This was my first time searching for an Exhaust/Muffler shop in the local Fayetteville area through Google & Yelp. I came across a few shops by doing reviews and calls. The first two shops were rude over the phone, but I was able to get a quick response when calling over Barry's on a Monday morning.Barry was extremely helpful when he installed my DINAN Axle-back freeflow exhaust for my BMW. Upon arrival, I walked into the front office and explained what I wanted done which was to fit and weld my exhaust as it was previously held together by a metal coupler. I wanted to ensure I did not have any exhaust leaks so I went in for the weld.From initial phone call, to visiting the shop, and having Barry work on my BMW took no longer than an hour and some change. He immediately started working on my car after we discussed what I wanted, the placement/fitment, and the price for the job. My BMW exhaust pipes are a little more complex with being at an angle versus most traditional exhaust having a somewhat straight angle for their pipes.Barry made sure the material of the pipe that was going to be welded on had a perfect fitment by rolling it to the actual inlet size. During the job, he checked in with me in-person to make sure the placement and fitment of my exhaust tips were to my liking. I really appreciated that as this was a very friendly customer experience as some shops wont tell you or ask you for your opinion/advice on how you want things done.Overall, I cannot speak for past or previous experience with some customers in the past. But I can say the work by Barry was meticulous and professional and at a very good price point for the quality of work. I was a very satisfied customer with my newly fitted DINAN Axle-back free flow exhaust. I even came back the same week after I let my exhaust tone break in to have him do a little more work on my mid-pipes.If you're looking for solid shop to work on your exhaust/muffler then I would definitely recommend Barry himself. I've had no issues both times I visited him and he quoted me fairly on the work and time put in the jobs he did.

Barry did an outstanding job doing a full exhaust on my 2022 rebel, very happy with how clean it looks and how good it sounds at a reasonable price ..very professional, no sketchy business, he will communicate every step of the process and show you in detail what was done afterwards ...no doubt would definitely recommend

Since I moved to Fayetteville in 2020, this is my one and only go to mechanic. They are VERY reasonably priced and ensure a job well done. I have never had an issue with service and I have always been confident in their knowledge and performance. I have witnessed them work on a wide variety of makes, models, years and vehicular conditions. They also are very honest and wont charge you for bs like most mechanics do and dealerships do They only take cash. If you are someone who likes to support veterans, then go here because the owner is a veteran.

Place is terrible. Charles had my car for 2yrs. He gives an excuse every week why he hasn t finished my car. He even acted like he was in a bad car accident to avoid me. He broke my window, lost my key, etc. Gave $500 to start the car and here we are years later and nothing fixed. RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN FROM THIS PLACR. They will not pick up your calls, barely text back, and LIE LIE LIE !!! This place is horrible. And I m going to leave a comment no matter how many times you delete it!! I ll do this everyday

While there may be upsides to this place, I have not found any that make their business practices worth it. They directly lied to me. I usually really like local shops like this, but this place gives other folksy shops a bad name. Dealing with them has been a huge headache. You might have better luck, but I won't be risking it any more.The mechanic kept giving me false information about when the vehicle would be ready. Further, they said that they could easily take on a job which was actually far, far above their expertise. Rather than being upfront about their limitations, he lied to me. They kept my truck for 3 months (the initial expectation was no more than a week) with no expectation of having the skills to fix it in any reasonable professional time-frame. Along the way, they charged ever more for repairs I did not initially ask for. I feel that they aggressively talked me into repairs I did not want or need. Totaling over $1500.00 in labor and parts I was told the the vehicle was completed and available for pickup. Unfortunately, this was not the case. When started, the vehicle was overheating, the timing was off, and required a jump each time you wanted to start the truck because the ignition box was old and worn out. All things you would expect to be checked prior to being told your vehicle was ready and having paid $1500.00 in cash.I don't trust this place. Hopefully they improve their business practices. I'm not sure that they're necessarily bad people, I just think that they have serious communication problems and issues with being upfront. In my experience, problems tend to get bigger there, not smaller.

10/10 highly recommend. I showed up a bit late and these guys still pulled strings to help with fitting a mid pipe to my headers. Will definitely be going back for other upgrades when the time comes

Was given a price for an engine rebuild and a time frame of a week. I figured just before Christmas that was not going to happen so I was not upset when it went to week 2. This was supposed to include dual exhaust with headers as well. I was given a price of $700 for the dual exhaust. Well I was told it would be ready middle of the third week, nope then the middle of the fourth week, nope it was Thursday of the fifth week (4 weeks late) and when I get to the shop he tells me 30 minutes. Well an hour later my truck rolls out. I look and no headers but a dual exhaust out the back. He informed me that he could not do dual exhaust for 700 it would be another 3 to 4 hundred because of catalitic converter. He dropped the price by $150 from $700. exhaust pipes and mufflers for $450 are you kidding. Truck run goods but just be warned that any estimate on time is Bull Crap. Oh yea no warranty, that was my bad for not asking. I would have taken it somewhere else for that alone.

Mr. Barry and sons have been working on my '63 Chevy Impala throughout the past year. Their work quality is exemplary, prices at Barry's Performance are reasonable, and I can always return to address any minor issues (if applicable) and they tend to go the extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction.

So far I've yet to have any problems with Barrys. They've always fixed my cars in a timely fashion and I've never had any problems with the work they have done. They are right across the street from me so it's very convienent for me. Mr. Barry is great. I locked myself out of my truck a few months back and couldn't lock up my shop since the keys were in the truck, Barrys was closed but he came over anyway and helped me get in my truck. Charles is awesome, he seems to always know what's going on with my cars and fixes it pretty fast. Great place.

First visit was great. Second one Worst ever. Skip in my truck he said was the converters. I paid for them and he installed. (Never got the old ones back ) the truck still had a skip he said was plugs and wires that I had already replaced a month before. Truck still has skip. Went to pick my truck up and someone stole it from there shop and totaled My truck out.. Worst nightmare ever.....

Barry's is awesome! I was referred here from another repair shop. My Jeep was running so rough that they thought it needed a tune up or, worse yet, a new carburetor. Since the mechanic was less than 100% sure he sent me to Barry's. Charles greeted me when I pulled up. He opened the hood and within minutes determined the air-to-fuel ratio was off and corrected it. Wow! This was the third auto shop I had been to for this problem. Thanks Charles and Barry for your expertise and fair prices!

I left feeling very confident in my vehicle and well informed!After the "Check Engine" light appeared on my trailblazer, I had called several establishments. Barry's was referred to me by Ed's tires. A diagnostic costs $35, but is waived if the repairs exceed the $35 charge. There are shops that will charge a ridiculous amount for the diagnostic alone in addition to repairs and parts, etc. The mechanic, Chris, who worked on my vehicle also took the time to explain the code and it's function. Mine was an EVAP code that basically was triggered by running the engine while the gas cap was loose. Simple enough. Then he showed me how he ensured that everything was functioning correctly with the Emissions from the fuel by the stability of the pressure readings and the release process. I actually got to see for myself! This all took minutes. Then we address another issue that I had not originally come to shop, but figured that I'd have it looked at. Chris took his time to find out what was wrong with my horn (Which as quoted from other shops is a VERY EXPENSIVE repair). Chris discovered and fixed what was wrong with my horn all the while explaining what he was doing and why he was doing it and only charged me a small fraction of what it would have cost me at another shop.For the most part, Chris was very knowledgeable of his Craft and yet humble, not to mention the Integrity I witnessed from him. He would look up or ask questions in resolution of something he was unsure of or just didn't know. It was refreshing to me because he never left me uninformed.As a cherry on top of a well iced cake, he even fixed a very minor cosmetic issue at no cost to me. I will go back for my automotive needs and I would encourage others to check out Barry's Performance as well!

This place didnt nothing to "fix" my car but make things worse than before & take my money. They held my car on their property for more than 2 months & took 4 months to "fix" my car. Made me lose my job & also gave excuses for everytime they were unable to fix or get to work on my car. Would lie saying they were working on my car & my car would be far from the shop parked in another area. So to "fix" the problem they put electric tape over my check engine light so I would be unable to see it. I had to take them to court & lost about thousand dollars down the drain for a job they were unable to do. Learn from my mistake from taking my car to this place & just look else were.

Barry knows his cars and will not scam you like others. I only wish the location was bigger and had more parking. Ask him about his chrome plating (various colors) business: beautiful addition to your vehicle or whatever you want "chromed."

I wouldn't let berries performance work on my tricycle. I went in with a water leak come out with a water leak somewhere else and a oil leak and he charged me for oil change and a water pump that I didn't even need. Very unprofessional. I give him two thumbs down and no stars
