I would have much rather waited to have my vehicle completed before leaving a review, but I’ll offer perspective to this point. The service at vehicle delivery and the front desk is great. The team communicates very well with customers. I am disappointed that when I came to pick up my vehicle, that items that I pointed out weren’t fixed. This ultimately resulted in me leaving my vehicle in the shop for additional work. Rather than describing at a high level of granularity the problems that I saw with my vehicle, I’ll remain optimistic that they will be addressed accordingly.

Customer Service

The staff is courteous and friendly.

I will be recommending Bay Custom to all of my friends and family in the future.
