Anybody live near Brentwood and see if SignPro will do a package deal with a couple of people?

Everybody seems to want their Shifter Surround dipped - they've been doing it for a long time and the samples they have on their site kicks ***.

I went to Brentwood earlier today to check out Greg@FX Hydrographics (used to be a part of Sign-Pro Brentwood). He does hydro-dipping (only one in the area and have been doing it for a long time).

Wanted to get my Shifter Surround and Radio Panel Surround HYDRO-DIPPED FAUX Carbon Fiber (then clear coated) and he gave me a good deal (paint scratches easily) - 100$ for both. Found out he's closing shop in two months though - sucks to see good mom and pop shops go out of business. I decided to throw some business his way and I bought

4 STI Shifter Surrounds (GR-STI)
1 STI Shifter Surround (GH-WRX)
5 JDM Double-DIN Stereo Bezels (For GR, and GH)

And will get them Hydro-Dipped before he closes up shop.. If you guys want anything Hydro-Dipped, let me know and I'll drop it off along with my order. I think his business placement is just wrong (Brentwood), if he opened up shop in Pleasanton/Tri-Valley instead (near the dealerships) and he'd be making a killing (just like the other shops in the area)..

Man you would think they would be doing so much business they wouldn't want to close. Sucks to hear that they are closing.

It's probably cheaper to get it painted gloss black and cleared (Piano black?) at a local body shop..

He's out in the boonies, if he was in the Tri-Valley (close by the dealerships), he'd be making a killing. At least his business would complement the other shops in the area - RJ's Paint and Body, OmegaWorks, Kar Tunz and etc. Additionally, I think he focused on Hydro-Dipping guns - instead of cars (looks like hunting is his passion)..

Yep. (Oddly enough I was at all 3 places you listed today.)


If anyone ever wants to go full-on bling and you're on the Peninsula I forgot to mention MA Carbon's over in Belmont off of Old County.
