Default A&L Auto in Palatine

This body shop is on Dundee Rd in Palatine. I drive pass it daily to work and it always has modded BMWs, VW etc. Sometimes I see S2000s too which made me wonder if anyone from here is familar with this shop? Seems like they're receptive to custom work?

IIRC, AJ knows him, and I know him through the Cherokeesrt8.com forums. He drives one and does tail light tinting for a lot of the members. I am planning on sending mine down to him, just can't afford the down time on the car as it's my only one. Super nice guy from talking to him on the forums back and forth.

I heard of them, they specialize on Euro cars and they also work on S2k's. A buddy of mine took his BB S2 for some body work and he was pretty happy with the service.

Its a family owned place, I've dealt with Anthony and he gave me a great deal on tires and mounting/balancing. He mounts and balances for $10 a tire. I also have friends that have done suspension work there and he does good work for reasonable prices. I heard he recently picked up an e92 m3...

Anthony's Shop !

Guy is a standup guy and the shop does awesome work. Check him out on the Euroteknik forums. All the Euro guys in the Chi area go to him, and I have had done some work done as well on my past cars.

Ahh, that explains all the euros I see there. And there is a beautiful white E92 with some type of light graphic treatment on it with black wheels that occasioanlly graces that parking lot in addtion to a stock BB AP1.

I met Anthony and another guy from A&L at the last Club Lexus meet. They were great guys, and the M3 that Anthony brought was definitely bad ass. I'm waiting to see his SRT8 Jeep though.

I'm looking to get some work done...I'll drop by there to get a feel for them.
