New owners are jerks. Especially the jerk that answers the phone and works the front desk. Repair work with new parts inside 18 months & 10k milesof their 24 month 25k mile "warranty"! Like Tommy Boy said, regarding Callahn Brake pads. Anyone can crap in a box and guarantee it. Except these guys won't keep their word. So STAY AWAY DANGER. AVOID THIS PLACE. Florida Department of Consumer Affairs Claim FILED. Good luck, Fellas (NOT!)

Great service, fair prices, Employees were very nice and efficient. Quality work and it was done same day.There are new owners whom are very much involved with the customers and explained everything in detail but yet simply and we're very nice. With me being a female I was treated with respect. My family has always gone to Rainbow over the years and will continue to do so.

Inquired about doing a true dual exhaust on my hemi Ram. They were able to get me right in, give me a quote and start the work. The 2 guys that did the work did a fantastic job. They absolutely made sure before that truck came off the lift there were no leaks, no rattles and I was satisfied. I can say I was more than satisfied. Highly recommend them for your exhaust work!

Car broke down in the middle of the road, managed to get a jump. Gave them a call right after and it was before they were closing and they allowed me to drop my car off over night. Next morning, they gave me a call with the proper diagnosis and took care of it the same day. Told them I think it was the starter or alternator, and they still truthfully told me it was only my terminal that needed changing. Honest, quick and efficient work. 10/5 stars

Rainbow Muffler has done work for me twice now, both times with them going above and beyond in both the quality and speed of service. They will take care of you unlike most other shops. I cannot recommend them enough! Garret took great care of my part and did an amazing job.

Wow! What great customer service! The manager was extremely friendly and transparent, providing all the quotes upfront with no hard selling whatsoever. The techs were equally awesome, demonstrating expertise and professionalism throughout the process. I brought in my Honda CR-V, which had a persistent catalytic converter error code. I had already tried the induction cleaning method, but the issue remained. The team recommended replacing it with an OEM Magnaflow catalytic converter. When the job was complete, one of the techs brought me back to inspect the work—and honestly, I think he was just showing off his craftsmanship, but for good reason. The repair was flawless. He walked me through where the pre- and post-oxygen sensors were installed in the new unit and explained everything in detail. His welding was top-notch, and the finished product looked perfect. Best of all, no more error codes! The total cost fell well below the $1,000–$2,000 range that you typically hear about, so much more affordable than the price of a Honda catalytic converter replacement. While I was there, I also had an engine mount replaced, and even with that added repair, the final bill was surprisingly reasonable. My CR-V now drives smoother than ever. The shop itself is a comfortable spot, with plenty of seating both inside and outside. The entire process took about an hour, so if you’re waiting, you can grab a soft drink and snack from the store across the street. This place is definitely my new go-to for auto repairs!

Rainbow Muffler did an outstanding job on my Land Rover. I brought in my own catalytic converter downpipes and O₂ sensors, and they handled the entire install plus custom fabrication from the cats back to the rear section of the exhaust. They originally estimated 5–6 hours, but the team knocked it out in about 3 and the work is perfect. The welds are clean, the routing is solid, and the exhaust sounds and drives better than it has in years. What really impressed me is how honest they were — they pointed out that my rear stainless section was still in great shape and didn’t try to upsell me on unnecessary work. Everyone I talked to knew their stuff, treated me with respect, and the price was extremely fair for the quality and speed of the job. It’s rare to find a shop that takes pride in their work and treats customers right. Highly recommend Rainbow Muffler for exhaust and custom fabrication work. I'll be back for sure.

A wonderful locally owned and respectful auto shop. I have used them many times in the last year or so and each time they treat me well and the price is very fair. They work hard and are open great hours to service you

I’ve had a bit of work done from this place and I won’t go anywhere else. Very straight forward, quick and good at what they do. I also have received quotes from them for my work and I’ve called around to other places to see if I can get it cheaper. Hasn’t happened. They quoted me $220 for my mass air sensor and I shopped 6 other places and the closest I got was $330. These guys are amazing.

Great exhaust system with excellent build quality and an easy install. The sound is deep and aggressive when you get on it, but smooth and quiet at cruising speeds with no drone. Throttle response feels better and it really improves the driving experience. Highly recommend.

Went in for an emergency oil change on my VW Jetta 2014. Pros and cons - nice people and happy to show you the issues. - helped me quick - paid for full synthetic for my 1.8 turbo. After I paid, I was told it was a synthetic blend. Everything I read says it should be full synthetic for turbo heat and they do not recommend a synthetic blend or other. - was told I should buy basic oil for it since it has a leak. Glad I didn’t buy any. - also they opened the door and it bumped into the lift and out a small dent on the door. I watched it happen and was gong to warn them but didn’t want to be rude. - so I’m irritated now. Poor information given and a dent, I asked for full synthetic and got a bled. Really nice people but won’t be going there ever again.

We have been going to Rainbow Muffler for many years for all of work vans and personal car repairs. They are always honest about the repairs that are needed and not trying to sell you on unnecessary repairs. It’s great when you know the staff and how accommodating they have been.

I’m not originally from the area and needed some exhaust work done on my 2015 Lincoln MKS. Rainbow mufflers was recommended to me and Rob and his crew did not disappoint. I was a walk in looking for an estimate. Once quoted a price, I had the work done within 45 minutes. They performed only the work needed for the car at a very reasonable cost, and the service was fantastic! I would recommend Rob‘s team to anybody who’s looking for quality work at a reasonable price!

Been my go to since I bought my truck in 04. Had an appt from a week ago at different location. Just prior to arrival they tell me the bay for the lift for my truck was inaccessible. Called the St Pete store and they took me right in. The entire crew were very accommodating and friendly. My truck sounds incredible with my new Flowmasters. Thank you guys!

I stopped on the recommendation of someone I trust. They took my car and put a new muffler on it and did a great job. Pleasant techs and answered my questions about additional services. I’m new to the area so it’s always a gamble with who you do business with. Rainbow has earned mine.

Fantastic work on my exhaust. They installed a 2.5" pipe from the resonator back, supertoy muffler and chrome tip. Sounds amazing, rock solid welded, only took 1 hour. And they had to deal with my underbody LED wires in the way, the lights still work perfectly, and they remounted the wires better than me for no extra cost. For sound quality they recommended against resonator removal which I leaned toward removing initially, they said I can always come back since a resonator delete wouldn't affect the price today or later. They prioritized my sound quality over a higher-paid job, which is very respectable. The price was also reasonable, right on the bullseye for average quotes online. Use Rainbow!
