good repair shop in SJ
Hey Guys,
As you may or may not know, the Turbo is out of action for a while until i can get my bumper repaired or replaced. Anyone know of a good p-car repair shop in San Jose?
Thanks in advance,
Sean

Master Mechanic (I think) in Santa Clara is awesome. Waid (the owner) is a really nice guy - he's worked on my 944, my brother's, my dad's 750, and my dad's M5. Does great work. PM me if you need contact info.
EDIT: The more I read your post, the more I wonder if this is more of a body shop type thing. I've not had them do any of that...so you may want to ignore my ramblings.

For body work, Dell Autobody in Campbell is hands down the best body shop in the Bay Area. They also charge accordingly. If you want something a bit more reasonable, Monterey Collision in SJ does fantastic work, but tends to only take insurance jobs.
For maint. and repairs, CT Automotive, and Don's Autowerks (both in Campbell) tend to do decent work. I haven't had the best experience with CT, but everyone I have talked to says otherwise. Modderman in Mountain View is where most of the 993 and GT3 guys go, and he works on 944s as well. Not sure about his pricing or how satisfied his 944 customers are, but all the 911 guys I talk to say he's the best.

I recommend Devek. They primariy do 928s', but they also do any P-car. I had them do my head gasket for my 944. They did a great job. They are in Redwood city if you do not mind the drive.
