    Found these guys on Instagram. They did some work on my truck. Very happy with the results. Professional shop with an extensive knowledge of all vehicle types and complete pleasure to do business with. I would highly recommend this shop for any kind of work for your special vehicle.

    I don't know where to start. These guys are absolutely outstanding. I read some reviews on here, when I was thinking about lifting my wrangler, and they all seem on point. As a woman, I was intimidated going to a shop to get my truck lifted and worried I'd feel 1) uncomfortable and 2) taken advantage of. Well, that was as far from what I got when I walked into The Custom Shop for the first time. Brett was behind the counter and introduced himself. He was super positive, sounded eager, but also extremely laid back and very patient. I went in there knowing all the parts I wanted ahead of time, and he helped me build my jeep and found the best prices and we ordered the stuff together. He never tried to sway me one way or another, or tried to do stuff that would be easier and more profitable for him. He let me have free rage and was up to install anything I ordered. The prices for labor are the best. The techs are just as awesome as Brett, as is his co-owner. They let me bring my dog, Baron, and let me wrench on my Jeep, so I could have a good idea of what was going on, in case something broke while on the trails. It's the kind of place you will go back to for continued work. You leave feeling great and without feeling like you were taken advantage of. Their laid back atmosphere by no means implies they are slow. While they ARE methodical, my lift, wheels, tires, bumpers, and paint/powder coating was done super quickly. When the lift arrived, it was on the same day. I can't say enough about this place. You guys are awesome. I can't wait for stage two, when we work on the performance on the jeep (His name is Wiley).

    This shop knows how to take precaution by covering up of the car that you as a customer don't want to be touched while working on it.

    I've been a customer for over 4 years now. I've brought about 3 cars to them from JDM to EURO. They recently did a custom interior trim and a whole sound system upgrade on my 2018 BMW M3. A lot of knowledge, experience and positive attitudes are all I ever know when I walk in the doors. I recommend them for all your car needs whether it's audio, stance, or performance.

    BEST IN NEW YORK! A fantastic shop that should be the number one choice for any car enthusiast. Amazing management from Brett who worked with my tight schedule to make it as convenient as possible, and also walked me through my options to make my car even better that I had planned. Work was done quickly and everyone in the shop was so friendly, such a nice little neighborhood spot to enjoy passing time and have a chat amongst other gear heads. They have an endless number of different services that they offer and for very aggresive and honest prices too. I trust them 100% with my most prized posession. After going here there will be no other shops I look for in the future. Also a huge thanks to Anand who has my charger's exhaust sounding even better than imagined. Will be bringing all of my future business and friends here as well. Don't look anywhere else!

    What a great experience here. These guys are the real deal. I worked closely with Shawn on getting 35 inch tires and a 2.5" lift for my new Jeep Wrangler. Shopping under his advice was zero pressure, educational and just very chill. You can tell it's a great group of guys that work here and love what they do. Their operation is trustworthy and skilled. If your getting custom work done and you are in the tri-state area, these are the guys you want to go to. Brett, the owner, maintains a very "zen-like" personality and shop. He's got great ideas in customizing my Jeep, and I can't wait to build enough money and do more jobs in the car. If you're considering getting custom work done to a car of yours, I definitely recommend you stop by the custom shop and speak with this crew. Thank you Shawn, Brett, and the rest of the guys who worked on the car.

    About time I give these guys a review. They've worked on my Audi S4 since the get-go. It started with a simple tint job and chrome delete about 2 years ago. I was so happy with the workmanship of the tint job I came to them again almost a year later and they remembered me. Now that's customer service! We eventually hit it off and I decided to use them for a full wrap job. They did a tremendous job from consultation to sending me updates throughout the week and to the final end product. Till this day it has held up really well and I get so much recognition at shows and even random strangers on the streets will run up to me and give me the thumbs up. It didn't stop there. I see how popular air suspensions were becoming and my hands got itchy but I was unfamiliar with the whole air system. I was afraid to jump at it but after multiple consultations with The Custom Shop, I handled them my keys yet again in full trust. They did an amazing job with the install and they over delivered with a showpiece of a custom trunk setup. I got to keep my spare tire and I didn't loose much of my trunk space. Now thats the best of both worlds. My car looks sick and it fits a stroller for my baby. Now I've run out of things to do to my car but I still come to the shop to kick it with the guys at the shop. They never shun me away and always welcome me like family. These guys work on everything. They will never turn you down based on the car you drive. They are lovers of all car. I've seen top of the line European cars, heavily modded Japanese imports, Mom vans, Vintage, Rusty old beat up and broken down Jeeps to crazy out of this world Wrangler JKs. So never feel intimidated when you drive by custom shop. Go in and you'll be greeted with a smile that I guarantee.

    The Custom Shop working their magic.

    I've owned my 2014 Jeep JK for a year and half and got the bug to lift it. It seemed like there were no reputable 4 x 4 shops in NYC. I searched all the forums and looked all over the Internet and kept coming up empty. I finally e-mailed The Custom Shop and got a reply from Will minutes later. Will took the time to walk me through the lift process and help me sort out my options. I visited the shop and everyone was friendly and helpful and seemed to care that I make the right decision choosing the parts I was installing. Working in the automotive field I've come to expect the worst, but these guys clearly put customer service above all else. The shop installed a 2" AEV lift along with wheels and bigger tires. The work was great and every promise made was fulfilled. I would definitely recommend you check the shop out and would not hesitate to bring my car back for future mods.

    See all

    I couldn't be happier with the work Patrick and the team at PNA did on my 2025 Toyota RAV4…read more From the beginning, Patrick took the time to explain every step of the installation and made recommendations based on sound quality instead of simply trying to sell me more equipment. His attention to detail and professionalism were outstanding. My system includes an ARC Audio X2 800.8 DSP/amplifier, JL Audio speakers, Infinity speakers, Beyma A-pillar tweeters, a Rockford Fosgate subwoofer, and sound deadening. The installation is exceptionally clean, everything works perfectly, and it looks completely factory. The biggest difference came from Patrick's DSP tuning. He transformed the system into something I honestly didn't think was possible in a RAV4. The soundstage is wide, the vocals are perfectly centered, the bass is tight and controlled, and every instrument is incredibly clear. The music is balanced, detailed, and enjoyable at any volume. Before the tuning I liked my system, but after Patrick finished, it became a completely different experience. I would rate the sound quality a 9.5 out of 10, and it now has the refined, premium sound I was hoping to achieve. If you're looking for a shop that truly understands car audio, DSP tuning, and high-quality installations, I highly recommend PNA. Patrick's knowledge, craftsmanship, and passion for great sound really show in his work. Thank you for exceeding my expectations!

The first time was due to my parked car being vandalized. The last two occasions were a result of my catalytic converter being stolen. After the 1st cat theft, however, I brought my car to a different nearby insurance company repair shop, which ended up not a good experience. During the over 7 months it took to get the cat, I had to repeatedly follow up observing that shop wasn't actively checking on the part's availability with their supplier. So on the 2nd cat theft, I instead brought it to Gotham. As with my first Gotham experience, they were on top of things, quickly repairing the vehicle. Less than three months later when victim of a 3rd cat theft, Gotham rapidly inspected the car and did their best to keep the repair bill down. Nevertheless, the estimate ended up triggering the insurance company totaling my car. Sensitive to my frustrating situation, the team at Gotham was professional, courteous, attentive and accommodating - like every experience with them. Gotham thankfully made a difficult situation easier to get through. Should my next car require similar big repair work, I'd consider using them again.
