Yes. Here's what we do. Plating. Anodizing. Cerakote. Chrome. Polishing. And in doing any of those things, we can rebuild any part so that it's plug and play. From black phosphate studs in polished front hubs with new bearings and a grey phosphate bearing cap to polished rear trailing arms with new bearings... we take it apart, we can put it all back together instead of just sending you restored parts. It's really what the customer wants. But yes, in terms of plating, we get orders from a few clamps to entire car's hardware set.

We have also rebuilt a few transmissions and put in Guard LSDs as well as just tumbling the cases but I try to stay away from 915 rebuilds these days.

The challenge is we have 3 standalone companies under one roof: Anodizing door frames and other pieces, plating and Cerakote. We've been getting enough Ferrari plating and BMW anodizing and this and that, that I feel like we need to branch out to get more makes coming in. But I want to grow on our strength within the Porsche community first. All of our new business is word of mouth and FB and IG posts. Advertising in Hagerty's magazine will be as soon as August 2021. Honestly, I had planned on hitting every Porsche event I could this year and that would have netted us at least $100K of new business I think. Hershey alone is typically $20K+.
