Brought my Z4 in to get some maintenance/repair work done. The price quote they gave me for the parts and labor were cheap compared to other places. Service was quick and I got my car back the same day. They seem to specialize in Mercedes but I saw that they were also working on BMWs and Audis. I recommend this place and will definitely come back again.

This is THE shop to help with all your AMG needs. I've been bringing my car here several times for installation, diagnosis, and regular maintenance. The experience is absolutely great.
Aaron and Wilson are extremely experienced, friendly, and professional. I got an issue with the valve control system of my exhaust, and they tirelessly helped me with a perfect solution. They also kept the entire process transparent and communicated effectively.
Unlike some other shops I visited where they only prioritize their exotic cars, Stance Lab treated me and my car with equal respect.

I met Wilson and Aaron through Turo. We were able to rent their BMW Z4 for the weekend to go to Napa. Overall they were professional and accommodating. They have a beautiful shop and Aaron gave me a tour of their operation. You can tell these guys are passionate about what they do! Thank you both for an awesome experience!

I had a few parts wrapped under 1 year ago and all the parts started to bubble up within the first month. I understand that I should have took it back as soon as I seen it, I’m to busy with work to waste time to go get it redone when it should have gotten done right the first time! I went to the shop to see if I can get it fixed, I guess they don’t stand behind their work. I asked if she can take it off and not put it back on, her reply was “not for free!” I never asked for any free work to get done on my car. All I was looking for was decent customer service! I never went there thinking

These guys are worth the trip for anyone within the area with a Mercedes - whether you want to modify it or not. Most mechanics are ex-MB dealerships but the rates are far more reasonable.
I own and have owned a lot of toys requiring different specialties in maintenance and these guys are hands down the best you could work with.
Wilson is a great resource as you go about scheduling maintenance or upgrades and is extremely responsive + knowledgeable. He's worked with me on figuring out which upgrades / replacements to do and I value his opinion greatly. It's almost like having a dedicated

I had a really great experience and top-notch work on my AMG from Wilson and the team at Stance Lab. I'd highly recommend them for any maintenance or upgrades to your vehicle! They're honest, professional, and communicative.
It's tough to find a trustworthy shop for your sometimes finnicky performance-oriented vehicles, but rest-assured you're in good hands at Stance.

I'm not sure why it took this long to write a review.... these guys are nothing short of amazing.
I wanted to get a wrap for my hatchback. I was apprehensive because my cars are nothing like the ones they typically work on. They did an amazing job.
Years later, they've done everything from a simple service A/B to a tune, downpipe, coilovers, and exhaust. They took care of my wagon the same way they do their mclarens and lamborghinis.
Being mechanically sound is great, but what's more impressive is the way they treat their clients. Without speaking in hyperbole, I've never

Looking to have suspension work done on my 1999 C43 AMG, I was referred to Stance Lab by one of their long-time customers. I had a ton of questions, Wilson promptly responded to each of my many emails. He was more than familiar with my oddball car and reccomended a suspension package. I was able to book an appointment quickly, and got the car in. Aaron did the work on the car, he was super efficient and obviously a very skilled technician. When the car was done, they both answered even more questions. The car looks and drives great, Wilson nailed it with his reccomendation.

Amazing group of guys that work here. Very efficient and knows there stuff. I brought my Lamborghini In to fix and they knew exactly what was wrong with it and told me the pricing and what needed to be done.
I trust these guys with my car over dealership plus they have competitive pricing and will work with your every needs.
They also do after market builds and vinyl wrapping including detailing etc.
It's really a shop that does everything and more
Definitely recommend this shop if your ever in need of minor problems to big modifications to your exotics to high end vehicles

I was referred by Cory from Weistec to do the ECU tune on my E550. Wilson and his team were very professional, personable and very knowledgeable. I want to thank them all for their awesome service. They also lowered my car and it looks and rides great. I will definitely refer them to my friends and will be back for any service I need!

I've been coming to Stance Lab for over 5+ years now. We've brought our various Mercedes (S, E, and ML) and my 5 series BMW to this shop. Wilson has performed maintenance and solved many issues such as (but not limited to):
1. Standard A/B Mercedes and BMW mileage maintenance (much cheaper than the dealer)
2. Oil leaks issues/replacement - My BMW was smoking on the freeway and he was able to find a dime sized hole in one of the pipes.
3. Brake issues
4. Rear and front defogger issues
5. Collision repair
6. Headlight electrical repair
7. Air conditioning leak repair
8. steering wheel repair

The team at Stancelab is very professional and knowledgeable. They really have the expertise to customize your ride and help it reach it's maximum potential. The staff are not self taught backyard mechanics. They spent years at leading high end car brand dealerships earning the designations such as Master Tech before they followed their own entrepreneurial paths. I definitely trust them with my rides and so should you.

When my husband and I decided to purchase a Mercedes for our family car, my biggest worry is the maintenance and cost of it. I'm very lucky my friend recommended Stance Lab! Wilson and Aaron are the best!! Aside from knowing the ins and outs of european cars, they are honest, hard working and kind! I live all the way in Antioch but I'd rather drive to South San Francisco to get their quality service!

I had a great experience working with Wilson and Aaron at Stance Lab. They did a full paint correction and ceramic coating on my NSX and the car looks amazing. They accurately quoted the amount of time it would take to do the job, and promptly let me know when the car was ready. I highly recommend this shop.

I had the opportunity to work with Wilson on my 2016 C300. I needed to have a cop radar installed and he showed me how he had installed his own on his own car, I loved how it looked so I asked if he could so the same for me. He initially quoted me for 2 hours of work. When I came to get the car, he told me it took less time than anticipated, and he lowered the price. Very honest, extremely knowledgeable, even recommended what dealership I should go to since I just got my Mercedes and gave me the name of a service advisor.
Overall, I loved the service. Not the cheapest place, but you're paying

A San Francisco Car Wrap Services and Innovations done by Stance Lab.
I know this place for a while now and I always wondered how this auto wrapping system works as far as to be applied on cars. Lok's showed me a while ago how important is to have a clear shiny bra on a car. He applied a piece of clear bra on my black Ford F-150's tail gate and I had it there for a while till I sold my truck. I have a Nissan Frontier now and I will trying to get a hold of Loks to have some of the clear bra applied on my head lights to keep them new. This is a great nice shop they are operating in South
