Performance parts

Hi everyone,
I have been thinking a lot lately and want to build more performance parts for Mercedes. I'm located in North Palm in Fl. Basically we want to start building headers, exhaust, intake systems and carbon parts and machined parts. I have a background in tig welding and machining and carbon work. At out shop we have two of the best carbon guys in America working for us. One helped design and build mystic race boats (JBS, MISS GEICO, Aquamania) and the other guy did all the carbon work for Mosler super cars. Here is the dilemma. We don't have every amg model out there so we need cars to build parts from. What we are offering is for certain models, you let us use the car to mock parts from and the first parts will be yours for cost of materials and no labor charge. I will add some pics of our work and if anyone is interested please pm me. I hope to eventually become a vendor for this site. We don't mind working on other makes also.
Thanks everyone in advance!
Kevin



















Thats just a teaser.

I would think the best plan of attack would be to hit the parts that are shared across multiple models, such as any component a 203 and 209 would share or any thing shared among all of the 55K cars. I think it would be cool to see a new vendor bringing a new angle since the market on these cars offers very slim pickings. Best of luck to you. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
