I am still finishing up my experience with this shop, but figured
I'd let people know a little bit for those looking now...
The guys at the shop on Colorado Blvd. are quite friendly and willing to
please... Plus, if you go to their website, you can get a coupon for $100 off
any job valued at $500 or more. Just ensure you read the disclaimers in case
there are any; if none, use it towards your deductible! Or, just to save some
cash off the part of your car you may choose to fix while your car is already
in the shop for insurance-covered repairs (which is what I did, after getting
the manager's approval, since the insurance job was technically charged
separately from my less than $500 request).
Before dropping my car there, I did check three other places for prices. LA Car
Guy beat them all and offers a 5-year guarantee on paint jobs. The only
drawback is that they are sometimes slower than they predict--which can add up
for those paying for their rental, as a three-day turnaround estimate turns
into six.
And, sometimes their work is imperfect... but, they fix their work at their
cost, so it evens out in the end usually (still waiting, since my car came back
with a couple new small dents upon return from a corrected paint job--first job
was inaccurate in color, second one was PERFECT!). The guy did say he would talk
to his manager to ameliorate the issue and went on to help me put on my license
plate and change a dead brake light. So, service with a smile... And endurance
in getting the job done right makes me give them 4-stars so far... |
