You can tell people you own "Tr-State Automotive Concepts" which sounds professional and people can say they are going down to "Tec Automotive" or "tech". the name serves a dual purpose.

MET - MANHATTEN ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGIES
ICE - INNOVATIVE CONCEPT ENGINEERING

those words are kinda long, but you can use the long name for professional purposes, but when people reference your shop in short-hand or speech, it still sounds cool.
Craig is on the money with it, bro I am 1000000% +1 on this

Only problem with that is the confusion it would cause since there is a wheel manufacturer called Renntech - the names are too similar, hard to distinguish who's who.

Make sure you advertise "Scuffed rim? We'll rub it out"

or

"Get a rim job to go with your Hummer?"

or

"Need to new look for your dash? We'll polish your knobs"

Good idea. Advise customers that using good rubber will help protect the rim.


(Apologies for bringing the tone up in my previous post, I should know better )
