Walnut blasting?

Is there anyone local to the DC area who can perform a walnut blasting on the intake manifold of my n54? Not looking to go to the dealer and be raped.

Message Adam (username Clem). He's an awesome guy who does work out of his garage, also reasonable pricing.

I know a tech at Rockville BMW that did mine, and he replaces your oil filter reservoir gasket as well. Same price as these other two said above as well. PM me if you want his contact info.

I've done a ton of these and would be happy to help anyone willing to trek out to my shop in Dayton, MD. I use the same machine found at the dealership and it does an amazing job. I'll do it while you wait and you are welcome hang out to watch the whole process. Monday thru Friday is best for me but I can take morning work on the weekends on occasion. PM me for pricing.

Got this done a week or so ago. Luther did a great job with the cleaning and also installation of my Coil Overs.

Car feels better, more responsive, and the lowering topped it off.

Just wanted to say thanks again for being accommodating with the quick turn around I needed.

Luther took care of me last night with great results. I was in and out very quickly, and for an amazing price. Would highly recommend anyone who needs this service to head out his way!
