Need good body shop recommendation near NOVA
I need to find a shop that can do some custom fiberglass work to install door caps and side skirts. Preferably someone with experience installing fiberglass body kits. I'm not looking for a budget job (quality is very important), but I'm also not looking to spend 11ty billion. Waiting list is OK.
Oh, they'll also need to be able to mix or acquire a custom paint color and paint everything. But I think that goes without saying.

If you call the # on the website, you'll prob get Dan's wife, Theresa. Tell her Ramy (me) sent you, and she'll take care of you.

Yea, Dan's legendary in the RX-7 community. He's worked on more RX-7s than anyone else on the East Coast, hands down. It helps that he's less than a mile from where Rotary Performance, Piper Motorsports, and the old Peter Farrell Supercars location was
I've had extensive custom work done by Dan, and the one thing that everyone always comments on is how it's such a high quality job - not just the paint, but EVERYTHING lines up PERFECTLY. If you look at most body work, the lines almost always don't line up. It takes hours upon hours of modification and tweaking to reach that level of perfect. It's no wonder why I won't let ANYONE but Dan work on my FD and R34.
