Well ive had experience with two of those places...Pitstop and Image
Pitstop- The guys dont treat ya good unless you're persian which is ridiculous. I went there, got quoted on some stuff, then my persian buddy went in for me and they offered him the same stuff for 20% less just cuz he spoke to them in Farsi... Never will go back there again.
Image- Nice guys, but a lil over priced IMO. However Bruno (I think hes the owner) didnt charge me tax cuz I paid cash!
Now I usually just pull a DIY! That saves the biggest bucks!

Rep Power: 0 For parts-JRP in Mississauga, helpful, friendly, cheap prices. They also gave me install tips. 
Splitfire in Brampton, got coilover sleves for my 90 Accord (when I was a noob to all of this). Sold me Civic coilovers (bounce!!), installed a rear shock backwards, forgot to tighten a front control arm bolt, left my rear carpet and panels a mess. Although they are highly recommended by some, I had a bad experience.

They sell and install performance parts, suspension, rims, bodykits, wings, accessories, etc.
My current car is stock, but my past cars (92 Civic and 00 1.6EL) had a bunch of stuff done there (header, catback exhaust, strut bars, fog lights, spoiler, tires, etc.).
