Hello, some of you may already know me, but wanted to do a more comprehensive thread about my shop. My name is Kalvin and I am the owner of CTECH Automotive out here in (far north) Dallas/Ft. Worth (DFW) area. My shop specializes in Type Rs from EK9, DC2R, FK8, FL5. We also work on other makes/models, but Type Rs are our bread and butter.

Figured since we have had many CivicXI forum members become our valued customers both for service and parts sales, I'd do a quick photo dump of some of our CivicXI customers (and some of our own shop car build as well) and try to keep up with this thread as much as possible since the regional section here don't get much traffic.

We offer a wide variety of services including aftermarket parts sales (including tires and wheels), to general maintenance/repair, tire mount and balance, to service and installs.
