What Our Customers Say

“With an appointment, I arrived at Empire Motorsports & Line-X. I was greeted by Ryan and received very prompt service. His crew went to work and followed each request I had passed on. Within hours it was finished and I could not have asked for a better job of applying Line-X coating to my new truck.”

“Shout out to LINE-X for their lifetime warranty. They replaced my tonneau cover without hesitation and Ryan at Empire made it super easy from beginning to end. Quick and hassle free.”

“Hands down best company out here for LINE-X and vehicle customization. Floyd, Jason, Jake, and Ryan are great guys and an amazing team. Wouldn't take my truck anywhere else.”

“Floyd and the team at Empire did an incredible job on my lift kit. They took the time to explain every step and the truck drives better than it ever has. These guys know lifted trucks inside and out.”

“I've had lift kits done at three different shops over the years. Empire is by far the most thorough. They did a full alignment after the install and it was dialed in perfectly. Worth every penny.”

“Jake handled my 4-inch lift on my F-250 and I was blown away. Same-day completion, truck sits level, no rubbing. They also caught a worn CV boot during the inspection and gave me a heads up before it became a real problem.”

“Got a BAKFlip tonneau cover and running boards installed same day. Jason and the crew were fast, professional, and the fitment was perfect. My truck looks completely different.”

“Ryan walked me through all the options for nerf bars and didn't try to oversell me. Ended up with exactly what I needed and the installation was clean — no scratches, no gaps.”

“I brought my Ram 1500 in for a toolbox and running board install. The team finished faster than expected and everything was torqued properly. Empire treats your truck like it's their own.”

“Floyd helped me spec out a Fuel wheel and BFGoodrich KO2 package that was exactly what I was looking for. They did the mount, balance, and TPMS programming all in one shot. Truck looks killer.”

“I came in not knowing exactly what I wanted and Jake spent 20 minutes with me going through fitment options. Ended up with Method Race Wheels and Nitto Ridge Grapplers. No rubbing, perfect stance.”

“Empire did the wheels and lift on my Tundra as a package. The alignment after everything was installed was spot on and the ride is incredibly smooth. These guys know truck builds from the ground up.”

“Had Bilstein 5100s installed front and rear on my 4Runner. The difference in ride quality on the highway is night and day. Empire's guys know suspension — they explained exactly why they recommended the specific valving for my setup.”

“I came in with sagging rear springs on a heavily loaded work truck. Ryan diagnosed it in 5 minutes and had me sorted with new Rough Country add-a-leafs the same day. Back to riding level and hauling without bottoming out.”

“Jake did the Fox suspension build on my Tacoma and it's transformed the truck. Incredible off-road capability and way better on-road comfort. Worth every dollar.”

“Floyd built out my JL Wrangler with an ARB bumper, Warn winch, and Rough Country 3.5-inch lift. The attention to detail was impressive — wiring was clean and hidden, and everything was torqued to spec. Best Jeep shop in the IE.”

“Took my Gladiator to Empire for a bumper swap and light bar. Jake handled everything including the relay wiring for the lights. Couldn't be happier — professional work at a fair price.”

“These guys take Jeep builds seriously. They recommended a skid plate combo I hadn't considered and it's made a huge difference on trails. They know what breaks and what protects you. Highly recommend.”

“Ryan installed a Rigid Industries light bar and two LED pods on my Sierra. The wiring was completely hidden through the A-pillar and the mount is rock solid. Lights up the whole road.”

“Got a full KC HiLiTES LED upgrade — new headlights, fog lights, and under-bumper pods. Jake was thorough with the wiring and tested every circuit before I drove out. Night-and-day improvement.”

“Empire wired up a switch panel with four auxiliary circuits for my overland build. Floyd did the work and it's as clean as anything I've seen from shops charging twice as much.”

“Got ceramic tint done on my whole truck. The installer took his time around the curves and the result is bubble-free and perfectly even. My cab stays noticeably cooler and the tint still looks factory.”

“Ryan walked me through the legal shades for my front windows versus the rear and helped me pick the right ceramic film. Install was same-day and I haven't had a bubble or peel in two years.”

“I got lifetime warranty ceramic tint on my Silverado. Way less heat coming in, GPS still works perfectly, and the tint looks clean on the body lines. Worth it over the cheap stuff.”

“Jake installed a BAKFlip MX4 on my F-150. The install was tight, the seals look factory, and the cover folds back completely for full bed access. I can already feel a difference in wind noise on the highway.”

“Empire had the RetraxPRO I wanted in stock and installed it same day. Ryan walked me through the mechanism and made sure I understood how the drain hoses worked. Great experience.”

“Got the TruXedo TruXport on my Ram — straightforward install and a huge improvement in fuel economy. Empire staff know the tonneau brands well and didn't try to sell me something I didn't need.”

“Had AMP Research PowerSteps installed on my Expedition. Floyd did the wiring and they deploy and retract smoothly every single time. My kids can get in and out without any help now.”

“Jake installed Westin nerf bars on my Tundra. The brackets were tight, no flex, and the polished finish looks great against the factory paint. Quick, professional work.”

“Ryan helped me choose between running boards and tube steps for off-road clearance. Ended up with rock sliders that double as steps — best of both worlds. Empire knows truck builds.”

“Empire did a full ceramic coating on my new Tacoma before I ever took it off the lot. The hydrophobic effect is incredible — water just sheets right off. Best investment I've made in that truck.”

“The paint correction they did before applying the ceramic was impressive. They found a couple of light swirls I hadn't even noticed and fixed them first. The final result looks better than new.”

“I waited two years before getting ceramic coating done and wish I hadn't. Floyd and the team spent two full days doing it right. Now the paint stays cleaner longer and washing takes half the time.”

“Empire upfitted three of our Ford Transits with Adrian Steel shelving. All three came out identical, organized exactly how our technicians need them, and the install quality is solid. Worth doing it professionally.”

“Jason handled our Sprinter van build-out. We needed specific compartment layouts and he made it work. Our tools are organized, the shelving is secure, and the van looks professional when we open the doors.”

“Had Empire install a headache rack and ladder rack on my ProMaster. The rack is solid, properly mounted to the bed rails, and rated for a full ladder load. Quick turnaround and fair pricing.”

“Got a Ranch Hand bumper with winch prep installed on my Silverado. The fitment was perfect and the wiring harness for the lights was handled cleanly. It's a completely different looking truck now.”

“Floyd installed an ARB front bumper on my Land Cruiser. Tight fitment, proper torque specs, and the winch mount was ready to go. These guys do serious truck work.”

“Had a Fab Fours rear bumper and hitch receiver installed. Jake handled both and everything came out level and properly torqued. My trailer pulls straighter now with the improved receiver geometry.”

“Jake installed a Borla cat-back on my F-150 5.0. The sound is exactly what I wanted — aggressive at full throttle, quiet at cruise. No drone on the highway. They also made sure all the hangers were seated properly.”

“MagnaFlow axle-back on my Tacoma. Ryan did the install and called me when he noticed the factory flange was slightly corroded. Gave me the option to address it before it became a bigger problem. That's the kind of honesty I appreciate.”

“Empire installed the Flowmaster on my Tacoma and the fitment was perfect. No rattles, no leaks, sounds exactly like the clips on YouTube. Professional work.”

“Got a full Rough Country skid plate kit installed on my JK Wrangler. The transfer case and oil pan skids are beefy and everything mounted clean. Floyd made sure the ground clearance was within my spec for the trails I run.”

“Jake installed rock sliders and a belly skid on my 4Runner. I've since run two trail days and everything held up without a mark. These guys know what they're doing for serious off-road builds.”

“Empire installed ARB skid plates and rock sliders on my Tacoma. Solid quality and the install was clean. They drilled into the frame exactly as the instructions specified — nothing improvised.”

“Empire did XPEL PPF on the full front end of my new Tundra. The edges are invisible and the film is already healing a rock chip I picked up on the freeway. Exactly what I needed for a daily driver.”

“Floyd handled the PPF on my wife's SUV. He explained the difference between self-healing film and standard clear bra and recommended the right product for our budget. The install is flawless — looks like glass.”

“I got partial PPF on the front bumper, hood, and fenders on my TRD Pro. The film is completely invisible and has already prevented two rock chips from reaching the paint. Worth every dollar.”

“After my 3-inch lift, my other shop couldn't get the alignment dialed in properly. Empire uses Hunter HawkEye equipment and they understood the geometry changes from the lift. Truck tracks straight and the tire wear is even now.”

“Ryan did my alignment after a new set of wheels and tires. He printed the before and after spec sheet and walked me through the adjustments. It's the most detailed alignment service I've had.”

“Same-day alignment service on my lifted Tundra. Empire has the right equipment for lifted trucks and the experience to know the correct specs for lifted geometry. Truck drives straight as an arrow.”

“Got a LEER 100RCC color-matched to my factory paint. Jake ordered it and called me when it arrived. The install took a few hours and the gaps are even all the way around. Looks like it came from the factory.”

“Empire set me up with an ARE topper for my Tundra work truck. I specified the sliding rear window and roof rack and they handled all of it. Super clean install and the locks work smooth.”

“Floyd helped me choose between a SnugTop and a LEER based on how I use the truck. Ended up with the right choice for my needs and the install was done right. No leaks even in the car wash.”

“Jake installed a Warn 9.5xp on my new Warn bumper. The wiring is run clean through the firewall and the winch mounted solid. He showed me the proper pull angles before I left — exactly the kind of walkthrough you want for recovery gear.”

“Empire installed a Smittybilt X2O on my Jeep and used synthetic rope at my request. Floyd was very knowledgeable about the differences between synthetic and steel and didn't push me one way or the other. Clean, professional install.”

“Got a Superwinch installed as a complete package with a new front bumper. Jason handled the entire build in one day. The wiring is hidden, the isolator is properly sized, and the winch pulls exactly at rated capacity.”

“Ryan installed a K&N intake on my 5.7 Tundra. The throttle response improvement was immediately noticeable and the sound under acceleration is a nice bonus. He also confirmed it's CARB-compliant for California.”

“Got an aFe MOMENTUM intake installed on my Duramax. Clean install, no air leaks, and the boost response is definitely sharper. Empire staff know their performance parts.”

“Floyd installed a cold air intake and exhaust on my Ram in the same visit. Both CARB legal, no warning lights, and the truck pulls noticeably harder through the midrange. Great package deal.”

“Jake flashed an Edge Evolution on my Silverado and walked me through all three tune levels. The economy tune already improved my MPG on the commute and the tow tune is perfect for my boat. Exactly what I needed.”

“Got a DiabloSport inTune installed on my Coyote F-150. Ryan explained the difference between each tune and helped me pick the right one for daily use. Throttle response is much sharper and the speedo correction for my larger tires works perfectly.”

“Empire installed a Banks Power system on my diesel F-250. Floyd was very thorough about what's CARB-legal and what isn't for California. Ended up with a legitimate power increase and stayed compliant.”

“Floyd re-geared my Jeep from 3.73s to 4.88s after going to 37-inch tires. The pattern setup was spot on — quiet at highway speed and no backlash. He walked me through the break-in procedure before I left. These guys know diffs.”

“Had an ARB Air Locker installed in the rear axle of my 4Runner. Jake did the work and tested the locker at pressure before I drove off. It engages and disengages perfectly. Excellent technical work.”

“Empire diagnosed a clunk in my driveshaft as a worn slip yoke and had it sorted same day. Fair pricing and they caught the issue instead of upselling me on a full drivetrain rebuild. Honest shop.”

“Jason built out four of our fleet trucks with Reading service bodies. The builds were consistent across all four vehicles and every compartment was exactly where our crew specified. This is what fleet work should look like.”

“Got a Knapheide utility body installed on my Ram 3500. The compartment layout was customized to fit my electrical business needs. Empire was the only shop in the area that could handle the build properly.”

“Empire installed a headache rack and toolboxes on my contractor truck. Everything mounted solid and the toolbox locks are heavy duty. Jake even re-routed a wire harness I had run poorly myself. Professional from start to finish.”

“Brought my Polaris RZR in for a LINE-X coating on the bed and fenders. The result is perfect — grippy, tough, and it cleaned up the scuffs from the first season of riding. Ryan knew exactly how to prep the plastic surface.”

“Empire installed a Baja Designs light bar and side pods on my Can-Am X3. Jake ran the wiring clean under the body panels and the switch panel mounts inside the cage. These guys understand UTV builds.”

“Floyd did a full LINE-X and accessory build on my trailer — LINE-X on the floor and fenders, D-ring tie-downs, and a winch mount on the nose. Everything is solid and the coating already took a scrape from a rock with no damage to the trailer.”
