Hi All,
I went by Paul Petrone yesterday and they seemed pretty busy with BMW's everywhere.
I did get a quote and it was 1400 to painy my pieces. (trunk, Hood, Trunk Finisher, Rear M5 bumper, Front Driver's side fender).
I think I can honestly find it a little cheaper.
Another shop, my friend's shop, he said he can do it for 1300, but i'll have to wait till next week to start.
I kind of wanted to drop it off by this week and get it done by next.
Does anyone know of any good shops I can try to go 2?

Go to Hempstead Auto Collision in Hempstead NY. Ask for Vinny tell him Anthony sent you. He is the guy that painted my roof and its flawless. He is the type of guy that dosen't want his customers to come back so, he does the job right.

Thanks, I'm going to try to call him today to see what time they close. I'm stuck at work all day till 5. And I know traffic to that area is going to be a drag. If he closes at 7, I might be able to make it.

i know an excellent bodyshop in the bronx/ mtvernon border named precision. it is an older italian gut that only works on high end exotics and luxury cars. he matches paint 100% and is real good. he takes parts and trim off to paint then he reassembles!! he might do int for around 1100.00-1200.00.
