Hey guys.. I know that there was a previous thread regarding all these different bodyshops around Southern California. However, this thread is to ask if anyone knows of (or has gotten work done at) a bodyshop that is willing to work with aftermarket parts around the 818 area. In regards, as far as making proper fitment, prepping, and cleaning up (ie. shaving parts to smoothen out, or make fit, etc.). Anything is really feasible.

I'm willing for anyone in/around the (818) San Fernando Valley to chime in please.

Anywhere around:

1) San Fernando Valley
2) Santa Monica
3) Pasadena
4) Los Angeles

Let me know, so I could touch up my bumper and other parts that i'm going to be adding to my car. Thanks a lot yo!

 

bump?

 

Getting my car done at Paul's Auto Body in Van Nuys. Not really aftermarket work, but they can do it. PM me for more info.

 

Do a search for "bodyshop" in the entire Southern California sub-forum. Also.. do NOT NOT NOT NOT go to Autonetwork bodyshop! Everytime I'm near by, I just want to light their shop on fire and watch it burn to the ground!!!!!!

 

right on.. thanks guys.

 

Just had a full Kenstyle bodykit installed on my car by a shop in Pasadena called NP2 Autobody.. They do fitting and all. They did a perfect job on my car. Paint match is perfect. I dont have the number and address on me right now but if ur interested.. let me know.

I'm going to have my front bumper re-painted by M1 soon. Autonetwork's paint matching was excellent, but too bad the paint doesnt stick! I have more rock chips on my bumper than I have actual paint!!!!

 

AYECHI loll i'm sorry.. I know how you feel.. my buddy had the same problem.

Where exactly is M1 located?

 

Thanks a lot guys on all the info!..

 

now.. from Np2.. were your guy's kits all authentic? Or were they replicas of any sort? Did they have to prep the kit as well?

 

oh yea and how much was it to get all your work done.. if you guys could pm me to keep it personal.. There's no need to let everyone know your guys' secrets lol. Unless you don't mind, then by all means.

 

My Kit is a Kenstyle Replica made by VIS. They would have prepped the kit but the owner said they didnt have to. It was made very well. I think I remember him saying that he only had to make slight modifications to the sideskirts but i'm not sure. Here are a couple of pics so you can see the fitment.

 

looks good! how much they charge to prep and install?

 

Thanx, they charged about $1400.. prep and install.
