Paint Shop Recommendations? [GTA]
Anyone here have a good recommendation for a paint shop in the GTA? I'm looking to purchase a 5axis spoiler which then needs to be painted in Whiteout/SWP and I'd like to make sure it gets done professionally.

My Whiteout got hit while it while it was parked, and I got a fender replaced and paint matched very well. My Opticoat guy was pretty impressed, so much he couldn't tell which fender was replaced.
The place I went to was Assured Oaktown in Oakville (since it was through insurance). However, I'd also recommend Unibody collision in Mississauga too. |

May I ask why you also recommend Unibody? Have you had work done there as well? |

Not me personally, but I've seen some cars restored from terrible condition to brand new from their shop.
You can look at some of their work on the Toronto Subaru Club forums (they're a vendor there) |

Velocity Auto Body is reasonable priced and should get the colour matched up.
Original Auto Refinishing 416-744-9090 is also very good but there priced quite high and take a lot of time. Luxury Auto Body in Etobicoke, very good work but also pricey. |

Thanks for all the suggestions. I will contact all of them to find out which ones know how to correctly match with the SWP/Whiteout of this car. I always hear nightmares of people getting the paint to match.

I'd recommend CarTech Autobody in Markham. They paint matched a wing for my WRB BRZ and also installed for me. Their pricing is good too.
