[DFW] Need the absolute best bodyshop in Dallas

Hi guys

My FD has been vandalized (https://www.rx7club.com/lounge-192/my-fd-got-hit-run-i-fucking-caught-him-%5Bepic%5D-536173/), but I have caught the guy and I expect to receive proper compensation for my damages.

Now, I'm in the market for the best bodyshop in the DFW area. I'm looking at having my front and rear bumpers replaced, and I really want to upgrade to the '99-spec front end while I have the chance. So, shops that understand the value of not using factory USDM OEM parts are highly welcomed.

Ideally, I'd also like to have my entire car repainted, instead of trying to mix and match paint with the new bumpers, because I have a good feeling I won't be satisfied with the results otherwise.

Thanks in advance, guys

I just read your original post, and that is the best story i have ever heard... ever.

I am looking for a paint and body shop, and have been pointed by several people towards this one in east plano... that evidently does a lot of show cars. I'll send you the info when i can get a chance. My suggestion would clearly be to find the most expensive shop possible

I had my BMW serviced at Stuart's...indeed excellent.

The only thing I worry about is the parts on our cars. They are used to taking apart Porsche's, BMW's, etc....I have never seen a 3rd gen in there. Also, be prepared for sticker shock.

They are expensive.

I don't think he's worried about that, since he's not the one paying the bill.

Wompa,
I didn't read all the replies on the other thread, but is your former friend that hates you also going to be charged as well... since the two of them were probably in on this together?
