It's in Broward County, but you'd be pleasantly surprised to see how great Kelly Auto Body (Hollywood/Hallandale) can be on our cars. The neighborhood (to the east, the high-rent beach area is a mile away) is awash in exotics, so they usually have a Lame-bo or P-Car in the shop getting some work done from major to minor facelifts.

Ask for Kevin, tell him Bill sent you.

Used the shop Braman uses. The shop does exotics, but it seems the small jobs are not what they want. Had a rear bumper replaced, but it seems they have difficulty matching paint. They do everything they can to convince the owner that it's the best it will get. The name of the shop is Fantastic Finishes in West Palm Beach. Unless you have major work take it to maybe Stuggart where Champion Porsche sends their cars. Even tried calling the owner of Fantastic Finishes multiple times never got a returned call. Had to talk to the mgr. so no returned phone calls should be a red flag. They claim they are Porsche certified. When going through the process of getting the issue resolved they did everything the could to avoid a respray. What's so ironic is they state on their website they guarantee paint match. Well they miss the mark.
Fellow SE Florida Porsche owners avoid this shop and try the shop Champion Porsche uses.

Anything to do with Bramin is over priced.

Yup I have to agree even though the finish comes out great, they are not good a matching paint!
