Who's dealership is cool with installing aftermarket?

It seems the dealership I bought my car from does not like or even refusing installing aftermarket parts on my car even if they were common wear items like break pads and rotors or maybe even a clutch?.. I mean if they are infiniti specialists I would like them to do work such as a clutch on my car that way I could go back to them if I had a problem or something.

When I had my Mitsubishi Evolution.. they would install anything aftermarket at the dealership except for internals such as cams, cam gears, springs, retainers etc..

They would be glad to install stuff like clutches, shocks, struts, etc..

Infact Mitsubishi said to all, If you want your car still warrantied for transmission and clutch issues it must be installed by Mitsubishi regarding any aftermarkets like Exedy and ACT.

What gives? how are your dealerships on aftermarket parts?

that sux. I work at a dealer and you should see some of the installs we do and cars we put in the showroom. But yeah, most infiniti dealerships are kinda scary when it comes to aftermarket, like it's a bad word or something.

Well i used to own a evo also, and when it was stock i tried to get something warrentied and they wouldnt fix it. I cant imgine them even wanting to work on it after i did all the modifications to it. Some dealers just use aftermarkets parts as a excuse not to warrenty ****. Some just dont want to deal with the parts cause there not oem. It really depends on the dealer.

I work at Inskip Infiniti in Warwick, RI and we install and stock Stillen High Performance parts for our entire car and SUV line. And it does not void your Factory warrenty as long as it's installed by a Infiniti Delarship.

I goto Kelly Infiniti in Danvers and I can vouch for them being mod friendly, but why would you want them to do installs and pay a labor rate of $90 an hour. If you are lookin for a place to get installs done on your G goto Avalon Racing. I think their even a sponsor here and their located in Winchester and have a shop up in Manchester NH as well. They have plenty of experience working on the G35 coupe. Last time I was up their their was 2 vortech G's outside.

well if something goes wrong with it later, you have the sense of knowing they installed the part and wont try to blame it on that....

Field's Infiniti of Glencoe has been very cool w/ aftermarket stuff. They even have displays of all of stillen's offerings for the g35. They are also working on an 06 coupe-putting on stillen performance parts on it and even installing Lambo doors-sweet...

Tischer Nissan in Laurel, Maryland is "Mod-crazy!!" They'll install any and all aftermarket parts, and they're very good at it, and very customer-oriented!!!!

Well Danver's is not that far away.. the reason being I really like how infiniti's warranty is, as compared to Honda, Nissan, Toyota, and Mitsubishi which I've owned all of their cars. I'm a person who needs a veichle everyday and warranty is something to take advantage of not void.
