Ok, so here's what I'm looking for. I've done some searching and cannot seem to find a shop that can repaint my bumper, install a 3M clear bra and repaint/repair an OEM wheel with a bit of road rash. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I'm not very familar with Texas? I'm about an hour north of Dallas now.

 

Clear Bra: almost any shop should be able to do that as its generally an item you install yourself (carefully)....

Bumper: I'll see what i can find as far as a good body shop around the sherman area (i have family that lives in denison)

Wheel Repaint: https://my350z.com/forum/body-interior-exterior-and-lighting-diy/359558-diy-repairing-curb-rashed-rims.html Its reallly not worth the money to pay (on average) $150 per wheel when you can sand and repaint the wheel yourself....

Good Luck

 

Thanks for the reply. You'd be surprised, all of the shops I called up here so far said they did not want to/could not install a clear bra. Most even thought I was crazy to even have the bumper repainted. As far as the DIY, it seems pretty straightforward, but I'd probably mess that up. The area on mine needs a bit more paint so I'd be curious to see how the blending of new paint with old paint would look. I'm not very crafty with stuff like that

 

you could just strip the whole wheel and repaint the full wheel face.... thats what i am probably going to do with mine.... and if you are having trouble putting on a clear bra i'd suggest putting it on yourself (its really not as hard as you'd imagine
