Default Need a good body shop, whos the go to guys now?

Car Toyz 2, where are you guys!

My new neighbor has a newer 350Z and I've been telling him for awhile that I'd take him for a ride in my Z, today was that day, I had to stop and get some gas, I get out to fill the tank and he gets out and oops hits the concrete pillar next to the pump. DOH! My car is an 03 and I think this is the first ding ever in the car. I couldn't do anything but laugh and say **** happens. I felt bad for him. Glad I wasn't him hahaha

anywho, **** happens and now I need to get it fixed, while it's at the shop I'd also like to get my rear bumper cover refasten since its slightly sagging.

Local is better, but I don't mind taking it somewhere further if it means getting it done right.

Where's the airbrush dude from car toys? he still around?

anywho, the pics.




What's weird is the part of the door that hit the concrete did not chip, it bent the door and then cracked the pain where the bend crease is.

hoping it can be easily bent back and then that part of the door air brushed, I'd hate to have the whole door repainted for something that small.

Hey Jeffie, that JP Type A rear add-on will eventually scratch up your rear bumper big time and keeps on sagging more and more. You should consider getting it molded.

+1 on D&V but they're a little far from ya Jeffie. Check out Autobody Images as well off Rt.32 and Rt. 1. They've done work for me in the past and I was VERY pleased with it. Joe is the name of the owner. They do quite a bit of work on historic vehicles in the area.

I can vouch for Autobody Images. They did very nice work on my girlfriend's car.

I've heard of Christian Autobody before, but I've never seen their work. I heard they are an honest and fair shop, though.

Christian autobody has great compatative pricing, and their paint match is dead on.
I will post some pictures of my vertex kit once they are out from the shop.

I've heard other good stuff about Autobody Images, I wonder how low car friendly they are, that's the big + to car toys, they dealt with low cars day in and day out where other body shops might not even look at my car.

I'm subscribing, b.c. I've yet to find a body shop that I trust and my car is still multi-colored.
