I'm looking for an Off Road Shop in Surin Province which I was told is named "SP Off Road". Couldn't find anything via internet and asking around in some car workshops didn't help either. Some people said that they know about this shop, but no one could tell me where it is. The shop is specialized in 4x4 tuning etc. Maybe some TV members living in Surin or enjoying off road sports know this shop and can advice me with directions how to find this shop.

Any help is appreciated

This might be a long shot but the good audio shop Inbetween the Govt hospital and Big C is called SP Sounds,
They might be worth talking to (in Thai)

Just an update. Didn't find the shop I was looking for, so I took the hassle of going to Bangkok. There I went to VVP 4x4 who did a wonderful job for me. They even recommended a paint shop which did an excellent job as well. What I want to share on this forum is the after match with registration, ie changing the car's blue book. A change of colour have to be registered instantly. On my way back from Bangkok police stopped me and charged 200 Bhat for the wrong colour in the car's blue book, even I showed them the bill of the paint shop which I was told that it gives me 14 days to register the colour. The following day I went to the office where I can register the new colour, but was told that I have not only changed the colour but also modified the car. Now it comes to the funny point. If you change the colour of your car and get it registered instantly, nobody cares what you change on your car later, but if you change colour and the car in one attempt, then you need to register both, colour and modifications. The registration office is not able to check whether
the modifications which had been made are according to safety and required strength, so I had to go to a technical university and get an independent certificate of an mechanical engineer. He checked all equipment, which from I had all the documents of the manufacturer including the technical details, and he even verified that my self made luggage tray is according to any requirements. With this certificate in my hands I went back to the registration office and got everything registered. It was quite a good feeling when police stopped me again and I was able to present the correct paper work. Point of this story is to register the colour first and modify the car later, much less hassle

In your original post did you search the internet in English or Thai.
When I am trying to find something I get my wife to search in Thai language as there are so many more small shops that only use Thai and therefore don't show up when searching in English lettering.
