So I've decided that the white primer has to go. I am looking for someone to do some body work (attach fiberglass flares, smooth some dents) and paint the car for a reasonable price. I alternate between San Luis Obispo, Ca and the San Francisco area, so I am looking for someone in either place (between or near would work too) who does a good job.
Any suggestions?
i think san luis autobody does a good job. a fellow member used to work there, but i am not positive on what their quality is because i have never seen their work
Talk with sww914 here in Los Osos. He's done paint & body for a number of years, and can probably tell you who is good.
This is the color he wants:
With GT flares & duckbill spoiler if I remember correctly.
so.... what's the pantone code for awesome?
i love that m3. i want one.
Steve did the bodywork on my car and it came out very nice.
if i am thinking correctly, steve doesnt do autobody/paint anymore. He works as a machinist now, but im sure he would know where to go.
Don used to work at SLAB and then he became a machinist. His first job in the SLO area was working for me at a bodyshop that I managed.
He is now a machinist, a brilliant one who builds the 914-6 oil tanks, filler necks, billet intermediate plates, Boxster caliper adapters, 914-6 hard oil lines, and pretty much anything else that you could possibly imagine, but he doesn't do bodywork anymore.
I am Steve Willie, I've never worked as a machinist or at SLAB.
I do body and paint and I haven't quit yet.
I once worked for Pat, the manager/part owner of SLAB 20 years ago at another shop. I did, however apply for a job at SLAB once but they wouldn't pay me enough, only about 65% of what I had been making but that's hardy relevant. I just wanted to clear this up.
In our area it is difficult to find a shop to work on older cars or do complete paint jobs. I only know of 1 shop that does it and 1 that maybe does, but I can't recommend either of them. I can take this opportunity to recommend myself. I've sent the author of this thread a PM.
Thanks to everyone who recommended me!
sorry Steve. I am really bad with names!
everything i said prior about the machinist applies to Don, not Steve. lol
Beautiful color! I love to spray bright colors, orange, red, yellow, green, blue. They look so cool flowing on to the car.
