Here's another vote for Bret and Troy at Flatirons. They're the only shop in the Denver area that's worth a damn. They stand behind the factory warranty, and perform performance mods to boot. I live in Littleton, but it's well worth the drive!

And, WickedRydaX, I challenge you to find any shop in Denver that wouldn't ask you to pay for something that was caused by your after-market part malfunction. Not to mention, you didn't end up having to pay...

Sorry if I'm kicking a dead horse, but I feel that we should support the best shop in Denver.

[B]Has anyone had any experience with a body shop in the Denver/Boulder area? I unfortunately sideswiped the passenger side my WRX on a guardrail outside of Boulder. Having never had to go to a body shop in Colorado, I am feeling a little lost and do not just want to follow the suggestion of my insurance company. If anyone has any suggestions or experiences with a shop please feel free to let me know.

Chris,
I grew up in Broomfield, and have had more body damage on my car in the 5 years I've had it than most people in their whole lives. THE BEST shop as far as service and quality of repair work is Fender Menders on Main Street, just south of 120th ave. Talk to Bob, and tell him that Brian Graus sent you. They're typically a little more expensive, but they'll work with your insurance and make them pay the extra. I've had every axle, control arm, and body panel replaced, and it looks and drives like it's brand new! I can't say enough about how good they perform work.

I am posting this to say that I am sorry for what I have said. Bret and Troy are great guys, they know their stuff. I feel that the problem wasn't fully explianed to me. I feel that if it was explained to me better I wouldn't have had such bad reaction to it.
Once again I'm sorry that I had this problem with flatirons. I know see that I was in the wrong in this problem so I have nothing bad to say about them.

WickedRydaX,
Thank you for the apology it takes alot of character to admit publicly that you were wrong, it is greatly appreciated.

Also did you get your fuel rail situation straightened out?

Thanks again,
Troy

ThankS for not hating me. I did get the fuel rails working, I called MRT and got another "nipple" to hook up the lines. Mostly I needed to hook up the link for the car to run "right" I am learning how to tune it on saturday.
Also what your guys price on a MRT front mount? I am thinking about one in a few weeks, and I want to get some prices.MCL

Another good shop is Suby Tech, or now "Super Roo Repair" in Aurora (Buckley and 6th). I have known the owner, Dave, for about 5 years and he's done great on my family's Subarus when he worked for Strictly Auto. He opened up his own shop after working at Shortline Subaru for a few years, I found him again through a friend and he did awesome on my 30k maintenance for about $100 less than the cheapest dealer quote. The number is 303-343-3619.
