Legit bodyshop? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

On my way to work today I was stopped at a light and a guy in the car next to me spotted the dent/scratches I got above my rear wheel. He went on to say that he works for a bodyshop and that he will fix it for $250 with paint and everything.

Seemed a little shady to me. He wanted me to pull over to talk about it but I told him I was on my way to work. He said he could come out to my work to do the repair. I told him I'd give their shop a call. (not going to)

When I got to work I asked a guy if he had ever heard of the guys body shop and he said no and that it was probably a scam and they'd do terrible work. I don't doubt him but I was just wondering... Has anything like this ever happened to anybody else?

Also, does anybody in the Orlando area know of a good place to get my damage fixed?

Thanks

What's the name of the place? May be a scam, but you never know. Could be a repair place that works with dealerships and such.

the guy probably primarily does mobile work and only leases a space at a shop for big jobs. I have used a guy like that. $250 is not bad.

I just googled them and apparently they are nationwide. Maybe I will give them a call. $250 sounds like a good deal and the guy said they work with deductables. I am just worried about someone doing a subpar job :/
