Gonna shill for these guys. They do good mechanic work for a good price.

They have a shop, but also hang out outside of the O'Reily auto parts on Fondren and W. Belfort. 832.881.9452. is their number. You buy your own parts and they charge for the labor.

I needed my spark plugs replaced for maintenance at 60k miles, I bought the plugs online and they charged me $100 for the labor. All in I spent ~$160. The dealer quoted me $520 for the plugs and labor.

I've used them for 6 years now and they have replaced my brakes, O2 sensor, shocks, and fog lamps (the car needed to be lifted).
