My apologies if I put this in the wrong section... I'm still new!

However, I'm wanting to entertain getting some body work/paint work done on my OB sedan. I don't really have any major body "flaws" rather than this nice ding someone left me in the parking lot:



However, I have a rather "peppered" front end from all the high miles I've put on the car. It'd be nice to respray the entire front end and fix that ding, but I'm not wanting to pay out the @$$. Ideally, I'm lookin for anyone on the east coast that does this sort of work for cheap! Not necessarily a large professional shop.

Any help or advice is appreciated as always.

 

Google local autobody shops in your area and shop around, get estimates.

 

Though I can't provide you a specific place, I can advise you to drive around and just pop your head in the shops and see the quality of the work they do. Note the type of cars that are there too. Get familiar with how the painting is done so you can have educated questions for the painters. I'm sure there is a reason why some paint jobs are $500 and some are $5,000...

 

I think he wants a referral, somewhere where he knows that price justifies the work or generally a good shop.

From the main page, scroll to the bottom and look for the regional sections. There might be a sticky for you area, if not make a thread there.

 

If the OP is wiling to come up to Northern Virginia I will happily recommend D and V Autobody. They do fantastic work and are a sponsor for our local National G Club.

They are also Members here, I believe the screen name is D and V
