When Russ opened up Automotive Effects, his goal was simple, be honest, provide the customer with substantial performance gains (that they could feel), help customers individualize they're vehicles, and create a personable atmosphere.

Over the years he has worked on celebrity's vehicles along with magazines such as Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords, 5.0 Mustang, SuperFord, RacePages as well as TV.

Working closely with numerous magazines, as well as some of the Fastest Pro 5.0 Drivers, Automotive Effects has always managed to stay in tune with the latest techniques & parts available to the performance automotive industry.

At Automotive Effects, the owner is actually the person performing the work on each and every vehicle. That, along with our history, is what helps separate us from all of the other shops out there!
