Yes it does. It's a quality shop too, but I think part of the reason it's less expensive is that they don't gear their marketing towards automotive, they get most of their buisness from local industry. That said I've seen some wheels they have done and they are top quality.

I never got it done, went with the volks instead.

shaving door handles is tough, and IMO risky in the location, they ussually arent at the edge, so when you remove them and patch it, they dont have a structural purpose, as ours would.

also they put solenoids in and you have a remote to open your door, atleast thats one way Ive heard; there may be other ways.

the solenoids have been known to break... and if your bettery were to die... well I donno whatd happen there, you really have zero way to enter the car, no manual opening of the car including trunk, hood, ect. I think youd be screwed.

My wheels are photoshopped stocks. I blackened them to get the idea how it'll looks.

I couldn't find any shops for $200. And even those more
expansive are out of state. I can't find anything in Michigan.

Please keep us informed on your progress. How long will it take? Can I ship wheels by mail to them if they do good job on yours?
