Bodyshop for my 635csi (Pics). Hi all, It’s about time I send the 635csi to a body shop to take care of a few imperfections. However, I have never had to deal with issues like this… and I was wondering if any of you would like to chime in and recommend trustworthy rust repair shops. I am also looking to have my front spoiler re-painted. A well done job and a good color match is what is most important to me. I also plan on having my suspension and bushings installed. Here are a few pics of the damage: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8293/7...425286fa_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7249/7...8aff5881_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7128/7...da42b4a5_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7130/7...74ed291e_b.jpg Passenger side has been repaired before my ownership.. (But it came back.) and the Driver side is just starting. So far I have been to Orient auto BMW/Audi etc restoration and repair… they’ve quoted me $300 for welding in new metal and $300 for new paint…. So $600 for each fender and they can also install my suspension setup. Much thanks Revscene, hope to see you all at the Summer 12 meet! |
I have no suggestions for where to go, but good luck! I love the old 6 series, there have been a few good deals on CL lately that I missed |
I don't know about them doing older cars, but Bavara Autohaus did a terrific color matching job on my car which had a tricky color to match/blend, and did a bang up job otherwise to my satisfaction. Their shop is also one of the best/cleanest that I have been in. |
600 actually seems pretty reasonable, especially if prep and paint is involved. My only concern would be colour matching paint that's a couple decades old now... |
have you checked how much a new fender would cost...maybe a good used one with no rust that you can just fully repaint? |
It would cost $650 from Bavarian Autosport, but I called and they said they don't carry them in stock anymore.. |
try false creek collision in burnaby. |
