Default DP Motorwerks - new shop in Virginia Beach

DP Motorwerks went full swing in September (it used to be a side business), and we're getting the website up now: http://dpmotorwerks.com

Dave Pallister is the owner and a good friend of mine. I'm helping him out with his Internet efforts and going into the powder coating business with him soon (just waiting on the oven). Can't comment on powder coating prices at this time.

Dave works mostly on European cars and track cars, but can do just about anything on any car - he used to do some of the work on my S2000. He also races Spec E30 class and used to run a 944 for many years. He also pit crews for some of the other Euro shops in town.

Have you ever heard of EuroSport, Atlantic Autowerk, or many of the other ones? There are actually quite a few, and the cool thing is that they're all friends

Thanks though

I'm not going to get into pricing -that's Dave's department. You can email or call him from the web site: http://dpmotorwerks.com/Contact.htm

Dave used to do the alignments for my S2000 - probably one of the best alignments I ever had done. Plus he is really good guy, wont hesitate to break things down & explain them to you if need be.

I might be giving you guys a call about some Powdercoating work on my stock wheels down the road!

Hey I remember helping in detailing this car when it was just bought I think:
http://dpmotorwerks.com/DanJetta.htm

If Dave was one of the mechanics that used to work at CF Toyota, he's a good guy. I remember him helping me out get some stubborn screws out of my foglights I got from Jay here. Great guy

btw Poindexter: This is mike, I was a former detailer for Lee P. at CF (w/the slow white 3000gt) p.s. ur car's looking great
