Re: I just opened up my own Autoshop in Fullerton!!!

I'll give all you guys the best deal that I can. I'm positive my tire prices are the best in OC. Paint we pride ourselves in our quality and customer service. Since we care about quality I cant just randomly give you guys estimates because some cars need more work then others. So just come in and I can give you guys a more accurate estimate on the paint jobs. That way you guys can visit me too! Its seriously nice to have a shop you can trust.

Tom

flipmoderacer02 I can get konigs I'll check the price on monday and let you know.

Re: I just opened up my own Autoshop in Fullerton!!!

my job is near that place i think.

what about dent removal? i got a nasty dent on the edge of the drivers door about 3 inches long and the door edge is folded in about 30 degrees.

i could also use a new door panal.

Okay, Thats a given. Lets do this. The price for a paint job on a car that is in good condition includes what and will cost how much? What is the "hookup" price you would give us?

Like I said. Every car is different. "Good Condition" to you might not be the same good condition for somebody else. The most accurate estimate I can give you is if you bring it in. We are also not one day paint so if your looking for one day paint prices, then thats not us. We pride ourselves in our quality of paint and quality of work.

Re: I just opened up my own Autoshop in Fullerton!!!

Congrats on the new opening Tom. I haven't been around this place in a long while, so it's nice to see many moving in a good direction. If it is at all possible, would like to obtain a quote from you on a standard '04 OEM front and rear bumper paint/minor fix job and a '01 OEM front bumper painted. Thanks in advance with any input.

Jeff
