Need a decent bodyshop/garage
Long story short, my accord type-r was vandalised start of March. Every panel keyed including roof and headlights. Insurers have said its a CAT C write off so im buying it back and getting her repaired. Also boot was bent when they attempted to steal the spoiler, also jumped on bonnet. Im in the process of sourcing couple new doors which were dented, a new bonnet and new boot. So what i need now is a decent bodyshop to respray my car and to possibly replace the roofskin (i THINK it needs replacing, its got ripples in where the key marks have slightly dented it).

Im in Rainworth, whos the best?

Cheers
Ste

Sorry to hear that, thats terrible!

I use a man called Alan he is in Kirkby in Ashfield, hes a top bloke who does a top job, Al on here knows more about the location as I only know how to get there. I think its on Southwell Road in K-In-A.

Hes doing my Dads Porshe at the min, and he did my old Puma.

RE: Need a decent bodyshop/garage
Is this the one that was on the white Rota's?

If so I loved that car when you put pics up a while ago, its proper gutting someone has done that, you must have really upset someone.

Best thing to do is see it as every cloud has a silver lining, because when it comes out of the bodyshop, especially if you go for the same colour it'll look mint.

Rassssssssspppp

RE: Need a decent bodyshop/garage
yeah as emma said reallly a guy on southwell lane kirkby is the only man i would use because he does a good job and is the kind of guy if he wasnt 100% happy with the job (even if you think it loks 100%) he wont let it leave his bodyshop


very reasonably priced too


pm me if you want more details mate

RE: Need a decent bodyshop/garage
Well my car got covered in brake fluid not long back and I got a full respray for £300 off a man called Roy in Kirkby, depends how "perfect" you want it to be, I think what he did for me is sh*t hot for 300 quid.

If you wanted it doing by him and say I referred you to him when you ask for a quote you'll get it cheap like I did 'cos it's my uncle's mate Icon_wink

Sorry to hear about your car Ste

I'd also recommend P&L in Huthwaite. They did a top job on my Mini Icon_cool
