SERVICES WE OFFER

Servicing
All cars need regular servicing and maintenance to ensure that they stay in the best condition and to ensure optimum safety.
Our workshop can cater for performance and classic cars of any age, and we approach each car with the same care. All servicing is carried out using only genuine manufactured parts and approved oils. PIE is also happy to supply service kits to those wishing to undertake their own work.
As part of our fixed-price servicing we carry out preventative maintenance to save potential big bills for the customer in the future.
No two cars are ever the same, and therefore it is prudent of us to get to know every car we see. Often, older cars have had a variety of work done before we get to see the car; therefore, it is best for us to start from scratch, work our way methodically around the car and see if anything stands out as needing immediate attention.
Once we have seen your car, we start to create a history file for it on our computerised system - this allows us to keep a record of work we have carried out on the car and make notes and advisories of potential problems or work needing to be carried out in the near future. These items will be listed on the job invoice, so that the customer has their own copy for their records.

Bodywork
We work closely with a skilled painter who owns his own bodyshop situated on the same site as PIE. Carrying out bodywork can potentially be a can of worms.
It can also be very difficult to quote accurately, because until work is underway it isn't always possible to see previous repairs and any other damage that may be in need of extra work (such as rust). Therefore, it is always best to build in a contingency.

Interior
Interior trim repairs or complete restoration can be expensive. We are able to offer interior refurbishment from minor repairs to complete re-trimming, including carpets.
We can also just supply and fit, depending on the customer's wishes - we work very closely with some of the best trimmers and suppliers in the UK to offer a direct replacement to factory finish, or changes that meet your personal needs and budget.

Wheel Refurbishment and Tyre Replacement
Wheels have a bit of a hard time, really. They have to withstand being bumped into kerbs and driving along salty roads, among other indignities.
Over time they can look tired, with the rim of the wheel potentially being kerbed, or road salt eating into the alloy metal under the paint, causing bubbling or peeling lacquer.
These things can really detract from the exterior look of the car; however, it doesn't necessarily have to be as costly a process as replacing the wheels to get your car looking new again.
Here at PIE we offer a wheel refurbishment service which involves a six-stage process:
Remove wheels from the vehicle
Remove tyres from the wheels
Dip the wheels in a strong acid which strips grime and paint off the wheel, taking it back to bare metal
Repair the rim where it’s been badly kerbed, welding any cracks and possibly having to heat and reshape the wheel if buckled (at extra cost)
Powder-coating the wheels in the customer's desired colour
Refitting tyres to wheels, balancing wheels and refitting to the car
There are sometimes extra processes that the wheels have to go through: for example, if your wheels have an anodized finish. It is very costly to redo the anodizing, but we can offer this service. We also offer the process of diamond-cutting the face or barrel of the wheel to get a shiny, polished finish.

Engine Rebuilding
All cars need regular servicing and maintenance but occasionally and only when absolutely necessary there may come a time when engines requires a rebuild.
Here at PIE we undertake all mechanical work from refreshing engine components to full engine rebuilds in our dedicated engine workshop.

Remapping and Performance Tuning
Remapping is not just about maximizing power or fuel economy - it's about delivering the right engine performance to improve your driving experience.
Remapping your car can dramatically improve overtaking safety, acceleration, reliability and fuel economy, as well as saving you hundreds of pounds in repair bills and potentially pre-empting any need to buy a new vehicle.
PIE Performance is proud to be working in tandem with GCAP Performance, based in London. GCAP offer full bespoke tuning packages ranging from basic bolt on parts, to custom performance parts made exclusively for the company in house and by some of the worlds biggest tuning manufacturers, and are fully qualified to remap your car.
In addition to remapping, we are able to greatly enhance your car's performance across the board using many high-tech options including Quantum Tuning, Milltek Sport Performance exhaust systems, Bilstein Performance suspension components, Powerflex polyurethane bushes, and IPD (Innovative Pro Design) Plenums induction technology.

Restoration
We offer different levels of restoration depending on the customer's requirements, from sympathetic recommissioning to complete rebuilds.
We appreciate that mechanical work and bodywork is costly, so work closely with the customer tailoring a package to suit the finished condition of any restoration project.
We can also work out a flexible payment scheme to lighten the load.

Gearbox Rebuilds
In addition to our engine rebuilding services, we can also breathe new life into your tired gearbox.
There's no need to feel like you’re stirring porridge while trying to find 3rd gear; we can fully rebuild all gearboxes at a very competitive price.
As with everything else that we undertake we always use new original parts, replacing any defective items with factory specification unless the customer requests specific uprated parts.
