baker-jackson nissan has their own body shop and thats not too far from you. depends if you wanna go for show car quality or realize its gonna see some damage as a daily. i went low cost on my kit(you get what you pay for), but between houston highways and the track i dont expect show quality.

I went to this place called Modena autowerks(<--yes thats how its spelled) in the Southwest of houston.
They repainted some parts and fixed a cracked bumper for me which m1autosport phucked up beyond belief and left it in perfect condition. they did an outstanding job but they are a bit pricy. Of course, your first clue is all the high end cars they have in front of the shop the moment you pull in-ferrari's, mercedes, and a buttload of porsches.
I would use them again
Just got some new sideskirts and saving up for a new front bumper!
Of course if anyone else finds a great shop for a great deal let us know!

This is the shop that is next to SGP Racing. SGP used them. Just make sure you ask for the owner (I dont remember his name)

I decided im using a place that was recommended to be by another member here in Houston: 'Stogey420'. I met the guy that runs the shop in person at the PZ meet last Saturday. There were also 2 guys with Z's with us that have had work done there. They have done quite a few Z's....there is another Z in the shop right now getting a full kit, mine is going in today, and even the guy who runs the shop has a Z.

Only prob is its in Pasadena, but more than willing to drive for good work.

Almost there man, pics coming prob tomorrow or Friday...

(Shop says teh Z will be ready by tomorrow (Thurs) afternoon!!)

Rear fit on perfect with little modification but part of sides had to be cut off (both sides) and re-fiberglassed because it was totally off. (where skirt curves up and in into door sill at rear of door opening)
