Looking for a fair priced, quality body shop in Baltimore...
after a little over 2 years of owning my car, i realized how unforgiving parking in the city can be. fortunately, i have a place to park now so i dont have to worry (at least not as much) about people smashing into the bumper. i've got a lot of scratches and marks on the car and looking to get it repainted. originally i only wanted the damaged areas painted but i think getting the entire thing painted might be cheaper. can anyone hook me up or refer me to a quality body shop with good prices in Southeast Baltimore? and btw, has anyone had any experience with Earl Scheibb- they are pretty cheap but are they any good? thanks

Getting the car entire repainted will devalue it significantly. Try a good detail shop first, see what they can do. A lot can be done with some touch-up and wetsanding.

I would tell anyone to go to C&F Autobody in Severn. They did a good amount of work on my car and every single thing came out perfect to the T. Check out my post about them! https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=224209

i went to the dealership yesterday and the guy suggested that i go a detailer first and see what they can do for me. to paint my rear bumper, which is where most the damage is, will cost 400-450. also does waxing the car regularly keep the clear coat from fading? watch, right after i get my car repainted some b@stard is gonna crash right into it

Hey man if you pm me you could come by I'll take a look at it. I worked for a body shop and did detailing for a few years while in college. I am pretty damn good with touchup, wetsanding, and buffing with high speed rotary. This offer goes out to anyone in the Baltimore area....

ok, so i've vistited a few bodyshops so far and... its gonna cost me some money. the thing is there are alot of little scratches all over the hood, roof, and trunk probably from the cleacoat fading. the guys at the dealership said the warranty wouldnt cover it. but after taking it to a couple body shops, they are all telling me that those areas should be covered. the dealership i go to, Jerry's, is usually really cool about everything and i hope they take care of this for me. if they don't tho, should i go about and fight this with mitsubishi?
