reputable body shop in NE Ohio

Hello,

I'm looking for a good body shop in North eastern ohio (Akron area). I need to get a crunched quarter panel fixed and possibly have the front end repainted. The last time I was backed into, I had it fixed at Sterling and they messed it up a pretty good (large sanding marks in the color coat and very deep marring and sanding marks in the clear). If any of you Ohio guys can direct me to somebody who does good work for a fair price, I'd really appreciate it.

I also had work that I was less than pleased with done by sterling. Last year I had some work done by a shop called the Finishing Edge in ravenna I believe..not that far up rt 8..they did nice work on my truck. It's not orange peel free and car show ready, but looks every bit as good as the original.

I have had work done at Classic Collision 8697 Tyler Blvd, Mentor, OH 44060 (440) 205-9900. They use a very unique system and the place is spotless. It sure isn't what you would envision when you think of a body shop. I would not say they are the cheapest around, but they sure are good. The system they use can be seen at DCR Systems and you will certainly be impressed when you see how clean and organized they are.
