Well, we have been around for a little while, and have worked very hard on our reputation for quality. It is time to showcase that even more with this sponsor thread so more of the local, and not so local community can have a chance to see what we have to offer with top quality paint work.

We have done a ton of local cars. and some that have driven hours and hours away to bring their vehicle to us.
Here are some shop pictures, and a few cars of forum members vehicles that we have done, either completely, or extensive repairs on.
unfortunately we dont have pictures of the thousands of other cars that we have done, from ferraris and porsche: lotus, corvette, older classic muscle cars, vipers, big trucks, all out drag cars and so on. We are going to try and stay on top of taking pictures of every car that comes in, from start to finish.

Re: Stock or Modified Bodyworks
As a customer for life, I would like to give my input.
When I first dealt with them, it was to get my Integra done. It was an all over job plus some. I met with Rick initially where he looked over the car and gave me quote. Even after the quote, we sat around an BS'd for a while before I headed back home. Well I had already felt like I wasn't "just a customer". Rick seemed excited to do the work and to put in the man hours on this car and never got the impression that it was about the money. You could tell this was his passion. When it came time to do the work, I delivered the car, and they gave me a full tour of the shop and showed me and explained to me the process of what it took to get this car done. At this point I was very confident in the job and the price. These guys use some very high end stuff! NEXT DAY, I get a whole list of pictures sent to me where the car had already had a lot of time in it. They did not waste any time getting on this. Rick kept me posted as best as he could with all the work he had to do to get this thing ready for Joey to lay down the paint. In less than a week (not including the time they were waiting on me to deliver needed parts), the car was painted completely and they had started getting it back together. When I went to pick the car up I was beyond amazed at what I saw. It was by far past my expectations and they were very high. They removed every window and every other removable panel so this thing looked flawless. No tape lines, no crazy overspray, nothing! AMAZING!
After all of this, I had broken 2 front bumpers, both times, I was given an awesome price on parts and labor and turn around time was superb! Went out of their way to make a bad situation look not so bad.
Next, I decided to tuck and shave the engine bay. Well, let's just say I gave myself a one week deadline to have old motor out, bay welded up, car trailered to these guys, get it back, wire tuck the bay, and install the motor. Starting on a Friday night, I had everything out, welded up, and "ready to go" by Sunday. Rick went out of his way to meet me at the shop to deliver the car and look it over. Let's just say, Rick had far more work cut out for he and his team then he thought with all the welding we had done and body work and grinding of certain areas that needed to be done. Once again, he stuck to his word and took on the job. In just THREE days I had pictures of the bay painted and ready to pick up. THREE days! and it was TONS of work that had to be done. Needless to say they made my one week deadline happen and worked HARD to make this happen for me. They once again, blew my mind!
NOW, my new car is currently there to get the hood painted. Got the car down there Saturday morning and it should be ready to be picked up tomorrow. I mean, seriously? With everything they have going on, I felt like I was top priority whether I truly was or not. I can't wait to see it all said and done.
I really don't feel like I have begun to do that shop justice but I have given enough to read already. Needless to say I live 2 hours away and won't even think to take my car anywhere else. The people, the quality of work, the tools and materials they use... I can't wait to tell people why I take my car there. Do business with them and you will see what I am talking about! You will NEVER go anywhere else.
Thank you guys again for everything you have done for me. It is always a pleasure!

Re: Stock or Modified Bodyworks

But joey was kinda enough to come out and introduce himself to me and we sat and talked for at least 30 min. About his shop, work, other paint related things, and just an all around great guy. Joey is a cool dude and im sure would do anything for anyone! if i can save enough monies i will deff bring my hatch to you guys!

Re: Stock or Modified Bodyworks
Being right around the corner from you guys on Holland... I should just bring my truck in there to let you guys handle the wet sanding. I'm not a painter or body work person and that is one thing I don't want to attempt to screw up.

Re: Stock or Modified Bodyworks
Those runs are actually from lovely I64. It just rained and the truck was super dirty, just the rectangular outline is the issue. I'll swing by when I can and see what you guys think.

Re: Stock or Modified Bodyworks
ahh ok, I thought those may have been well water stais. Alot of people dont realize how badly that stuff can ruin the topcoat if not protected from it. Of course the outline is noticeable, as long as the paint is still intact we should be able to get it looking pretty good.
