Another one for the Markham Area:
PD Motoring:
Two previous mechanics who used to work at Speedstar opened their own shop earlier this year. While I have no direct affiliation with them, they've taken care of my car since day 1 of conceiving it and I have become somewhat acquainted with both the shop owners.
List of things that they done on my S:
- Fluid Changes (Diff, Tranny, Clutch, Brake & Oil)
- Find+Fix Coolant Leaks (Heater core hose and lower rad hose)
- Scan+Fix CEL codes
- Install new wheel studs
- Replace Cracked Retainers (Also noted that it was an issue, before I was aware)
- AC Line Fix / Refill
- Mount/balance tires
- Various other small tidbits.
Affordable pricing! (compared to most shops). Dennis is a Honda enthusiast, and while he is more experienced with FWD cars - his partner Peter is extremely capable of taking care of our cars (experience from Speedstar).
152 Bullock Drive Unit 5
Markham, Ontario L3P 1W2
Today 9:00am - 7:00pm
Phone (905) 471-6363

I had some work done by Original Auto Refinishing in North York. I had the bumpers refinished and a crease from a dent that could not be completely corrected with pdr on the door removed, my hardtop taken apart and color matched and my wheels refinished. And a three stage polish. It came out really nice. I am so happy how it turned out. They even have their own scanner for the paint and did three different sprayouts to see what matched best. These guys are really detailed and take the time to do it right and do not cut corners with prep and materials. They aren't the cheapest because you get what you pay for but still very reasonable for the quality of work they do. My car was a 7/10 before but it is now a 9. If you are looking for a shop to get quality work done where you can actually talk to the person working on your car, definitely check them out.

It doesn't have to be done from a body shop. If you bring it to a body shop and say you want fenders rolled flat and pulled chances are they will respray the panels too seeing as body shops don't USUALLY have fender rollers. Contact Ontario fender roller, 519 574 3212. He's very reasonably priced and won't warp your fenders.

For those in the West end of Mississauga, I would recommend:
Sil's Auto
1040 Winston Churchill Blvd
Oakville, ON L6J 7Y4
(289)724-0177
http://www.mechanicmississauga.com/
I take both the S2000 and my other Hondas to Sil's, and I'm very happy with the service.

Another vote for Speedstar up in Markham (http://speedstar.com/) - was working with Frank who emailed me with quotes (all broken down and detailed) and held the prices upon delivery. Very professional crew and even cleaned up the exterior for my '04. Would highly recommend.
