I used to live in a Big City" but then moved to the "Country" about 5 years ago. Got tired of having to drive down 2 sets of Mountains to get estimates from Body Shops.
I wanted to kep my Money in the County in which I live in.
So I decided to get Estimates from the 3 Shops that were within 20 miles of me.
Thie shop I chose has been there for 9 years and has kept the same employess for that long also. Nicer bunch of guys, I couldn't find. Down to Earth and pulled no punches. When the Estimate went from $3500.00 up another $500.00 because they found "Worm Holes", he not only SHOWED me said holes, but also took pictures and e-mailed them to me. On the Passenger side, there must have been upwwards of 45 of them!!!
