

    I've taken all my cars to Rnz concepts for the past 5 years. I know nothing about cars just minor basics. Dennis and Al have always taken care of me regarding any repairs needed to be done. We've all been at that place where money is tight and the guys have always taken that into account whenever I had car issues. They would always let me know what should be fixed first when money was an issue. Mazda protege, Nissan 350z, friends and family's other vehicles were recommended by me to be sent here. It's the kind of shop that when you are given the bill you don't look twice at it because you know you're in good hands. I recently had the opportunity to pick up a 1994 Toyota Supra from friend. RNZ had worked on this Supra for my friend with flushing the engine and replacing the clutch. The work that was done was great, they got the Supra back up and about. The AC wasn't working and I conferred with Al, they ended up replacing the entire AC unit for $$ The last thing I wanted to do was install a sound system, I had everything I wanted ordered from pioneer with Al's Input and was researching different stereo shops for the install. Price quotes were around $600. Dennis and Al offered to install everything for me for the same price. Dennis told me he only does stereo installs for his homies. I figured if I'm going to spend $600, I may as well pay it to people I know instead of strangers. Dropped off my car and went home to hang out. I got a call from Dennis saying that it was more labor intensive than expected and that the bill would be around $1000 but he'll hook it up for $880. A bit over my budget but cool. I picked up the car in the evening and they bumped the sounds, showed me the deck portion of the car. It looked like someone hacked the center console with a file. You can see pics below. Dennis told me he couldn't fit deck so he had to file the sides. He went into more detail and Al even said that La Jolla car audio would have charged over $1500 because they would have to do a custom wood bezel etc etc. I should be happy with the work he did. I went home with a weird feeling in my stomach. The next day in daylight I took a closer look at everything and the car was a mess. Greasy oil foot prints on the inside of my car, window seal loose, the Supra looked like someone just half assed the job without caring. I took my car to a stereo place and they straight up told me that Dennis installed incorrectly. I went back after talking to Eugene Abad Who works with them and was told the same thing by Dennis. His excuse this time was stereo shops quote you the low price to get you in and that's how they would get you for $1500. No help, no refund, he just filed the face a bit more, cleaned the interior, but as you can see it still looks awful. It took a while but I've been hunting for the replacement piece to my dash that RNZ butchered. I finally found the OEM part. I did my research and took it to a place called "Audio Sound" in Kearny Mesa. I informed them of all the the work Dennis said he did, and told the owner Amir I wanted to check and redo everything if needed . 2 days later everything looks great as you can see below. The deck fits perfectly without having to cut the center console at all Amir breaks it down to me that Dennis did a horrible job with everything. He didn't even secure my amp below my seat. Work was garbage period. The bill for the work to be redone was $456.60. They took the time to walk me through everything. Now armed with complete knowledge, I reached out to Dennis as you can see from the pics included. All I wanted was for them to reimburse me the $456.60 and money for the center piece. As you can see from the reply, they were caught. There's no owner ship or anything. They ripped me off over $880. Shouldn't that tell you something? For an amount that small what else have they done? I have a feeling these guys used my Supra to practice on, Who knows right? If $880 is worth severing a long good relationship, you have to ask yourself what else is possible? If you're a current customer or prospective customer I hope you read this and think twice about trusting Dennis and RNZ with your car. I blindly trusted them, didn't do my research and paid for it. It's people like this that ruin it for everyone else and makes the world a shittier place. Silver lining, is that I get to share my experience with you.

    No more clunking sound
    nam v.

    After installing coil overs on my 2018 civic . The car right off the bat made a weird clunking sound that I couldn't figure out . So I took it to Dennis at Rnz to check it out and have the car aligned. It took him all day to figure it out but he was able to fix it ! He also aligned the car and adjusted my suspension. Car now handles and ride super smooth with no clunking sound . Great customer service !Dennis even did a follow up call on me the next day to make sure I was happy with the car . Thanks again RNZ. Glad I took it to you guys to fix my car !

    Jerry S.

    Came in to get my car aligned after putting new wheels on and adjusting my front camber. Albert & Dennis always take care of me and all of there customers for that matter shout out to Oscar for dialing in the car on the alignment machine . She drives perfectly

    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 brought in my Honda Ridgeline for an issue with my AC. Jason worked with me at the front-desk and went above and beyond to understand my issue and the troubleshooting I had already done. He explained to me CONCISELY what the feasible issue may be, and how they were going to approach a diagnosis. Jason was extremely knowledgeable, and followed up promptly to discuss the fix. Pedro was also exceptional. He found the issue (rodent-chewed wires) and repaired it perfectly. When I picked up my car, he was as excited as I was to have helped me. Before Miramar Auto, I took my truck to the Honda dealer, and they charged twice as much for a diagnosis, only to tell me that I would need a new compressor (incorrect diagnosis) and that it would cost twice as much as I ended up paying out the door at Miramar auto. I couldn't believe how easy Miramar Auto made it. To say that Jason, Pedro, and Miramar Auto are honest, fair, and made me feel taken care of... would be an understatement. They have rightfully earned another lifelong customer. Thank you Miramar Auto!

I booked online, noted my concerns in the text box, and dropped my car off the next day. After checking in at the office, I walked Joey through my concerns and opted for a Post-Purchase Inspection. Joey sent over the findings quickly and gave me his honest, upfront opinion on what needed immediate attention before my trip versus what maintenance could wait until I reached my destination. He also provided a clear copy of the inspection quotes so there were no surprises. In the end, they completed the full inspection, replaced the car battery, and fixed a coolant leak for around $550+ (including taxes). I definitely recommend this shop! Pro-tip: Try to get there early in the day, as on-site parking and road traffic can get a bit hectic later on.

I went to a few other shops and got the usual runaround -- everyone wanted to sell me a bunch of stuff and nobody could give me a straight answer. Then I went to Emad. Within minutes he knew exactly what the Bronco needed. He was honest right from the start and literally told me, "I don't want to charge you too much -- you only need a little tweak here and a little tweak there." That alone told me I was in the right place. He ended up adding a subwoofer in a spot I never would have thought would work, but it was exactly what the truck needed.
