Bay Area Body Shop Recommendation
I live in Menlo Park and had a pretty nasty accident.
I and am extremely picky about my paint. Can someone please provide me a recommendation for a GREAT Bay Area Body/Repair Shop? I have a black car and my paint was previously nearly perfect and I want someone who will return the car to me so that I'll never even know the damage happened. I'm pretty sure I'm going to need a new door. Thanks! Chad Last edited by ChadG; 08-18-2012 at 10:43 PM. |

So far I've got recommendations for Cavallino in Palo Alto and G&M Auto Body in San Bruno. Any other suggestions or experiences with these two shops?
I was looking at Yelp reviews for Gava's in San Bruno . . . anyone have any experiences? HEEELP!!!! |

I know the owner of Callavino owns a 5th gen camaro. He would probably understand what the paint on the car means to you.

Thanks Pyro, that's going to be my first choice - checking reviews I think my second choice is going to be Gava's.

Good luck. I forgot about him. Let us know how it went. I've heard good things about his shop, and met him at De Anza autocross a few years back. Nice guy

If those body shops do not work out for you, go see Phil (he runs the place) at Image Autobody in South SF. He's a great guy to work with and the quality of work was beyond my expectations. And I am anal when it comes to my cars.

I'll post a full review tomorrow after I take some pictures, but I was VERY happy with the results from Cavallino's. I am very particular about my paint and was very anxious and am happy to say they didn't disappoint.
