Good Mechanic in Buffalo, NY

Can anyone in Buffalo, NY recommend a good mechanic for my '05 G35? I'm sick of getting treated like crap and overcharged at Autoplace (I didn't buy it from them so they don't give a ****).

I need new brakes, and some basic service (coolant flush...). Any tips would be great!

You can do those yourself. Very easy if you have common sense.

Didn't mean to be rude, I wish I could do it myself (the DIY videos look like a blast) but I don't have the equipment, time, nor skill to be comfortable with something like changing the brakes.

well the only equipment you need is a long ratchet and some sockets and some brake grease. You can even use the stock jack that came with the car. As far as time, take a day off and as far as skill, Ill send you my chimp to guide you through. lol. Don't be scared of it, once you see how easy it is, youll keep doing it.

I would help you out but you are kinda far and im sure you dont wanna drive an hour for brakes. lol And for brakes, just take it any shop dude.
