Give Brian Kono a call, tell him Kurt referred you. (number on website)
Shop is located in San Pedro area. I'm not sure about the storage but he can handle the powdercoating. Very nice / knowledgeable guy.

Powder Coating @ RSS / Stuttgart Performance

Hi

Wanted to chime in, we would be happy to powder coat for you, as we do it all in house and can accomodate your car storage in the interim. Call me for a quote.

+1 on Mike or Greg at RSS - Really nice guys over there and go the extra mile. They know what customer service means. Support a 6speed sponsor.

I'd be wary of FastForward, if there is any problem with the work you may have a hard time dealing with them- As we've seen on this board many times the owner is quite rude and volatile.


Jenn- what powdercoating work have you had done to your car over at FF / what kind of pcar do you have?

Jenn,

Don't be scared of people like p0rsche3, there will be flakes on every forum. Take with with a grain of salt and move on.

Hi Kurt, we don't have anything against u personally here. As for Jenn and the questions u asked her,
1) Im her bf (her boyfriend)
2) I drive and work on Pcars
3) Eli has sold me parts and refinished my wheels before I ever became his tech.
4) My Boss hired Jenn to answer phones and interact & become familiar with Porsche owners since we have alot of Porsche meets we setup that she'd be attending with me and sure she did that at first but she's began to enjoy all the fun and quarky charactors on 6speed so it isn't an obligation for her to surf the forums between checking her myspace and searching for YouTube videos for 2 girls 1 cup reaction videos and top gear... Or whatever women search for these days ;-)

5) I didn't create her account to sneak her into the forum like a snake to promote us, I even made her avatar with the companies name in it and in her sig too. Were are actually talking today about becoming site sponsers since we realize that now more often than not we end up posting more about service than answering questions now and we should pay our dues now on the site to be fair to the other sponsers and we get rightfully notified by our admins about this now adays which we completely agree with, period.

I guess we all got off on the wrong foot cause the thread about exhausts. It's just times are hard for everyone these days and since were a new shop and business is slow this time of year I felt like you were in someway hurting my already horrible financial situation with your post about my issue with the exhaust thread that it would dimish the chances of getting a single oil change a week which I am lucky to even get because of the resent economical state of the US economy. Again, nothing against you personally, we're all just trying to stay alive and survive in this world.
