Default Body Kit Install & Paint

Hi all,

I'm new to the site. My brother is a member here too. I was just curious about some places that will install a body kit and paint the whole car for me all at once. Looking for some recommendations on places with a good rep so I won't get ripped off. Any help greatly appreciated!

-Josh

9 times out of 10, you get what you pay for when it comes to bodywork/paint.

for all those that are interested in getting work redone and body kit put on (fitment and quality MUST NOT be POOR, if they are, please expect to pay more for workmanship) i have someone in london that does fitment of body kit and paint as well as few minor body work and such for 700 (enamel based paint, urethane and 2 stage base/clear can be had for a tad more) but here is one that just had his done for exactly 700

Hey, the workmanship on that car was pretty nice and for $700 that ain't too bad. Like someone already said too, to each his own!

BTW, I wanna welcome my bro to the boards too!
Gotta get him out to a meet this summer and myself out to one as well

that all depends on your budget, but from what i've seen, imperial collision did a great job on danBro's, Jaybro's and jeff bro's cars, and Diamond autobody (if i remember correctley) did a really good job on blue dragon's car and the Big hairy gino's car.

700 for that?? I really doubt it. Body work and paint aint cheap. Like Fuzzy said 9/10 you get what you pay for.

You want a job well done, you gotta pay top dollar. But who really does?

id say 9/10 u cant judge body work via pix on the internet. unless they REALLY fuct up the colour matchiing on the paint, u gotta see the car in person to truly evaluate the quality of body work.

yeah, i've heard good things of barry too. i'm heading there tomorrow with the teg, and to car wings (?) up by canjam to see who'll be doing what.

FJ, did you use your USDM rebar with your conversion? I heard barry hasn't done any that way (not that it is that much more complicated... but still)

I can send you to a guy. His prices are bit high but the job at the end speeks for his prices. Two members have had their cars done by him. Just Ask Big Hary Gino. And if your car is Acura you might get a better deal. You cant go by the pics of the car and say that is a good job. Every car looks good on the picture. He can also get you any body kits. And all brand Names( Wings West, BC Design etc.).

European Autobody. My Dad has his car done their look good. Ive said it before and ill say it again they are the only shop i think in canada licensed by ferrari to fix and paint ferraris. Most toronto BMW dealers send their cars to them as well. You get what u pay for like fuzz said. Next summer my car will be painted their.
