i would say they are on more of the upper end. but like the saying goes..

I havent personally asked them to do any carbon fiber repairs but i know they work closely with seibon, mainly because seibons shop is right next to theirs.

I took a tour of their shop because I am getting a shine amuse kit in a few months or so and they know what they are doing. They had seibon's R35 in the shop because they had just finished putting a carbon fiber lip kit and that thing looked amazing!!! I believe ken was the one that was helping me out and he explained everything they will do to my car in the process of painting/installing the body kit. He also showed me how they primer the car the color that they will be painting it so when/if the paint does chip, it chips the same color as the cars paint. He was very professional when we were discussing the process and prices. I will be getting my body kit installed and painted there. Saw some of there work and was convinced instantly and I am a very picky guy lol. A little pricey but you get what you pay for.

yea definitely. Kens and Tony are cool guys, but definitely try to talk to Ken cause he basically owns the shop. They have a lot of crazy cars in their garage (I went right before sema and man, i think 5 GT-R's were in there...) They do good work like i said but it will be a little bit more expensive.
