Default Good body shop

I've had my car in and out of one body shop here, who will remain nameless, but they kind of f'd up my car every time I brought it there. They did work hard (more or less) to fix most of the things they messed up, and did work with me on some things that I wanted done, but I would rather deal with someone else from now on ....

I need to get my fender fixed, and while I'm at it I was going to have the shop roll my fenders (in case I ever want to go with a wider set of wheels) ... any suggestions?

Jeremy has a guy who works out of his garage on the side. You might try him.

Otherwise, Visual FX seems to get good reviews.

Autocrafters seems like a good shop, I went there when I was collecting insuarance estimates, they were the most expensive but they were doing work on two cops' cars when I went in, so I'm guessing they know what they're doing. I'll check them out, thanks!

Not all Autocrafters are created equal...there is one that's back behind Brumo's Mercedes and they are complete total idiots.

That's weird, someone else in the Service Dept. @ Honda of the Avenues sent me to the original body shop I've been going to ... imagine that.

It feels great ... the shifts are quicker, the notchiness is gone, all around, a great shift knob. It does heat up a bit though ... I'm debating on whether to take some metal polish and a torch to it and turn it into a true JDM knob
