*nod* About the same amount for my repairs. I'm surprised it's not more, actually.

Went to get my car a few days ago.

It looked bad The paint doesn't match!!! All most took the joy out of driving the car!

Taking it back to them Thursday... I hope they can match it this time...if they can't I'll have to take it to another place!

They told me that the Honda Paint code didn't work! And had to make up their own mixture, of paint to get it as close as they could. 1/3 of the car looks like a MUSTARD color, dull yellow... It would not be so bad but you can see where the new paint ends and the original color starts.

In respect the the auto body shop, they said they would do everything thing they can to make me happy...so we will see...


ps: Elistan....they are under new owner ship..the Russian guy sold his part his associate...

I can highly recommend John Eagle Collision Center......... Had both fenders, nose, hood and windshield frame replaced after my wife's wreck. Paint job was a good match. Vernon (shop Mgr) and Steve are great to work with.

Plus they support the board.

Also if you need a place to get alignment, they will put it to your specs with out the "not factory specs" hassle. Their tech, Jose, was great. He put it on the money, then pulled it off the machine and put it back up there just to make sure it was still right. He had 5 or 6 print outs for me to look at to show that the variations were all within my specs.

Do you know how much they charge for an alignment, do they allow you to sit in the car during the alignment, and what kind of alignment machine they use?

They charge $79.99 and use a new Hunter system..........not sure about letting you sit in the car, but unless there is an insurance issue I don't see why they wouldn't.

Call em on the main dealership number and ask for Collision Repair.
