Curtis, I'll send you a PM once I get to 5 posts.

In the meantime, I'm in the UP, but come to Grand Rapids for the Holidays...
Can you PM me?

Another well deserved bump to this thread and for Curtis.

He saved my butt in major way when my car was dead on the side of the road. He got me up and running the same day when I would have been without the car for over a week had I gone through the dealership.

He also saved me literally thousands of dollars yet again on repair costs.

Can't recommend this guy highly enough.

Curtis deserves another bump here for sure. He does way more that just walnut blasting. I picked up my '09 Wagon just a few months ago and he has gone deep down the rabbit hole of preventative maintenance and troubleshooting. And I of course got it blasted too.

10/10 I recommend.

Dude is legit and he's saved me a ton of cash too.

Just had a walnut blast done and a valve cover replaced on my X5 (n55)

totally can tell the engine run smoother and pulls harder.

1) Curt was responsive with questions
2) he would proactively tell me what was up i did not have to ask what was going on.. he would txt me pics where he was at with work.
3) pretty mellow.

I am glad he is in my area. recommend and will see in the future for more work.

Curt did quite the update to my 135i. Turned into a bigger project than expected but she should be good for another decade.
  • 17t turbochargers
  • Oil filter housing gasket
  • Valve cover gasket
  • Oil pan gasket
  • Rear main seal
  • 335is clutch upgrade
  • Coolant pump
  • Trans fluid
  • Diff fluid
  • Turbo inlets
  • Serpentine belt
  • Walnut blast
  • Motor mounts
  • Trans mounts

Curt is always very quick to respond and open to answering questions. Thanks man.

+1 for Curtis being one of the best guys I know. Not only has he always been the go-to for walnut blasting on my past E90 and current E82, he’s saved my wallet so many times on stuff I won’t do on jack stands in the garage. He just got done throwing some new rod bearings in my 100k-mile N55
