Default Body / Paint Shop in SF

Hey guys,

Recent transplant from NYC--one of the valets at work just drove my 997.1S into a pillar / wall of the garage Fortunately they have admitted liability, but now I need a good paint shop for some repair / respray work (nothing structural, but the front / rear clips need to come off and be repainted).

Can anyone recommend a good shop in SF / the bay area?

Thanks!

I'm in the city (Bernal Heights), but don't mind traveling if needs be. Any suggestions very welcome!

I'm surprised you aren't getting better response because there must be some good shops closer than this one.
This guy is an artist and I would go great distances to use him.

Check out European Collision Center in SOMA. I had my bumper resprayed there and it was great.

Maybe a bit of a drive but I've had great experience with Gava's Auto Body in San Bruno.

Had minor to full car repaint done by them and they do quality work.

+1 on Gava's Auto Body. They do great work there. Had my ducktail painted there and GT3 Smile grill put on with the GT front lip.

Also look into Spectrum Autobody in SF. They're Diamond certified and do quality stuff as well. Had one of my cars resprayed there. They also did the paint jobs on the Twin 993's RWB build a few months back.

Have gone to them for almost all my body work. I love that they work for you, not the insurance companies.

Great work.

I had my BMWs repaired at European Auto as well, they did flawless work. This was > 10 years ago though.
