Case Study: GoWesty achieves long-lasting, industrial-strength VW parts with Xometry

GoWesty Engineers VW Parts that Last a Lifetime

GoWesty, based in Los Osos, California, designs and supplies aftermarket parts for vintage Volkswagen camper vans and needed a reliable manufacturer to produce durable, American-made end-use components that meet strict quality standards. Facing capacity limits and rising costs from a small local shop, GoWesty turned to Xometry (via the MakeTime acquisition) for CNC machining and sheet‑metal fabrication of critical parts.

Xometry manufactures roller bearings, window cranks, EFI components and multi‑material suspension bushings that deliver industrial strength and longer life—replacing fragile plastic cranks with heavy‑duty aluminum versions, for example. Xometry also provides more competitive pricing, faster service (50% faster quoting than other shops), and clear online order tracking, enabling GoWesty to reliably produce hundreds of in‑house designs and improve part durability and customer satisfaction.
