Default Local shop to instal Fiberglass parts?

Any shops around that do a good job installing Fiberglass on a 350Z? He has a hood, spoiler, and side skirts - don't know if that makes a difference. He lives in Falls Church Area. Thanks.

If you want to have the kit molded let me know. We just molded a spoiler to an AE86 at my shop, and it looks pretty bad ass.

I don't really know what you mean by molded. I assume it is like carbon fiber where it needs to be fitted specifically to that car? He told me he bought the parts and wants them installed and asked me if I knew a good place to have it done, which I don't so I came here. Thats all I know.

molded is where they actually put the pieces on and use fiberglass and/or bondo to make it look like a part of the car.

fitted is where you can still see the lines of the kit. (usually attached with just screws and 3M tape) Some modification to the kit may be necessary.

I'm sure someone will chime in with a better explanation, but that's pretty much the simple version.
