Does anyone know a good bodyshop in essex area??????

Post by Mattc1981 »

Helo all

As I know that there are a few of us from essex could anyone recommend/know/work in a good bodyshop as I my housemate very kindly scraped and dented my drivers door ](*,) ](*,) , I would like it to be back to the way I had it which was perfect. So would really like to take it to a good bodyshop dont care about how much it costs cause he's paying

Cheers
Rory

Hybrid Paintworks were in Harlow but have now moved to Ware (just inside Herts). He done some work on my Evo a couple of months ago and the job was faultless. http://www.hybridpaintworks.com/ Ive used several others in the area but hybrid I found were the best. Job was complete on time and to a high standard. If your not sure about a paintshop then when you head down for a quote you can ask to look at work recently completed.

Its always worth traveling to find a bodyshop that your happy with leaving your car there. Make sure you do your homework frist. Even big companies are known to mess you around with finish dates.

thanks for some of the info guys will start to do some research on the companies suggested :thumleft: :thumleft:

Looks like it will be going through insurance as the price is approx 500 quid + VAT so at least I will have a courtesy car while the work is being done the worst thing would be for me not to have a car to travel back home (scotland) over christmas

If you're going through the insurance then try http://www.dws-bodyworks.co.uk - many bodyshops and first rate work. (Even an MR2 in the homepage pic ;) )
