Whats going on people? Its about that time for me to start repairing all my winter damages.

I'm looking for a reputable body shop that does excellent work with Frames, body work and repainting. I have 2 spots in north jersey already. Pricey and Im sure I'll get quality work. But looking for a shop that can give a deal.

which shops do you know if north jersey?

just curious because some a$$hole backed into my car while it was parked...dented my left front fender and possibly my door. its not major damage, but you can definitely see it.

so im just wondering how much it would cost to repair, but i dont want to take it to some hack body shop thats just gonna put bondo over it and not actually fix the dent.

im in bergen co.

I'm right in Passaic County. The place I know of is Advanced Collision in Paterson, NJ. Its right on Market St. The shop is legit no hack jobs. If you interested speak to Tony, honest guy so you won't have to worry.

I been through a shop that did a hack job and I regret it. I have to get my whole car redone.

I'm still shopping around. But I might go with this guy since it will be local to me.

there's a place nearby called "Clifton Collision Center" right off rt46. I stopped by for info a while back and that place is serious business. They been open forever, only hire pros with many years of experience, and high class cars go there for bodywork.

The building reminds me of the ones on TV shows like "Overhauled" (C Foose's shop) and "Unique Whips". Very roomy and up to date, even have their own paint booth. I got the lip of my grill painted there and it's top notch work.

I didnt have anything else major done there but they quoted me $400 to paint a pair of z3 fenders. they used to have a website

not saying you should go there, but check it out

Thanks for another location, I will check it out.
If anyone else has any spots put me up. I need my car looking good again.
Im looking for quality paint work but at a fair deal. I have shops I can go to, but don't want to put out an extra amount if I can get the same type of quality else where.

how much can i expect to pay to get a few dents out at these places? i think 3 of the 4 can be pulled out w/ like a dent wizard or whatever, but one of them needs to get hammered out i think.

speaking of dent wizard, are there any places around north jersey specializing in paintless dent removal?

oh, one more thing...colombian, whats your real name? if i call tony at advanced collision i want to be able to tell him who referred me. thanks.
