    Dude ran a red light and got me pretty good. front and back drivers doors are done, and the piller and jams will need to be replaced. Its a silver 04 rex wagon and i would love to repaint the whole thing because ive seen some pretty bad blend jobs. my plan is to find someone that will save me some $$ on repairs and maybe just require a little extra to spray the whole thing. any suggestions on a good shop? has anyone done paint prep before? is it something i could do my self with little experience? i figure if prepped myself i would have a better shot at getting it painted in my price range.

    If i have to get it blended; does anyone know where i could get a good buff?

    thanks, m

    Wow, I'm glad you are ok!

    SSR Collision on HWY 9 in Alpharetta is good.

    Take care!

    Magnum Collision is supposed to be the best of the best. BIG $$$ though... but since he's paying for it why not.

    AutoGlo in Tucker is also really good. Again, not the cheapest, and not the fastest, but top notch...

    I think you'll find with most collision places you get what you pay for

    Not sure where you're located but we had some minor body work done on a silver Jeep at Woodstock Collision Center on HWY 5 (Canton HWY), they did a really good job.

    No blending just replaced the bumper and paint matched.

    Spray-Glo in Duluth did great stuff for me. Tell them I sent you.
    Of course, ArtCraft Collision is a site sponsor ;)
