Local paint shop recommendation
I had my Z accent painted under the lower facia and rear bumper by a company called West Coast Collision Center in Mountlake Terrace (Jeff Stoneman, owner). They did a satisfactory job but I did a poor job of picking the accent color; it has too much maroon and not enough red and it clashes with my car color. My error.
I paid over $800 for the paint job and went back to discuss a re-paint but his office manager basically dismissed me like I was a bum (read "not very friendly person"). I didn't ask for nor expect a free paint job, that’s not my style. I was more interested if they might make me a deal since I'd just had work done there. She took my number and said Jeff would give me a call but apparently he was not interested either as I never heard from him. I should have done my homework because I realize now they are just a volume paint shop. Okay fair enough. I was out of my league, I picked the wrong paint, they performed as promised and certainly don't owe me a thing. I’m a big boy and that’s the end of that story. I really like my car and want to have the paint corrected by a pro who is as interested in my satisfaction as he is in making a living. I realize paint color is very subjective but I need a painter who is an expert with a trained eye that can guide me through the selection process and give me good ideas instead of just taking my check. Yea I’m pissed and a little bitter but it's totally my fault; I’ve been around the block a few times and I approached this with closed eyes. I would appreciate any suggestions as to a great custom paint shop in this area owned by a person interested in his work, not in how big his boat is. |
im taking my car to paramount center collision in fife, ive seen the work they did on my cousins civic si (some kind of black with blue metalic)
A GTR owner recommended me Queen City Auto Rebuild in Redmond. apparently they work on plenty of exotics. also, pics of what a flying tent can do http://www.the370z.com/track-autocro...nts-event.html |
I've heard that JMI in Arlington does good work. I'm planning to take my bodykit to Bel Red auto rebuild in Everett.
