My dad usually goes to:

Fix Auto Downsview
86 Martin Ross Avenue
Toronto (Ontario), M3J 2L4
Phone : (416) 665-1427
Fax : (416) 665-8946

They're pretty good. The person who works on our cars has a G35c; I always forget to ask him if he's a member on this forum or not.

Expensive but you get what you pay for, 2 locations

Prochilo Bros on toryork blvd, just down the street from the accident reporting center, and another location in scarborough somewhere

Woodchester Collision.... they own Woodchester Infiniti and Oakville Infiniti, so very famil with the vehicles.
I heard horror stories of some other places in Sauga, stuff not fitting right, things stolen. Can't really go wrong with the dealer owned body shop.

Guys, I had my passenger fender painted twice and the bodyshop was still unable to get the color matched right. I own an IVory Pearl coupe so its pretty hard already. the problem is, my doors seemed to have been painted from the previous owner and they say that it has a bit more ivory in it. But as far i can tell, ONLY the fender stands out.. specially when using my DSLR camera to take pics.

I don't mind paying a lil bit more (as someone mentioned, you get what you pay for) but i paid a good amount for the previous attempts and that was the best they could do.

can anyone recommend a nice shop that is an expert at color matching! its my damn FENDER that sticks out!! (passenger side)

Question Pics

Here are the pics, hopefully you guys can suggest a nice place. Thanks.
I haven't had a chance to upload any pics of the car yet so this is also a first.








p.s: the front bumper has been repainted along with the fender as well. (the car was in a cornered fender bender

i didn't drive it much, since i drive this car more often (which is now my winter car). But once the temperatures are more friendly, i'll be taking the G out. (the wind gusts caused some minor bumps on the G with lil pebbles )






I never liked silver so decided to paint the car black, and as you can see, this car owns the G when it comes to Entertainment. I have internet, and every screen can display something different

Hopefully you'll see me more often.. i'm usually around the McCowan & Sheppard Area.

p.s: I have removed the rims and raised the car back to regular height. be on the look out!!!

I didn't want to start a new thread so thought I would ask the question on this one. I was wondering if anyone has visited any body shops lately or if they have any bodyshops they would recommend to work on their G?

I have a small dent on the rear fender that I want to get fix and wouldn't mind repainting the front bumper.

Hwy 7 autocollision or 427 autocollision...both have great reps. Do not go to Lyons Autobody in Sauga.
