Looking for a paint and body shop...
I am looking to get my 2002 coupe painted and a little custom body work done (I want to shave the front license plate). Can anyone suggest a good body shop in Central Florida that does good work in urethane?
Thanks...

If you want to travel to Pinellas County, i have seen some good work come out of Superior Auto body on corvettes of all gen's and other exotics.

Superior is awesome, and RPE here in Bradenton has a paint/body guy that has done cusoms forever, but close to you is one of the best with vettes around, Robbie at Corvette Masters: http://www.vetteweb.com/features/vem...tte/index.html

A place I'm going to have one of my Zs done up is a place called Wendell's Auto Care, in Lakeland. I've seen a few of the cars he has done (the guy does a lot of insurance work/collision repair) and I haven't been able to find any seams on the bodywork or paint, cars look like they weren't ever wrecked.
He quoted me $1500 for paint and rust repair (putting in new rockers, quarter panels). Might be worth giving him a call, get a ballpark price.
I don't think he has a web site so per his card:
JR
1350 Olive St.
Lakeland, FL 33815
863-899-9602

That's not a bad price, that's the entire car painted? I am wanting to get my Falcon resprayed and really can't afford more then $2,500 for a quality spray.
Post pics when you get the car sprayed.
