I have heard only bad things about them. the ONLY Place I would take my car is car medics. THey do some great work on G's and Z's... www.carmedautobody.com
Anyways, car medics do awesome custom work and the owner, Eddie is a perfectionist. He will not let the car leave his shop unless he's 100% happy. They also have very reasonable rates. I will never go ANYWHERE while car medics are still around.

BodyWerks (now AutoWerks) Is known for award winning body work.
I just called them a couple weeks ago about getting a seibon hood painted and thats where I'm going to be going when I order it in a few weeks. He was telling me they just got done with a G they did a pearl white with a gold flake, carbon roof, shaved door handles, sounded pretty nice.
The work they've done for Drivers Image is really really nice

I used to live in Illinois and I knew they used to do good work but then they had so much demand they were just pushing out cars left and right and there quality went to sh*t and last I knew it hasn't changed from that...........
Also it seems like Larry the owner only cares about the TOP DOLLAR cars that are there for months paying the big bills, and those customers would get top of the line service but for the average guy with a body kit, paint, etc.....to them you maybe a dime a dozen.

The G they just did was mine, i absolutely love how the car turned out. Larry and Ron were really professional about it and i definitely recommend them to anyone out there who wants awesome work done to the car

I actually own the bodyshop that did the work on Wongys G....The paint is a custom blend white with a gold pearl...the carbon fiber roof was custom fabricated just for his car..In addition to those few items we shaved his door handles, installed a pop kit, molded his side skirts, tinted his tails, powder coated his wheels a custom color and coated his calipers.....The photos do not do the car justice...It is a must see in person ride.
Wongy came to me with a vision of what he wanted his car to look like, my partner Larry and I took Wongys vision and expanded on it....The end result is stellar to say the least.
We specialize in custom, but will fix anything..In addition to paint, we do custom interiors and have a complete accessory center that carries everything from bodykits to wheels, from exhaust to mobile electronics.
I am sure Wongy would agree that our bodyshop is probably the nicest and largest in the country...we have an indoor car showroom with revolving inventory...currently on display we have a F430 Spyder, a 05 Ferrari Scagliette, a 98 Viper GTS, a 05 Viper srt and an 06 Bmw 645.
Michael, I hope you are as happy with your car as I am.
Regards
Ron
ps...your bmw cover shipped today

Actually, the email is accessed by the owners nephew. They are not really tech savy, so I doubt they check email on the regular. Best way to get in touch with them is via phone. PM if you have any issues, I talk to these guys all the time.
