As I look through the yellow pages of this town of 35k I see about 15
different body shops in town. Besides asking around at work to see if
anyone's got some work done and how they liked it, how can I determine which
one to use? I want to get quality work done, not budget work. Dealer shop or
independent place? Should I ask them if they've done B13 Sentras or NXs
before? Or just Nissans? Are there some key questions I should help me
determine if they are competent or not?
*Any* advice would be helpful for me. I know of a quality bodyshop back in
my hometown, but it's 45 miles away and my NX has no front end and not much
passengerside fender material so I don't think it would be wise/legal to
drive it all the way there in that condition. Here's how it is now:
And there is no radiator support up front, just the driver's headlight
support is still there in front along with the condenser and stuff. If you
knew of a quality body shop 45 miles away with the car in that shape would
you bite the bullet and drive it there? Say with a car in front of you
driving the speed limit with it's flashers on? (2 lane road most of the way)
