Local Body Shops

Anyone know of any local body shops that do top quality work?

Re: Local Body Shops

BMW of Fairfax does really nice work (basically independent from the dealership) They have a Top Notch Body Shop and Paint Shop. I know alot of the guys there personally and I have seen their work first hand. They work on all makes and models and are one of the few shops that can work with Aluminum panels.

I have to disagree with you from an experience, I had them do a white X5 for me
and they did such a ****** job, tdkeny worked on the car and seen what they have done,
he had to wet sand it to bring at as close as possible to the already crappy OEM paint job,
his free to comment on that. not only that but also they did a worser job on a friend Alpina 760 as will.

The best body shop I have used lately is First Choice body shop in Arlington,
as soon as you stop by you will see Ferrari's and Porsche's twin turbos and such,
lots of high-end BMW's as will. top quality to say the least but at a price.
