So with the changing times and economy B.S. I am changing my business focus. Previously directed at mostly wholesale dealer work, I am switching to primarily retail customers. Our site is changed and updated, our logo tweaked, and our determination is stronger than ever. If any of you have been here before, we are a group of professional nitwits that blend humor and grassroots customer service in all that we do. We are basically a car spa that performs a ton of different services. Check out the site... www.apexrestoration.net
The second part of this message is that we are going to start hosting group/club meetings at the shop once a month. Each meeting will have a theme and BBQ. We will go over various car care tips and have an informative clinic. Maybe a quick video compilation or movie as well. I am really looking forward to spreading our knowledge and services to all of you and your referrals. I will have an across the board 15% discount for all club members that is effective immediately. Our monthly specials are updated, well monthly, and reflect a specific service that we offer. Sometimes those offers are larger than 15% on a specific service, so you may be able to save more.
It won't hurt my feelings if anyone was to copy and paste this message on various boards across this crazy planet of ours! Looking forward to seeing you all in the near future! John 503-646-2739, or cartapex@yahoo.com

I have never heard of you, but if jenkins says +1, so do I! I really <3 customer service!

I hope jenkins never jumps off a bridge...

Thanks J. We've been at this location since 03. Doesn't surprise me that you haven't heard of us...wholesale only and all! We have a large retail following and advertise by proven results and word of mouth. Looking forward to good times. John

Cool site, but your logo is a bit pixelized, probably due to the fact that when you tweaked it, it was a raster image.

I probably only noticed it because I do that stuff for a living, just pointing it out for you to fix.

cartapex

I'm not out Boss! I'll get another as soon as I can, just in a 3rd G with LS-7!
It's weird how the logo looks pixed on my shop monitor, but not on my home one. Dunno. Its a GIF file..need to adjust it. Tnx

I've seen his work in person.

It is ridiculously good.

I'm planning on taking my car down there to have it completely detailed and clear bra installed.

Once I'm done paying for the motor I blew (you know of what I speak)...

would you be interested in a community group buy?

lol ok good to hear your gona get an fd john, ls7's are nice, to much low end for the fd i think, should go with a turbo ls2 or ls3, good top end, not as much down low but still enough to have fun

cartapex

We'll see on the LS version. Prolly the most available and or best deal I can find!

GTO drivetrain - LS1

When is the first get together?

pdxhak

Good luck with the new direction! I'm still bummed that we did not get it worked out to have my Shine au-to bahn kit painted for my 8.

cartapex

Me too! I'm not sure what happened there....the shop has matured deeply in its staffing talent and follow through. How did it turn out? My painter is amazingly good. JP is one of a kind....even though he drives an Acura!

NinjaGUYdan

I am excited about this for sure. Now you know you want to sponsor me with my superior driving talents (crickets.......). No but really, I need a full vinyl wrap homey!! How much?

pdxhak

I ended up selling the kit to someone in Washington. I will be sure to look you up when I get my new bumper though

cartapex

Awesome...sounds good. Hope everyone had a great Hallows!

pdxhak

Any chance you paint wheels?

cartapex

Ahh but of course we do! Thanks for asking. We could do them in what ever color/shade you like. What do you have? By the way...the remodel is almost done, less tape/mud and paint, so the first meeting at Apex is right around the corner!!!

pdxhak

They are Rays G-games 99b. These are my only wheels so any idea how long it would take? The wife is going to wonder why my car is on jacks

I will send you a PM with what I'm looking for and a quote

on that topic, any idea where/how to do black chrome? looks niice. dunno if its something you could do, or if it requires facilities.

afgmoto1978

True black chrome (DPLF coating) requires proper facilities.

cartapex

Well said Brain.....black chrome must be facilitated and is expensive. Not to mention it only looks good clean with no brake dust! PDX, I have a set of OZ wheels with Advan 032R that you could borrow while we painted ur wheels. Those are nice looking...What shade/color are you thinking? Are you going to leave the polished lip? (recommended) We have a set of Porsche wheels that we are doing now that are similar. Also have an A8 tomorrow getting curb repair if you want to stop by and see some action!
