Default Paint Shop Recommendations
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/97803/img_3614a.jpg"></center><p>I scraped the front right of my car (see circled portions of picture (other marks due to flash)) and was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for a good and reasonably priced shop that could repair it. The area of damage is small, but it's deep. No body damage, just paint.

Also, what should this repair cost? The estimates I've gotten range from $400-700+.

I'm on the East Bay so something close by is preferred, but I don't mind driving.

Thanks.

Give Brooks Motor a try in Oakland (right before the airport).

Do you have contact information for CAR Auto Body? I can't find it.

Thanks.

Default Re: Paint Shop Recommendations
Does anyone have a recommendation for a paint shop closer to Newark/Fremont?

Any thoughts on cost?

Thanks.
