looks clean nice work hooking your little sis up
X5 for my Little Sisters 21st Bday
So not long ago my little sis had her 21st bday. She already had her 2009 X5 4.8 and I had done some minor work for her when she first got the car.. Tinted tails and markers, and her photography logo on the rear window.
So when she turned 21 back in June I had to step it up a bit more.
I had another shop black out her badges and grills, as well as PC her wheels matte black to stealth out the car. - Well needless to say that the quality of the work didn't last.
A few weeks later I ran into an old friend and coworker Jesse who owns and runs Coastline Motoring in Woodland Hills Ca. Jesse and I used to work together at the same shop when it was called Pacific Coast Motoring, since then ownership has changed and the name has too a few times. Jesse is not an owner and the only guy still remaining there. So I stopped by to check out the new shop and catch up.
I must say, I wish I had worked there when I was younger instead of PCM.. the shop was super clean and nice, and Jesse's staff there is top notch. They know their stuff and are straight forward. Jesse was even able to get the same installers who built my Sema H2 back in the day, and the quality and detail was insane.
So while I was there my sister stopped by as we were going to lunch and I had Jesse take a look at the previous work done by another local socal shop (to remain unnamed).
It was disgusting. The PC was not even and was peeling, and the grills looked like they had been rattle caned.
Jesse took her car to the back and in 10 minutes pulled all her grills off, badges, taillights, exhaust tips, wheels and put on a loaner set of wheels and tails and sent us on our way.
The next morning Jesse gave me a buzz and told me to bring the car by. Wheels had been blasted and re-PC'd, tails and markers resprayed, grills blasted and redone properly too! He also did her BMW logos Black and white instead of the blue! Overnight he pulled this together for my little sister and really made her happy.
He also had a set of custom car mats made for her with her logo and website on them (1 week), as well as tinted the whole car there on the spot. Only there for an hour for them to reinstall everything and
I have to say if anyone is in Calabasas, Woodland Hills, or the valley you must go and check out Coastline. They are legit and top notch!!
Here are some shots of her car. Ill get some more of the mats and more.
Let me know what you guys think
