I am very happy with their work. I was at the Norhampton, PA car show and the guy who actually did the work stopped over. He loves what he does and he said that he actually enjoyed doing the stripes on the car.

Oh, if you do decide to go there... let them know that you saw the pics of my car. I think that would make them know it was worth the hassle of doing it.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay? I know it was more than just a paint job, but I'm curious since it seems like your shop did a very nice job.
I paid a little more then $2500. Keep in mind that also included redoing the front Shinoda chin spoiler (Chipped to crap), and also the Legend Rear spoiler ( thanks to UPS, the corners where crap). The spoiler looks as good as new and you would never know how bad it was.

I cannot complain. I got a quality job from them, they where honest and up-front with everything, and it looks darn good.

Hey Fryguy, I am curious where you ordered you legend spoiler from? I met John Temple the other day who is the maker of the legend parts and he mentioned the problem with the corners being beat up. He mentioned one place in particular that was really bad at packing them for shipping and I am curious if that is where you bought it? If you bought it from them it is most likely the shippers fault and not UPS.

I ordered the spoiler from GEF. I have ordered fiberglass parts in the past and they always have taken some type of beating. I will admit, the packaging that the spoiler was in was poor, but I have seen much worse.

That was the one he mentioned was giving him alll the problems. He said they had been responsible for somewhere around a dozen damaged. I just got the front splitter from him, getting it painted to match my stripes and installed next week. I can't wait.
