LF: Auto Body Shop in GVA to do Paint & Install

Hey,

Can anyone recommend an auto body shop in GVA to do paint and install on a Sportline to M sport conversion. Need the side skirts, extensions, rear bumper and diffuser painted and installed on a 2013 335i in Alpine White 300 and Gloss Black 668. I know people recommend Korva but are there any other shops worth contacting, we have so many. I tried a few places in Richmond and some of them won't even touch aftermarket parts.

Thanks,

Where are you located? I know a good shop in Cloverdale Surrey with very reasonable rates. If you're willing to come out here, let me know and I can get a quote for you.

At this point, I'm willing to drive just about anywhere in the GVA xXSupa. Korva got back to me and apparently is too busy with claims to even take on my project. After a couple of days I have yet to receive a single quote from anyone.

xXSupa please get me a quote or the contact information of the shop your recommending.

Could try TwinStar at 791 Kingsway in Vancouver. Ben and Tim are super friendly and do great work. I've had to bring our former B6 Avant and the current F48 X1 there and look brand new afterwards. They're also car guys so you'll be in good hands! http://www.twinstarcollision.ca

Good luck!

xXSupa would you be able to PM the shop name/number? I need some work done for my F30 (scratched up one side of it) and I am fairly close to Cloverdale area

No go at TwinStar, they won't do it.

Thanks though.


I'm back from vacay and ready to move on this. So far I've only got one quote and that was thanks to xXSupa. Anyone else?

Yes! Finally all done and picked up the car yesterday. Many thanks to xXSupa for coming through on this. He's a good man and it was his hookup, so if you're interested in something similar I would DM him.

Also, what do you guys think, should I hold on to my sportline bumpers and side skirts or sell them?

Which shop in Cloverdale did you end up going with? I actually work in Cloverdale so could be pretty convenient if need anything...

Thx!
