bodyshops

First let me say that i appreciate and value all of your advice thnx for that. R&j was my first choice because of location but i cant make it out there at night bc of work. So i went to see esteban @auto explosion. Super cool guy. Very patient w/ me n my noob questions. Dont be fooled by this shop. First impressions are not good. Lol. But go inside because whats going down behind those walls is nothing short of amazing. I felt completely out of my league.you guys didnt overhype this shop at all. My car is not worthy yet lol. I just want to go back to original status cuz really i want to enjoy my stockie for a lil while yet. So i decided to take it to the dealer and crossed my fingers. Hopefully autoexpolsion hasnt seen the last of me. Thnx guys

If you're just looking for like OEM repair, I know a good place in Pasadena that I take my car too(its actually there right now, hit and run also!). Pasadena is really far from you though....

I feel your pain man, I hope you have full coverage so you don't have to pay outta pocket....
Thnx pal. The shop is helping me w/ half the deductible wich is nice. Saw a bunch of gs in the shop and that made me feel better bout leaving my car there. Ill let you all know how it goes. Btw,sorry bout your car too bro.
No matter how hard you try and protect it right?
