Eddie and his staff came highly recommended from my co worker. Figured I’d give them a shot. Wasn’t disappointed. Had my 93 special edition foxbody vert tinted, new stereo system installed and alarm. Eddie is a gentleman and true to his word. Reassured me if there were any problems he would take care of it. I gave them a shot and so should you. Thanks!
Did window tint here a week ago results came out extremely well. At first there were some bubbles not too bad. but after a week They were gone . 100% highly recommended. Especially cool guy named Eddie he worked me all the way through the process ! !
I dont normally write review or leave stars unless they really deserved it. But let me tell you, Eddie and his crew did a really great job for installing and wiring my underglow. If there is 100 stars, i would deff give that. The whole process went smooth from entering the shop to leaving the shop. Eddie is a man of his word and when he said he take care of you, he mean it. Oh and the price was very reasonable. I dont know what more you can ask for. Customer service is top notch. Go see Eddie for all ur automobile needs and hell work with pricing to fit your budget.
Called multiple shops to install Underglow and then I came across Eddie. He got me in right away and got everything done perfectly with a good deal. A great shop with good workers and I will be coming back for any other modifications here only. Eddie is the best!!!!
Eddie the man! Great customer service! Very professional!Got my car tinted, they did great job. Thank you! Definitely will recommend my friends and will be coming back. 🤙🏽
Went to this spot for my camaro and was reallyhooked up. did my tints and vinal stripes. Eddie did a great job and gave me an amazing deal. I will definitely be going back for more work.
I went into idea first for a tint job and I was amazed at how great Eddie and his staff were. I knew going in they were great but when I saw the finished job it was even better than I expected. 10/10 work and the guys at the shop were great very friendly. Was looking into a chrome delete to go along with my new tinted windows and when I went in Eddie gave me a great price. I would recommend idea first to anyone who is interest in quality tints.
Installed apple carplay on my BMW X1. The staff was very professional and very friendly and I really enjoyed my experience there. They did everything from ordering the parts for me to even cleaning my car. I will definitely recommend them for any car modifications you need. They are the best
Came in to Idea automotive to install my MMI backup camera. Eddie gave me a great deal but also with a free car wash with ceramic spray. Great people to deal with must check these guys out.
Came across this beautiful store and met with the manager his name is Eddie very polite and respectful. We spoke on prices on numerous jobs to get done on my car he gave me a fantastic deal best price I got out there so I went with him and got the work done I did. Ceramic coating upgrade my music system and window tints I so pleased with him workmanship thanks EDDIE and crew THE BEST IN NEW HYDE PARK HIGHLY Recommended
Eddy and the team at Idea First we’re the best when it came to tinting my X2.Everything was done professionally and service was amazing.I recommend the team when it comes anything to personalize your vehicle.I look forward to returning soon.
From start to finish Idea First Automotive was amazing. Walking in Eddie gave me all the help i needed. I was looking to do tints and paint my rims black. Eddie really hooked it up with a fair price and great time frame. When picking it up the car it was just as pleasurable and i was so happy with the way it looked . Probably the best job i’ve seen on tints. the wheels looked fantastic. A really big thanks to Eddie and the team over at Idea First Automotive. I’ll definitely be returning for some more work.
Best service and work ever. Eddie really took good care of my car. Excellent job done by him and his crew. I highly recommend this shop. I added some photos how windshield and got a free car wash this is how it came out like
Idea First was great to work with. I found out about them through a recommended installer from a Bimmertech which is an auto parts manufacturer. Got in touch with Eddie and he made the entire process smooth. Even called the parts manufacturer prior to my appointment to make sure he had all the information needed for my install. Was also able to get tints done at the best price around. Definitely recommend Idea First for any type of installations you may need.
This place is very professional and all the guys there have been amazing with the best experience so far. this place is highly recommended and they tinted my truck for super cheap compared to outside competitors and they also did the work without any mistakes or bubbles in my tint. Eddie the manager is the guy you should see when you get here, very understanding and is very straightforward and knows his stuff!
Came to get my SUV tinted, came out better than I thought! Best staff, best prices, they will work with you until you are satisfied. Hands down the best shop there is. Will definitely be back and will definitely bring them a few extra customers! Look for Eddy, he will hook it up!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
What can I say about the crew here at idea first awesome work and really took the time to replace my old tint on my car with ceramic and also went above and beyond giving the car a wash I’ll definitely be back for other service with Devan and Eddie awesome group of guys.
I wanted tints on my new Jeep did some research and came across Eddie at idea first motor sport not only he had the great prices he was very polite and friendly great staff and I love the way the tints came out. Highly recommended EDDIE iS THE BEST BIG THANKs To HiM AND HIS TEAM
Eddie at Idea Auto did an amazing job on my custom wrap, it looks amazing and everyone was very professional. I will definitely be back! Thank you
Just dropped my truck off for the 2nd time for Eddie and his crew to do their magic. He told me the first time my truck was there (for tints and then sound) that if there was anything auto related I needed to hit him up first. Shot him a message last night about getting the truck bed bedlined and he had the material ordered and truck in the shop the next day. Cant say enough good things about these guys. A++++++
Eddie was great to work with. He was professional, accommodating and easy going. He installed our agency police light and siren package. After the initial installation there was a battery drainage issue. He took the vehicle back and fixed the problem. I would definitely recommend any agency who want to install their lights and sirens to go to Eddie.JimmySpecial AgentOffice of Inspector General
Daven and Eddie were extremely helpful and patient with my questions. I got my new BMW windows tinted there and they did a phenomenal job. Will bring my other cars in to do the same as well as getting it detailed and washed, and potentially wrapped!
Got my tints done and Eddie took such good care. He was very helpful and honest in choosing what kind of tints to get for my car.
Awesome work, attention to detail, great customer service, and the price was right!I went into idea first for a tint job and I was amazed at how great Eddie and his staff were. I had to go back!Ideal first is the place to go for all your automotive requirements. I had my car remote start/alarm system installed and I couldn’t be happier. Eddy, the manager there is very kind and knowledgeable about the work that they do. Prices are fairly reasonable and won’t break the bank!They do awesome work at Idea First! I highly recommend them and I will definitely be back!I will be doing my roof wrap soon and will provide another review.2013 G37X
💯 % satisfaction! I took my car in for window tinting and spoke with Eddie. He was pleasant, easy going & straight forward when explaining the process and variety of tint grading options available. A job that would normally take 2 hours to complete was accomplished in an hour because he had 2 guys working on the car. By the time I returned from Dunkin’ Donuts the job was finished - I didn’t even get to finish drinking my coffee.
I was looking for a local car audio store to install an aftermarket CarPlay unit to my car. After a couple of phone calls, I chose Idea Automotives. Eddie, the store manager, was extremely helpful and patient. After installing the unit that I brought over, he realized that was the wrong unit for my car. He did the research and found the correct one. He installed it and now it is working flawlessly. Kudos to Eddie and the owner, Dave. They are extremely friendly, professional and pleasant to work with. Highly recommended.
Had a new radio and backup camera installed at another car audio dealer. Unfortunately, didnt do my due diligence and check to make sure that everything was working as should. Discovered the following day that radio reception was bad (both AM & FM). Called dealer and was given the royal runaround and basically told that it was ultimately my fault. Decided to call Eddie and was told to bring in vehicle for a diagnosis. Turns out that old place had messed up the wiring. One of the technicians rectified the problem and Eddie didnt charge me for the job. My only regret is not going to Idea First Automative in the first place.
Called over the phone a little earlier in the day and let ‘em know i was coming in. i walked right in, was greeted by Eddie, great guy, he checked out the car and let me know what percentage would look best. got the job done very quickly and with good quality. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Eddie is the GOAT makes the process super simple easy to talk to and work withhes very knowledgeable. The crew takes their time on your car to make sure its 100% how you want it. Came in for some tints and left with tints and a sound system for a really good price. Overall 5/5Thanks Eddie !
Just got tints done, very quick and great quality. They work with you on prices, great prices. Love the staff, very funny and respectful people. I will definitely be back for more stuff. I will recommend everyone to go there.
A few months ago my car got into a serious accident and needed to be wrapped after it was done from the body shop . Eddie was one of the nicest employees I have ever spoken to walking me through the process of wrapping my car what colors I should choose . He was so nice that I decided to also upgrade my sound system with them . Everything was done professionally and in a timely manner . I recommend everyone to shop at idea first automotive !
Eddie is an amazing manager, extremely helpful and will work with you and provide you with ideas that will make your car look amazing. Did some work on my fx, this thing look dope, will definitely recommend others to him and trust him with my car. Ask for Eddie
My boy eddie really did an amazing job turned my 2019 q50 from rag to riches in a day. This is the most amazing turnout i have ever had for any of my cars. EDDIE IS THE MAN TO SEE IF YOU LIVE IN NY. He is the best, he beyond exceeded my expectations. I will never go to another shop again. 1 stop shop.

I had a hitch installed on my new Toyota Venza today and window tinting done on both driver’s and passenger side windows. The quality of the workmanship and the customer service I received were both exceptional. Eddie, the store manager, and his staff were extremely professional, attentive and responsive to all of my concerns. And, the entire job was done very quickly and at a great price. An A+/5 Stars in every category.
The team over at idea first motorsports are always awesome and easy to work with. my man eddie helps me with all my auto needs. they also have the best prices in town!
I loved the service they provided. I was given a good quality radio for the price and Eddie was super helpful and kind to customers. This was the second place I visited, in search of an affordable radio replacement and I was NOT disappointed. 10/10
I am a new driver with pretty much basic knowledge of automotives. I stepped into the shop, Eddie the big man, helped me with all the queries,walkes me through his workshop area and shown in real how the desired installtion would work and that left me with zero doubts.I highly highly recommend this place to everybody. I left the store with great satisfaction .
Very nice place for installing my vehicle’s floor mat. Eddie is nice guy and knows his job how to do so. You should check this out for any kind of installation for your vehicle. Thank you Eddie
I want to thank Eddie for the great job the did on my 2019 Toyota Camry they tint it 20% all around. Great price and good guy so far the best shop I have seen in Long Island highly recommend
Our company had an amazing experience at Idea First Motor sports. The service was amazing and attention to detail was impeccable. We highly recommend this business for your car needs.
My man Eddie took my 2013 Dodge Durango, from “rags to riches”, no cap! Wrapped my roof, upgraded my tailights, had my rims sent out to get painted, calipers , upgraded my system, in addition to giving me advice and suggestions, about what to do and what not to do, in his opinion regarding the whip! All without breaking the bank, with the upmost craftsmanship as well! Hands down, I think I found my new spot, for any further upgrades, no question about it,.. thanks again Eddie, to you and your crew!!!
I had a little issue with my installation that I bought, I managed to reach out to Idea First Automotive and right away Daven scheduled me for an estimate, they were able to configure the problems, wired the system properly extremely fast. The store manager, Mario also provided me with good recommendation and less than two hours; the installation was seamless completed with the professional installation. I am EXTREEMELY happy and highly recommend them!
Definitely recommend idea first motorsport. They did a great job on my car. Eddy was professional and gave a good deal on pricing.
Stop by because of location, and was blown away how Eddie took care of me and my 22 accord. Sound system and tints ALL in one shot. A price that nobody can compete and the type of service I have never received, and I’m in the service industry. If there was a 10star button I would give it. Thank you Eddie!
No better place to go if you need Tints. From the moment I called Eddie he said “I’ll take care of you.” Came right in and he got right to work. Car was ready in a few hours. Amazing work!

Excellent service got my tint done. I recommend their service. Friendly customer service. They stayed late to get the job done I even met the owner.
Customer service is very good, they assisted me right away, brought me to an understanding of how the service is done, and took care of me right away. I’m my case, it was my car putting tints and I couldn’t be any happier of how it came out.
Eddie was great, hooked me up with a great deal. Great shop and work, honestly. Would recommend to anyone near the area
Great customer service and good prices, Eddie will definitely work with you and get whatever you need done to your vehicle
I called and asked if there was any service for my car radio. The guy on the phone asked what type of radio, I said it was a stock radio that keeps turning on and off. He said bring it in, we’ll take a look. Got there and the same guy that told me to come, told me they don’t work on stock radios. That I had to buy one that will cost more than $400 according to the manager. Thanks for wasting my time.
Great experience! Eddie was great!… had underglow installed and even got a free car wash. 5 stars!
Came all the way to Yonkers to get my windows tinted all around. Came out great. Would definitely come back here for any future upgrades for my car. Eddie’s the man.
You gotta come here to get right. Come here and make sure you speak to eddie. That man is the best thing coming out of this shop. He will definitely get you right within your budget. Dont be afraid to come out here and have a good time either.
Idea First did a great job with my PPF installation. Eddie was great to deal with - excellent work!
Eddie hooked it up definitely checked them out
Eddie was amazing gave me a great deal and will come back to do other cars!
Called for a quote and person was rude, told me to call back then hung up on me because they were too busy with another customer. I didnt even get to respond before he hung up. Needless to say I didnt call back and I took my business else where.
Great group of guys very knowledgeable of their craft.The shop manager Eddie is very involved and take the time to explain every step of the way. The price is phenomenal and the quality of work is beyond this world. Shop is very clean and inviting. I was extremely satisfied with the service that they provided. Im definitely looking forward to get all my work and customization done here at Idea 1st automotive.
Ideal first is the place to go for all your automotive needs. I have my car system installed and I couldn’t be happier. Eddy, the manager there is very kind and knowledgeable about the work that they do. Prices are reasonable and won’t break the pocket! Thank you Ideal, I’m highly recommending this to all my friends!
The idea first automotive family was worth the drive from New Jersey. Eddie and the team are a great group of guys they installed my remote/auto start for my car along with top of the line window tints. I definitely recommend them for all of your car needs.
5/5I had a Compustar security system + Blackvue camera installed. Pricing was great, service was outstanding.Loving the install and the technology.Would certainly go back, happy to have worked with Eddie and his team.
Idea first was extremely professional. I completely love how they are willing to go above and beyond to ensure I’m getting a quality product for my car. 5 out of 5 star experience!
100% recommend, went in to get a new exhaust installed and they did a great job. Anything you need they got you covered. And if you don’t have the cash, they can help you get a loan that you pay monthly.
Ask for Eddie. Great work done on my car. Time used efficiently and hooked it up on the low. Definitely coming back here.
He does alot of different work here very respectful nice clean shop. His tent work is ammaculate and prices are very resonable. Eddie was the best he helped me out alot. I would recommend this place to anyone.
I Have a Car that needed a new stereo. I knew nothing about Idea first sounds. I googled car stereo installer near me and Idea First came up. I read the reviews and saw that Eddie received a lot of nice reviews. So I gave a call and Eddie answered. I came in to meet Eddie and Eddie was a total gentleman and easy to talk with. Eddie has a nice demeanor. I was looking for a certain Apple Car Play radio because I had an old standard that was outdated. I had one in mind but Eddie immediately switched me over to a soundview. I was not familiar with the Soundview but my friend who is a stereo guy said it was good. So I went with Eddies advice and he saved me a few hundred dollars on the radio. I also went with a reverse camera which is very helpful, I didnt even think about it but Eddie being the ultimate salesman suggested it and I am happy he did. It made a lot of sense. I was nervous to leave my car because I did not know these guys. So I dropped the car off and Eddie was nice enough to have Dave drive me home. Dave was great. He is a car guy! We talked cars the whole ride home. Turns Out they did a great job on replacing my stereo! It was done beautifully and professionally. Turns out Dave is a electronics Whiz. He helped me set up my phone to the car and explained it in laymans terms because I can be technologically challenged at times. So for anyone who is looking to Use Idea First Automotive I would Strongly recommend them. Eddie and Dave are great!!! Plain and simple,Good Guys!!!
Great shop with even better service. Eddie Hernandez, the best customer service in the business. Everything runs smooth here and can’t wait to come back to get more work done!
Awesome place never had a bad experience. Eddie over there is the best and always hooks me up on new truck accessories. Great prices and all around 5 star experience!

Had my coilovers installed for my 2015 Mustang here and they did a great job. Daven even gave me his personal cell and textes me with updates. Daven also stayed late so that I could pick up my car the same day. Charged $50 more than originally quoted but the inatall was harder and took longer than expected. Phenomenal job done and great shop.
Outstanding service called in asking about tints and they saw me the same day!!! Very professional and very friendly. Anyone looking to make some serious improvements to their car at a good price with great service should come here.
Top of the line products Eddie is the man to talk to excellent prices.I went in to switch from hid to led done in less then a hours excellent work and on point I recommend everyone to come to this store
Took all my vehicles to this shop to get tints done very neat jobs done. Very helpful customer services highly recommended.
I had a really good experience. Kenny is the person to see because he is honest and reliable. He will fix the car and deliver it on time. Most importantly, Kenny is honest and upfront. There are no surprises with anything. I already know what I will be getting and what I will be paying. I would recommend this place!
After having a horrible experience trying to get an insurance photo inspection at BP on union and NHP road and denied for 5 days in a row I came across this shop. I am so glad I did. Davin is a SWEETHEART. I was so sweet to my 5 yr old niece as well. While I was there I set an apt to get tints on my new TLX this coming week!!! It’s because of his friendly demeanor I made the apt. I’ve already recommended friends to go check this place out!! Thanks Davin!!!!! Can’t wait to get my tints!! I’ll post an update after as well.
Added extra $150 charge AFTER install was done and was quoted $156 leaving me no choice but to pay it to get my car back. Crooks and the work is sub par to say the least. $306 total. Then lied on google reviews and said it was only the smart start install charge however now I will post the proof so these scammers can’t lie. If you value your car or your money you will not go here. Choose a different shop. You’ve been warned
Caveats First, Ideas SecondPurchased components for my car which rusted through after 2 New York. winters. Paid for the same thing twice, on the same car. I understand things are non-OEM in certain instances, but caveats at the time of sale of Hey, this is going to rust through in 2 years, consider paying $XX for this if dont want to pay for it 2x and make two trips to install it twice which will cost you more than double would be an ethical thing to do.
I went to this place to install the front bumper of my Chevy Traverse and they did a very good job very professionally. I recommend this place to anyone who wants to make modifications to their cars. Good prices, good service👍👍👍👍👍 thank you for make a good job
Amazing service, I came here for photo inspection and you can tell they are very good with their customers. Even for something small like a photo inspection, they were very attentive, fast and efficient. Will be coming back to do business again!!
Great service and amazing costumer service
Idea First Automotive is a well-managed store. I highly recommend!
THEY FRIED MY CARS ECM DURING THE CAR INSTALLATION, THE MANAGER REFUSED TO PAY OR FIX MY CAR REPAIR.EVEN WHEN HE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT HE FRIED THE ECM HE STILL REFUSED.ITS NO FAIR THAT I HAD TO PAY OUT OF MY POCKET FOR SOMETHING THAT THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR! I REGRET GOING HERE.DO NOT RECCOMEND AT ALL
Service is A+. Unfortunately, they are asking $25 service fee for a free inspection !!!? and then they ask for tips when he cant get the $25 service fee ?!!!!!!!! Thats a shame
They are amazing I am so happy with how my car turned out!! The service is great I highly recommend Ideal First!!!
Great place, great prices… Eddie hooked it up!!
Had a great 👍 experience, very fast service really helpful, had a problem with my interlock device, they figured out the problem and took care of it,I give idea 5 ⭐

I am very pleased with the work Eddie and his team did for me at idea first motor sport I got some upgraded speakers for my 2020 Jeep Wrangler and so happen I ordered for the wrong year wrangler but Eddie and his team did some custom work and made it work for me I am so happy with the work they did. And I highly suggest that if you need any upgrades or and work done to to check out Eddie before going any other place he got the best prices and will work with you to get the job done thanks again Eddie. Highly recommend
I would not recommend this place. I got my tints done couple months ago and recently after cleaning my car I noticed many cuts on the rubber trim around the windows as well as a cut to my leather door trim. There are some parts that the tint is already coming up at. If I had taken the time and inspected my car back then It woulda been better not anything I can do now but warn people.
Congratulations to Boss Huang of Weixin Automobile for opening another comprehensive physical store in Long Island for car sales, repairs, accessories, etc. No matter you buy various cars or sell cars, you can come to see or consult Boss Huang if you need it, haha 😄

2022-02-19I got chrome delete for my car, on all the trims and handles and grill, which also came with a 1 year warranty. It was done in less than 24 hours. I love the results and highly recommend Idea First Automotive shop to anyone looking for detailing for their car at good prices. Daven was super accommodating to my schedule, extremely helpful and responsive.

2022-03-17Eddie is the man. Got my grill wrapped black and got my 15% tints all around. Couldn’t be any happier! I highly recommend this place. They got me in and out, were all very friendly and clean, and they are very good with their pricing. If you need to get any work done to your car, come see Eddie!

2022-02-22I called Idea First Motor today just to inquire about tints for my car. I spoke with Eddie who was from the start of the call very informative! He told me to come right over, In the shop he walked me through each level of tint to help me decide what worked best for me. My car was done within two hours including a car wash very much appreciated 🙂. I highly recommend Idea First Motor very smooth and easy process let me not forget at a very reasonable price! Thanks again Eddie.

2022-05-28I got my windows tinted here and it was GREAT. The service was impeccable, the wait time was really short and the result was very satisfying. I walked in ( no existing appointment) and Eddie was able to quickly accommodate me, despite arriving close to closing. Not only was I happy with my tinted windows but the team at Idea First Automotive was extremely friendly and even went as far as giving me and my girlfriend a free pizza and an iced cold Coca Cola soda.Huge thanks to Eddie Hernandez !!!! I will definitely be coming back

2022-02-05This store provided the best customer service a customer couldn’t ever ask for. They were reasonable! Quick ! And did the work with professionalism. They took care of my Camaro ! If 10 stars was a option I would have given them a 10/10. The owner, Eddie is such a humble honest man. He was Great ! And also kept me entertained while I was waiting ! All his workers were extremely friendly and I felt very welcome ! He installed my underbody LED kit for me ! And couldn’t be happier with the out come!

2021-07-19Awesome work, attention to detail, great customer service, and the price was right! Dave fitted my 2021 Honda Pilot with a bull bar that does not interfere with my emergency braking system and looks great. He also put a double layer bumper guard on the back that looks great and will keep my bumper ding-free. I am so thankful to Dave and Beauty! They make a great team and I will be back for my roof rails and running boards. Forgot to mention that they also tinted my driver and passenger side windows. They do awesome work at Idea First! I highly recommend them and I will definitely be back!
