ORIGINAL: Stalllion_25

I live in New Jersey. The guy who im getting them done by had just opened up his body shop right next door to my Die-Hard mechanic (the guy seriously makes dreams come true, especially with the $$) Anyway, he had sent a car over there to be painted and had some body work done. he did such a good job i aksed if he would do my lowers and he quoted me $200. He just started, so hes tryin to pick up as much work as he can. I really appreciate the help thought fellas. Im gonna paint em!

awesome! good choice.

Post pics up when you get your audi back

yo stallion, could you get me this guy's information...does he have a website?

if he quotes me anything near 200 dollars for painting the lowers on my b6, he'll have another customer.

Nah, he doesn't have a website. Its a small body shop in Lodi, New Jersey. I was real skeptical at first but when i saw the work he did to this old Jaguar, he made a believer out of me. It was $50 each runner and bumper. Just remember though, silver is the EASIEST to duplicate. Other colors he may charge a bit more, but im not sure.

Yeah, Lodi isn't far from me and for $200, thats cheaper than doing it myself. Let me know his address/phone number. Maybe the three of us can get a "discount" hah if we all have it done?

stallion seems to have vanished.

i don't know if this is legit. the price seems exceptionally low, and the fact that he hasn't gotten back to any of us with the information makes me wonder...

something seems off.
