So I need a bit of body work done on my sho. Mainly the Front bumper and new rockers. Does anyone know of a good body shop in the MA RI CT area thats not too expensive. One place wanted $425 to paint my front bumper! Or does anyone have a red front bumper from a 94 in good condition.

For referance I just got a hood painted (new hood) for 150$ cash. And its flawless.

If you want to see how the guy works , try to look for his previous work , either in or out his garage.

The best don't come cheap. Kirks guy probably will cost you a bit, but he is the best around and WELL worth the money.

I have a guy painting my whole car and he replaced my passenger side inner and outer rocker. Very good work and the price is reasonable. He will work with you on the price if you remove alot of your own parts. I pretty much stripped my whole car and when it's done I will be putting it back together myself. All he did was the body work and paint, well it's being painted tomorrow morning we found another rust spot under the rear quarter panel that had to be cut out and a new piece welded in today.

I can't say he is the best but he is very good and I am very picky and I am satisfied with how the car is coming.

i'm getting my one spot on the dog leg fixed this summer, i'm worried about the results, if he does a good job i got alot more for him. My old boss at the garage I worked at referred me to him so he should be good.

I saw the work and it looked pretty good. If i take a few pictures of the bumper do you think you could show them to him and get kind of an estimate? I can take the bumper off and bring it up there. Eventually i need to get my rockers done but im hoping that Ill be able to do that next winter.

Send me a pic of the bumber and I will show him. What year is your SHO because I have a red 94 and I am going to have some paint work done in a week or so, maybe we can work something out on the paint and get a deal together. Yours would have to be a 94 or 95 so it matches.


My car just got done I will post pics tomorrow of it. He really did a good job on that rocker. My driver side rocker was replaced last year and I already have rust on it so he cut out a piece and made his own dog leg in only about an hour and a half or work, I was kind of impressed.

My car is a 94 so that would work out perfectly. Here are some pics of the damage to my bumper.

That doesn't look too bad and I will talk to him next week, he just left for Forida for a few days. If that's all you need done I am sure he would have it back to you in a day or so.
