Anyone know of a body shop.
 
Does anyone know of a good place I could get a whole fender painted white out and for how much usually? I want a good body shop that some of you guys know that's good?

Edit: around markham thornhill maybe or anywhere close!!

I would suggest adding a city/area to your search. I have a great referral but he's in London ON

I'm repeating myself here but, if you have any high-end dealers (RR. Maserati, Ferrari, etc.) in your area there's a good chance that they might not have their own body shop as the volume of cars they work with is so small. That doesn't change the fact they quite often have a need for some body work to be done. You can be sure they know who the best in the area is. Just ask them who they use and go from there.

I would honestly recommend going to an authorized Toyota paint and body shop because our WHITEOUT paint is a multi step coat (pearl white) and its very hard to match.

Ive had multiple shops try to match the whiteout but ended ip spending more than if i just went to toyota in the first place

Don't ask Toyota unless you know someone they will charge you an arm and a leg (they charge $850 for window tint- they go to a shop next door lol)

People in the GTA go to velocity. They work on sports cars usually. Ask for Barry, tell him Will referred you. It's about $280-350.

I know a body shop owner at Heritage road that deal with a few whiteout FRS repair this year. I think they're all front bumper repair as I remember.

I worked automobile insurance claims for 25 years and I can promise you because a dealership has a body shop that doesn't have a thing to do with how good the body shop is. I know there are always exceptions but generally speaking dealership body shops are not that desirable.

Minovsky 06-27-2013 04:29 AM

hmm yeah they are quite questionable.. with other things that are simple they could fail to do.. the only thing good from a dealership is just getting our cars i guess =.="
