Torrance Shell Center

I’m a truck dealer the LA TRUCK GUY and I go to Jimmy at Torrance Shell Center for all my customization needs. Great options and prices and 5 star service everytime.

this is the first and best place to start when your going to buy a shell or truck accessory in the south bay. i’m not a review writting type person but once again i find a local dealer who goes above and beyond expectations. jimmy is a very knowledgable and trustworthy man, i had a phone conversation with him and we agreed upon a very good price for my snug top and i got super held up and arrived right at closing time. i really needed to be on the road that night and explained to him my situation, fully expecting i would have to return the following day, he had everything stacked and racked and my shell was at the very back of the yard. he understood my situation and spent 30 mins moving 15 + other shells out of the way, washed my shell, installed and had me on the way, all the time having a smile and professional attitude. it took an hour and a half to get back to locking the gate and going home for jimmy, what a guy.
so to sum it up, i got a smoking hot deal, a awesome shell, and was treated like a real person and then some. i’m going to buy some accessories from him as well, not because of the excellence in service i received but because the price quote jimmy gave me was the best. make this your first place because its the best place for your truck accessories.

Bought an ARE shell here after being quoted a price several hundred below the other dealer’s. It arrived when he said it would with all specified options, I paid the exact price agreed upon, and it was quickly installed when I got there. I’ve had it on my truck for almost a year now in all sorts of weather with no issues.

Jimmy and his guys were great. Couldn’t find a single shell in San Diego that was in stock for my truck, so we had to bite the bullet and drive up to LA. After 3 hours of traffic, we pulled in and they immediately showed us the shell we came for, and started to mount it. I guess they typically dont wire up the third light on used shells, but since I was going to sit in another 3 hours of traffic hell, they hooked the light up for me. I was in and out of there in no more than 30 minutes. The shell looked great, the service was great, not a single complaint.

I went there to get a new style shell for my truck. I’ve been there before when it was called Verns and didn’t expect much. The new ownership is a great improvement. They helped me out with everything and explained my options in detail. I would really recommend this place to anyone looking to get a shell or tonneau cover.

Please take my advice and do not go here!!!
You will be wasting your time and you’ll pay way too much. I drove an hour and a half from my house because the guy said he had a shell that would fit my truck. I got there the shell he thought would fit my truck did not so he tried to sell me a used one for $ 1400, which wasin really bad shape and way overpriced. I continued looking around and found a shell in Ventura that would sell me a brand-​new snug top, top of the line for 1350.00
Watch yourself.

Great selection of new and used shells! Spoke with Jimmy and he knows his inventory well. Was able to buy a color matched used camper for my gold 2001 Tacoma extra cab and get it mounted in 40 minutes.
After tax done and done, I paid half the price of a new shell but $ 300 more… than if I had driven out to Riverside to check out a used, wrong color shell listed on Craigslist, with no installation…
Thanks Jimmy for the great shell and install!
