New old guy from Michigan

You gotz a link to your shop Wrench Guy?

No links we are just too small to setup something like that. I think we are gonna set up a Facebook or something for it.

We are not a big establishment but have the same priorities as the DIYers that are known on forums.

You could say we are a small trio that is aiming for the scene. We are scraping by to keep things alive but want to get some recognition for our efforts. We are doing half way decent for what we started with. The Bay gets bigger as the ideas flow.

We want to feed the SPL guys what they need but its a shop and most things are "typical" to what you would see in chains around the state. My forum cruising has given me insight on equipment from our distributors that are mainstream but budget friendly items that deliver.

We soon hope to get IA, Sundown, and a couple others on our shelves. I'm just a friend of the owners and I share my ideas. Its just hard to convince them to get these brands because I can't get enough people with said product to come around here and show them and the locals the setups.

I'm forking out my own money just to get a full IA build in my Tahoe just to show my enthusiasm towards it all. I'd really like to see a team come out of it which is why I started the the Northern Michigan thread to group everyone together.

We just want to be the pit stop before guys go to the web for stuff. Thats the toughest part of the Local shop of course. There are just things we can't offer and we have to deal with that.

well im down on the group buy if you guys are //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

We would have to vote for which company to present the idea to.

I myself have no problem presenting the idea.

Let me help you guys relate to us a little bit.

Take yourself and 2 friends for example. Together you guys can window tint, fiberglass, design and build enclosures. Get what money you can to start up.

Go rent a showroom with an install bay attached to it. Now get your electronics distributors and supplies to detail cars.

That is how it all started. We are small in a small town but we want to have impressive installs make it out of here. We want you to drive 2 plus hours just to have us do it.

We have a TL by chance. We do not stock a whole lot either. It would just be nice if guys came to get the help they need and share ideas to make them and their friends come back. It evolves from there.

If you seriously need help with something I will help you personally. Just give me a heads up and I get the day that is available. I've worked out in the cold and shit before so I know what its like.
