#49854, "Body Shops in DC Metro Area...."


          

Here's the deal... I need a HIGH QUALITY shop to paint and install some side skirts. I don't want a bullshit paint job, I need it to match my stock color exactly and I need proper fitment of the sideskirts. I'm willing to pay the cost to be the boss! Anyone know a quality place in the DC area?

Thanks

Someone please help me... I contacted Mr. Spoiler in Mannassas, VA and they're trying to charge me $995 to install and paint some SIDE SKIRTS... that's not including the cost of the skirts... this can't be the only place around that does good work.

Thanks, and please help.

Mr.Spoiler in manassas is by far the best around. He has been in many magazines and he does quality work.. i went to his shop the other day and he had 2 modded RX&s a supercharged lowered miata and his car (modded Lexus IS300 with full body kit).. everyone recommends him to everyone. I dunno.. you could always go to maaco..but heh.. "you get what you pay for".. i went to maaco to get my center taillight piece painted..pieces of crap i told them 95 green they said put 96 and said its probably the same color..didn't even fucking match.. went to mrspoiler he looked up the paint code..matched it exactly. I also got my door handles painted/put on there for a good price. I dunno though 900 bucks to paint sideskirts is a lot..maybe there was some confusion or something.. heh.. cause my friend to repaint his whole body kit and repair the sideskirts and get one new sideskirt (his skirts are molded on and his balljoint fucked up cause he didnt know about the recall)..well mr.spoiler quoted him/insurance around $3,500 which seems legit since his car is a custom paint color.. i dunno.. Dan (the ownter) is quite good and he has been doing it for awhile.

edit: installing skirts cost a lot.. you can do it yourself..to get it painted i think it would be around 300-400 bucks.. put them on yourself.. all you need is a wrench and a drill..if that..
