It's across the street from the car wash. I took my car there when someone hit my car in a parking garage. They did a good job.

So does anyone know the cost to repair and paint? I have a spider web on the Kenstyle rear that I just got and the paint is a little bit lighter than the body. So I was thinking about repainting it to match the body this Spring.

Here is the rear:

You should be able to see the lighter shade of ivory pearl than the rest of the body. You can't see the spider web crack, but its on the bottom left.
