Another option for you Jon -

Cheam Motors have an excellent body shop that they use (I think they are in the Dorking area). I can vouch for the quality of their work and paint match (The firm is independent and work on all makes of cars). Contact Jim Childs on 020 8394 2263 (www.cheammotors.co.uk) - he should be able to help and I would think that it would be possible to deal direct with the bodyshop if you didn't want to go through the dealer.

Cheers

ta

my problem is that ive no experience of bodywork work - so i dont know a good price from a rip off. I guess all i can do is wait to see if i can get panels cheap then phone up a few folk.

But, i'm quite sure that they'll not be able to help without seeing the car, so whoever i drive the car to will be the one that gets the work

oh well

Question

After deciding to park the integra in the tyres at craners yesterday (check out the track day forum...), I'm now in need of a good bodyshop - and a cheap source of honda parts. Looking at pretty much everything on the drivers side, but just panels rather than structural.

So any recommendations, I'm in East London, but I'll travel to be sure that I'll get a good job at a decent price...

Thanks

jon

Although I am looking for a body shop in north london, I know of a great one in southend if you are willing to travel.

call Ultimate finishers on 01702 711708 ask for ricky, and say that Adam sent you. If not an insurance claim, his prices are normally stunning.
