Honestly not sure where to look. I will be working in Palo Alto and my wife will be working at the southern tip of Fremont, almost to San Jose I believe. We were kind of looking in the Fremont area as it seemed to be a bit cheaper than the surrounding areas but honestly not sure what areas are "good" or "bad". Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Long tube headers will not pass the Visual inspection in CA period.

There should be plenty of shops up and around that area. ask here in the western section or Maybe look on tech. You might also find Some car groups in that area such as through facebook.
