New to Richmond area, need some suggestions...
So im moving into my sisters house on grace street and she happens to have a 3 car garage but, the garages are so small that my car will hardly fit and id rather just have a big open spot to park. Does anyone know any local places i can call to do this? basically just to tear down the roof of the garage and the barriers that divide the 3 garage areas. Is anyone in the area involved in this kind of business that could help me out?
Also the roads here are horrible. Im riding in eibachs and kyb struts and i cant stand it! Im about to put my stock suspension back b/c its that bad for me!
thanks
