Does anyone know where to find a good auto body shop that can fix the cracked CF Hood in the bay area? Thanks in advance.

 

where are you from?

-Loc

 

I am located in Vallejo. Preferrable somewhere in east bay, SF area, Solano county.

 

what part is cracked the fg under or the cf on top?

 

Have you seen or read this thread

The crack is CF layer and CF fiber teared on top.

Some people mentioned that the crack will get bigger if it was not treated. So, I am going to try to fix it ASAP.

 

Nobody can recommend me a body shop to go to?

 

Hmmm...not sure if the ppl I've used deals with CF, but they do top notch work with polyurethane and the usual metal body stuff + great paint match.
Local Dealer here uses them for their body work.
Give Travis Auto Body a call in Fairfield.
1350 N. Texas Street (almost at Travis Blvd intersection)

Is CF kinda like Fiberglass in the fabrication/repair process?
IMO, I'd still file claim w/shipper and try to get replaced with new one if no plans to paint your hood.
Have no idea how CF repair is done w/o paint after, in covering repair and still look good.
Is that even possible?

ask jim to find one for you, that way if they mess up he will still be liable

 

i dont know to much bout lay cf, but for then to perfectly match the cf wont they have to re lay the top layer of cf again or the weaving wont match?

I went to a total of 3 body shops and none were able to fix the crack. They all told me to sand down the crack and paint it.

 

I sent photos of the cracks and ask William to see if he could fix it.

 

Thanks superdds for recommending William. I PMed jim and let him know about it. Let's see what his response is.

 

^^^i don't know if william regularly checks his email. you're better off calling him.

 

I already talked to him on the phone and emailed him the photos. He called me back and gave me the estimated cost to fix the CF.
