Default LA area bodyshop

Hi all,

Unfortunately one of my first posts is bit of a downer. The passenger side of my 996GT3 was hit. The passenger door took most of the impact but there's some scratch on the fenders and front bumper as well. Very little if any impact with the wheels. The car still drives straight and everything feels fine.

Any recommendation for body shops in the Los Angeles area? I used Marco in the past and they seem to do good work.

Thanks in advance.

John

Avio Coachcraft in West LA. He's done many cars for me and my friends over 15 years. The best IMHO.....

Scandanavian Coach Craft in West Los Angeles.

Same scenario as jrgordonsenior. Very good experience with Ole over the years.

This IS the place. Go by and take a tour. They are focused on high end cars. Might take a little time as they are very busy and OCD.

I just dropped off the car at Avio this morning. Very nice guy. I'm confident it'll be good as new. Thanks guys for the recommendation.

Please let us know your honest assessment once you get the car back.
