Well, due to some "unfortunate" circumstances I need some reccomendations for a body shop that does good prep and paint work, but not at outrageous prices. I can go into detail when I get my car back, but until then I just need some references. Preferably a shop that you've been to multiple times that does good work since I hate orange peel and lines. I will flip out if I get anymore work that has orange peel and lines in it.

fine, let me define this post a little more since morons visit these forums. I dont need your 2 cents about anything but a recommendation on a good body shop. If you cant make that recommendation then shut the fuck up and dont post. :mad:

I used Paragon when I did the Votex bumper and CF hood. Easy to work with and very good work.

Autoshape in Durham did my corrado.

The guys at any of the 4 haddocks do a GREAT job.

If money is not an option there is a body shop in between Raleigh and Cary off of 54,damnit i cant think of the name, but they did my father in laws s2000 when he got rearended.
