body shop in south miami?

I recently got rear ended and now I need a new bumper cover, does anyone have any good places to go to for installation and paint? The dealership quoted me 756 for everything, but that seems a little high.. Any advice?

You can go to MC&A (miami chassis and alignment ) just dont get your car polished there!. At body work they are great, but not @ detailing. Speak to Gio or Julio both owners. Tell em Yurack sent you

miami chasis does excellent work. Some of their paint work comes out better than factory. But the downfall is their price.

A friend of mines has a shop near Cutler Ridge.
It's called Excellence Automotive and he's done work on all of my cars and he does awesome work for reasonable prices. 305-251-7602. Tell him Mo sent you.

That quoted me $6K to repaint my car. I know there is a lot of prep work involved in respraying the entire car, but I am not looking for a show car paint job.

I'll check him out when I get my car back in January. My paint job is severly fuked. I just want it to look new again without all the swirl marks, but I am not going to dump $5-$6K on a paint job that will just get dicked up again within 2 years.

Where is he located in Cutler Ridge? I am nearby in the Cutler Bay area.

ya he's by US1 and marlin road. There's a BJ's there, a Saturn dealership and that cutler ridge flea market.

He pretty much did my first car for me. Color change, re-clearing of the carbon hood and trunk. Did some fiberglass work for me on the front lip and rear wing. He also painted a set of Advan Kreuzers for me in gunmetal before I got the gold wheels.
