OUR STORY

From Shop Floor to Digital Excellence

THICKRIM was founded in 2018 by Kyle Willis, a former automotive shop owner who saw firsthand how many shops were struggling with their digital presence. After selling his successful customization business, Mike assembled a team of digital experts who shared his passion for the automotive industry.

Our mission is simple: help automotive customization shops stand out online and convert more visitors into customers. We understand the unique challenges and opportunities in your industry because we've been there ourselves.

What sets us apart is our deep industry knowledge combined with cutting-edge digital expertise. We don't just build websites - we create digital solutions that showcase your custom builds, generate qualified leads, and help you grow your business.

Today, we're proud to have helped over 50 automotive shops across the country improve their digital presence and increase their revenue. From small local shops to SEMA exhibitors, we tailor our approach to meet the specific needs of each client.
