Default need to roll fenders near Palo Alto area, need recomendations

I need to roll the front fenders due to some rubbing which is getting worse. I'd prefer a shop that's open on Saturdays (since I work during the week) and preferably near the Palo Alto area.

Also, how much should I expect to pay? Hopefully under 100 bucks!

Thanks in advance

Default Here's a place in Redwood City...

Automotive Perfection. Ask for Jack Perkins. Tell him Corey Smith/Steve Sherwood sent you. He usually charges ~$40 (total), I think. He's a good body man, does lots of Ferrari stuff, and lots of restorations.<p>Corey S

Thanks Corey, I'll post more info about it after I talk to Jack.

Dt,

I have Borbet Type C, 17s. I bought the rims used with tires. I think there is a posting in the classifieds for the same thing.

Default Sometimes he's hard to catch by phone. You may have to keep calling.

Corey,

I'm looking for a place to repaint my hood. Do you think that's a good place to do it? My car is a blue estoril M3 (with chips on the hood, thanx to highway 880)<p><img src="http://www.me.umn.edu/~marts/cartoon_car.jpg">

Default Yes, Jack Perkins is the owner...he does a lot of BMW/Porsche/Audi/Exotic stuff

He is also the guy who rolled my fenders on both my A4 and S4.<p>Steve S4
