So I may want to get a front lip and my stock sideskirts painted at some point...can anyone recommend a shop to do the work? I live in St. Louis Park and work in Maple Grove and/or Shoreview, so it would be cool if the shop was somewhere around there. Any ideas on price as well? Thanks.
Rayomond Auto Body 1075 Pierce Butler Route St. Paul, MN 55104-1593 Ask for Rick Koonce 651-558-0105 They did my WRX after it was destroyed from a hail strom a few months ago, was a great job!
Total cost was about $9600, I paid $500 of for my deductable, and $200 for them to do the trunk. But.. my car was F*@#$#! I drove right into the front of the Hail storm that hit the 494 area. 1.5" hail for about 25 minutes, I couldn't get under a bridge... cause I couldn't even see the hood of my car... I barely got off the freeway! lol Basically, I got a whole new car on the outside for $500. and they made my paint job look great! Looks better then it did before the hail storm.
$9600?? wow are u kidding?? lol i got dent all over my hood and my top-.- i rather buy a cabin fiber hood instead lol .
My hood, Roof, Sides, everything was F-d! They replaced the whole outside of my car basically, then had to re-paint everything, Farmers Insurance almost declared it Totalled! I'm serious here... it was that bad! Never drive a nice car into a Hail Storm!!!
sorry to hear that...i wasnt driving my car, still got hailed. lol plus i dont have full converage on my car, thats sad.... pretty much, i just ignore the hail damage lol
sorry for stealing the thread... but my car got keyed on both side, but i believe the prime layer is not damaged yet....so wonder anyone will recommand Abra auto body??
Wreck Brothers auto body off of chicago in minneapolis... its my uncles body shop he does great work cheap he wanted $250 to paint my carbon fiber hood and deck lid
i heard someone said just touch it up with touch up paint, and buff it ...have u guys ever heard about this method
he stole the thread chokin you are gonna have a hard time making a metallic paint look good with touch up paint and a buff....
yea...i stole this thread, becuase i dont wanna start a new thread. so actually this is for another car...its is not matallic, but its just nighthawk black pearl color ( just black even under the sun)..
I don't mind that the thread was "stolen"...just looking for good bodyshops in the area. As you were...
yea its an 04 acura TSX...also i just wonder, if i do the touch up and a buff, but the outcome doesnt look good... would it be bad to bring to car in and have the shop to do the job after?? since i only have liability on the car, i should prob. end up paying everything myself.
