TW Engineering, automotive fabrication
About us

An Owner-Led Fabrication Workshop

TW Engineering is bench work, done properly. A small West Sussex workshop building bespoke stainless steel exhausts and automotive metalwork for people who care how their car is put together.

The story

Made by One Pair of Hands

TW Engineering is run and worked by Tom. From the first conversation to the finished weld, the car is handled by the same person, so nothing is lost in translation and nobody passes the buck.

The work is bespoke stainless steel exhaust fabrication and automotive metalwork, for road, race and classic cars. Downpipes, X-pipes, silencers and full systems, along with the brackets, mounts and one-off parts a build needs along the way.

It is a simple way of working, and a deliberate one. You get a system designed for your car, welded by hand and built to last, and you always know exactly who built it.

  • T304 stainless steel

  • Hand TIG welded

How we work

The Standards Behind Every Job

Four things that stay the same whatever comes into the workshop.

Direct and Honest

You speak to Tom, the person doing the work, from the first enquiry onwards. If a repair is the better option than a new part, we will say so.

The Right Materials

T304 stainless steel as standard, chosen for corrosion resistance and finish, with the grade matched to the job.

Properly Welded

Every joint is hand-laid TIG and back-purged. Slow, deliberate work that holds up to heat and vibration over time.

Built for the Car

Nothing is adapted from a generic kit. Each system or part is designed around the car in front of us.

How it works

From First Conversation to Finished Work

Every job is owner-led and follows the same careful path, so you always know what is happening and why.

  1. 01

    Discuss the Project

    You tell Tom about the car and what you want from it. Every job starts with a direct conversation, not a form reply from a call centre.

  2. 02

    Design and Measure

    The system or part is designed around your car, measured and planned so the fit and flow are right before any metal is cut.

  3. 03

    Fabricate and Weld

    Pipework is mandrel-bent and TIG welded by hand in the workshop, back-purged for clean, lasting joints.

  4. 04

    Fit and Finish

    The finished work is checked, fitted or prepared for fitting, and gone over so it sits and performs exactly as intended.
