My door got keyed at school last month and I dropped my car off there this week to get the door repainted. Heard nothing but good things about them. Should be picking up my car tomorrow or Friday so I'll see how it turns out.

Also TGIF in Fremont is good, they reconstructed my rear end when I got bapped by a pickup back in 04.

Hey nat, just bring it to creative kustoms. I've had work done by them before, and they are the only shop i'm impressed with as far as quality of the work for the price they charge.


So...how bad is it?
