New Year Metal Finishing

Took my wheels to get powder coated here. I told Rene that I did not have spare wheels for my car and they arranged me to drop my car off for half a day to get my wheels powder coated. Dropped my car off in the morning and lunch time came back to a set of newly powder coated gloss black wheels! Looks new and clean! Just how I wanted them! Rene was really helpful and they gave A+ customer service! Price was great and had my new powder coated gloss black wheels in less than a day! Awesome! A+++

Had 4 sets of tires cromed over the years.
Had 61 and 62 Lincoln continental recromed and all parts were polished to show quality.

Taken some molding to be fixed and polished. Unfortunately, the quality of work was very poor. I told his admin (wife), that I wanted him to fix the items clean up the powder coat spray that had smeared all over the parts He said «this is the best I can do». So I give him a few bucks and took off. Didn’t want to bother with someone that doesn’t take customer service seriously. BEWARE!!!

happy with the color and how it turned out. Rene for the president… or maybe not. He’s more than welcome to show me around in his warehouse. Felt like a little kid in candy shop.

Clemente saved my ass. I totally botched one of our newly powder coated rims on the C63 AMG turning too quickly into a parking lot.Ouch.
I immediately drove to Santa Ana. «Brandon’s going to KILL me!» I exclaimed, falling into the strong, capable arms of Clemente, who quieted my outburst in Spanish.
«Mujer loca,»
Yeah, yeah. I freaked out, Clemente didn’t actually call me crazy. However his crew fixed our rim, I got in minimal trouble with the boyfriend, and the repair was fairly priced. Thank friggin god.
Ya’ll need help with your rims, Clemente is your dude!

Clemente is the man, the immediate area is super sketchy but it’s worth it. They do amazing work and for a great price

Good customer service and everyone that works here is all close family. Honest work and straight to the price which I like.

My girlfriend took my wheels to this place on recommendation from a couple guys over at a shop I visit every so often on Wed 7÷9÷14
Upon dropping the wheels off at beachcity I was told it would be about a day or so to get the lug bores (not hub bore) opened up 1 mm on all four wheels and the lips refinished because one wheel had a fairly mean curb rash and another of the four had a slight ding in it and then i needed the other two cleaned up. So a quick recap; Refinish/​repair lips on all four wheels and drill out the lug bores… nothing too major, right? …cool, i was happy.
I got a message from my girlfriend a few hours later saying that this place could not drill out the lug bores because they were fearing it would be unsafe to drive on afterwards. So i asked my girlfriend where my wheels were so i could go pick them up and take them elsewhere, and no she had no idea.
My girlfriend went to this place where the wheels were at directly and the shop did the work requested. I got the wheels back 7÷11÷14 late at night and dirty with all sorts of metallic dust all over them from the work done (For me that is a bothersome sign, at least clean off the dust, take pride in your work). I was tired so I placed the wheels in my shop on towels so that i could come in next morning and clean them up and then go get tires.
Upon coming in to the shop on 7÷12÷14 and being eager to get the wheels done and on my vehicle… i discovered NEW damage!!! Recap; Lug bores needed to be opened up 1 mm, so this shouldnt go near the edge of the wheel lug bore but there it is; Low and behold there is now paint CHIPS and Edged CUTS on the lug bores.
Also the entire hole has been bored with an oversized drill bit which was not requested nor needed… as detailed below
Wheel 1 has 1 mm x 3 mm long paint chip and drill slipped type of cut on the edge also a SANDING RASH MARK on one of the spokes.
Wheel 2 has 1 very minor, maybe less than 1 mm chip from a lug bore so that isn’t too bad but on one spoke there is paint that seems to have been sanded or cut clean off on a spoke edge…1mm wide by 4 mm long.
Wheel 3 has a 1 mm x 3.5mm long cut around the lug bore as if the drill bit was improperly positioned and then drilled.
Wheel 4 has a slipped drill bit on TWO places on ONE lug bore. BOTH of the cuts are about 1 mm down the lug bore, one cut goes HALFWAY around the bore and one is about 4 mm long. On top of that one spoke on this wheel has a sanding mark on a spoke that is deep enough to go through the clear and INTO the paint and you can tell with a naked eye it is sanding paper or disc that did the damage. Another rash on the same spoke about ¼″ away from that one is a light scuff as if sandpaper was dragged or slipped from the other mark i just mentioned.
However the lips on the wheels look decent, and the lip repair was done well. You cannot tell the lips ever had any damage done to them at all BUT no clearcoat was added so now the lip will corrode after some time OR i have to pay someone else to reclear it which means more money… when i paid to have the wheels refinished.
The wheels were taken back on 7÷14÷14 by my girlfriend since she wanted me to be perfectly happy, god bless her soul.. They agreed to fix the damage and I was happy, they said it would take a day or two to finish and then ready for us to pickup. They also said they did not recommend reclearing the wheel (Even though they would do it for $ 50 per wheel) since if the wheel was damaged in the future it would be harder to fix.
The wheels were picked up on 7÷17÷14 and brought to my work and inspected. The «Fix» performed was a sufficient repair to the cut in the paint on wheel 1. There was sufficient repair to the sanding marks mentioned on other wheels HOWEVER the «repair» performed to the slipped drill bit marks and chewed up lug bores was done via dremel or other rotary device. The way they were cleaned up, it is VERY clear that a small rotary type of device was used to simply scuff away the marks and cut away the damage. The entire lug bore was not addressed either, just the chew marks from their original aiming errors with the drill bit… so now it looks like some kid from around the corner fixed the lug bores with a dremel and sanding bit, and did a crappy job at it.
Ill let you all decide if you wish to go here but i’d save your cash and go elsewhere for a few bucks more and get your wheels actually fixed, how they should be… instead of you paying for something you could do in your own garage for a fraction of the cost.
*NOTE; This review was witheld from posting to give the establishment a chance to right the wrongs, but it is pretty clear… this was a crap job

Very helpful staff, always full of business so sometimes you gotta wait to so they could get to you. The wait is well worth. Best prices in town.

I picked up my chrome yesterday and it is fantastic. I decided to break down grandfathers barber chair. (Belmont 1926) I am glad I did cause by the time I am done putting it back together it will be phenomenal. A beautiful barber chair on another 100 year lease. The owner greeted me with a smile 15 minutes later an estimate I accepted and the work is on its way. 38 pieces total all sizes and every piece returned. I am also having a custom made metal piece done by owners brother… so I can honestly say should you need any metal piece work give this business a try. The ladies in the office great attitude great customer service. To all a sincere thank you.
When done and ready I will post pictures of chair.

Worst quality I’ve ever seen!
I dropped my $ 6000 custom wheels off there for a complete mirror polish of the lips and sandblast the inners. Came back in 2 days to them not being able to find my lips. They were across the street being prepped for chroming, completely stripped of all shine and sanded with rough grit paper. The guy said oh we messed up, come back tomorrow and they will be mirror polished. Came back in the next day to see that they were polished but the scratches from the rough grit paper were noticeable from 10 feet away in the sun. I was very unhappy and told him they ruined my wheels. The guy said ohh our polisher used the wrong process and they will be perfect in 1 day more. So I gave them 1 more day only to see that they were the same as the day before.
Their polishing and powdercoating is the lowest quality I have ever seen. If you value what you are dropping off in any way do yourself a favor and stay away from these people.

HORRIBLE experience at New Years. I recently got four wheels powder coated and they told me 2 – 3 days and it ended up being over a week and going there twice when they said it would be ready and it wasn’t. I finally got them back and the quality was horrible. I had them re powder coat it and they never stripped it a second time after THEY messed up. So paint was too thick and a headache to put the faces back together. STAY AWAY. I will never go back again. Also, you can see a bunch of drip marks on the spokes. Lazy, and horrible quality. Beware.

The place seems disorganized, but so does an anthill until you pay attention. There are multiple buildings, each with specific crew and functions. Occasionally this can lead to imperfect communication between crew and staff, but they all work hard and the quality was exactly what I was hoping for. The guy mounting tires for me found a bubble on one sidewall and pointed it out to me, and marked it when I asked him to. He did NOT try to sell me a tire! He just wanted to know if I cared to have it mounted since I’ll have to replace the tire anyway. Clemete is easy to work with, and gave me a very good price.

Hmm where to start… I brought my Porsche rims to be polished and repainted. They quoted me a great deal and told me they’d be ready in 10 days. On the 10 day I came in they said give them 2 more hours came back still not ready they said come back Monday I called they said by 2 they’d be ready came rims looked like shit so they said they’d redo it and be done by Friday. Friday comes I call the day not ready be done on Monday I gave them until Tuesday called then guess what? Not ready so they say they’d be ready by 3 so I going in and the rims have dust on them and they look like they just put them away and didn’t do anything to them I’M NEVER GOING BACK OR RECOMMENDING ANYONE TO THIS SHITY UNORGANIZED COMPANY it was a waste of my time and money! I wish I had more hands so I can give them four thumbs down!

I was transporting a car down from the san fernando valley on my dully rig, to mission viejo.
When i got hit by another car coming off the off ramp on the 5frwy. Long story short, the collision damaged my back rim, to a point that my tire didnt, wouldnt hold any air. After driving around going from tire shop to tire shop. One tire shop recommended these guys to me, called them right up, got something worked out.
I arrived to their shop, in about 20 mins, after talking to them over the phone.
They started it on it right a way, they told me it was going to take about an hour. So i told the owner that i was going to grab a quick bite to eat, and asked where the nearest restaurant was. He recommended a few spots to eat at, and he even offered to let me barrow one of his delivery vans to drive so that wouldn’t walk.
I forgot to mentioned that they even waited for me after they told me they were closing.
Way to go the extra mile!

This is the 2^nd car we have brought here to powder coat our rims. They do a great job in a timely manner. Quality of work is good. Very happy with the results!!!

I am an international student .I crushed my rim in freeway, it damaged seriously. So many people told me they can not do it. Finally I found New Year on Unilocal,Rene said he can fix it. I left my rim to him for few days (he provided another one for me to drive back), he did good job for my rim. Also provide 6 month warranty. Truthful, professional, helpful cool guy, highly recommend!

Been here a few times for metal plating, rim repair, and metal polishing. Their metal plating is not bad. I had to take it back a few times since it was bubbling, but it was good on the 2^nd time.
I had a bent rim that was copper plated. Clemente stated that he would have to re-​plate the barrel since the repair was going to damage the current finish on it. Charged me extra. I came back a week later to find that it was repaired, but I can tell that he did not have to replate the barrel. Very dishonest in my opinion, but I was in a rush. So I took the wheels and left.
Recently, I brought him an $ 800 custom aluminum intake manifold to polish. Left polishing compound on the part and there was a nick on the edge that Clemente claimed was from the machine. He took it back to «fix» it. I came back a few days later to find that the edge was taken down way too much. This was a show piece. I couldn’t believe it. If I knew he was going to take off that much material for that small of a scratch, I would have never given it back to him. It looked like whoever did the work was trying to blend the edge in by taking off more material. Terrible… What’s worst is that after he «fixed» it, a new nick was left in the exact area. I did not want to have him try again and left with the part. All they could say was sorry.
Their shop has always been busy and it seems that their attention to detail has suffered. Made no attempts to make up their mistake to me. I guess they don’t need my business anymore.

After discovering 2 cracks on one of my delicate 19″ BMW Msport factory wheels, I received this address from my tire guy.
Drove in at 7AM and after a quick chat I pulled the car in the side area, where one of the guys immediately pulled of my wheel, tire, and got to work.
After 35 minutes the wheel was expertly welded, tire back on, inflated, balanced and put back on the car. An awesome job for $ 65.
Highly recommend this place to everyone who has wheel issues, best service ever.

They polished my work emotion xd9 rims, from white. Looks great, only cost me 55 per rim. Also mounted and balanced new tires on for me for free. Great people, great work.
