’68 Green Vinyl Top Mustang Restoration

Posted in Complete Paint, Restoration, Showcar

This gorgeous ’68 pony was brought in with the paint chipping and several places. The owner wanted to restore it to its previous glory. We ended up stripping the entire paint (to reveal a rainbow of paint under the green coat). We sand blasted all the panels and replaced both quarter panels. We then re-carpeted the interior, replaced the headliner, and had a new vinyl top put on, after painting all the jambs and the rest of the car. The result was truly beautiful to see…

The teardown.

The build-up.

When the owner came to pick up this truly iconic muscle car, he was more than ecstatic. Another classic back on the road.

Right Corner Damage on 2012 VW GTI

Posted in Collision Repair, Paint

This brand new GTI was brought to us with some decent right front corner damage. It’s really sad to see a brand new car get that kind of damage, so we promised to get it back to brand new condition. We ended up replacing the front bumper, right headlight, right fender, the hood, as well as both the A/C condenser and radiator. The car came out looking as if it just rolled off the showroom floor.

When the owner picked up the car he was extremely happy to see his new ride looking like it should, and we were happy we could deliver on our promise. All parties (customer, shop and car) came out happy, and that’s the most we could ask for.

Insurance Job on 2006 Mustang GT

Posted in Collision Repair, Paint

Our nearby neighbor brought us his 2006 Mustang GT after he had an unfortunate accident with a neighbor of his. We helped work through the insurance claim with him and began repairs on the car. Luckily the damage wasn’t too extensive and was contained to the quarter panel. We repaired the damage to the quarter panel and the wheel-well, blended the door, roof rail and gas tank lid, and detailed the car.

One Shiny Red Pony

We knew the owner loves the car (keeps it extremely clean, no nicks or dents anywhere) so we took great pride in getting his “baby” back to perfect shape. The Mustang came out looking great, lines were perfect and the color was beautiful, nothing more you can ask for, and we hope that the owner agrees with us.

No Job Too Small on 2013 Lexus GS350

Posted in Customization, Paint

The owner brought us this elegant 2013 Lexus GS350 to put an aftermarket body kit on it to give it the sporty look the new Lexus F-line. The kit had a front bumper lip, rear bumper lip, and to rocker moldings. We fitted everything and painted the kit to match the pearl white of the car.

Pearly White

I have to say that the new kit definitely adds to the aggressive styling of the new Lexus. We hope that the owner enjoys the new look of his Lexus as much as we did.

Custom Body Kit on 2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon

Posted in Customization, Paint

Rich brought us his 2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon when he wanted to put a custom body kit on it. The set came with 2 new fender flares, 2 new quarter flares, and new rockers and step pads. The new body kit made the Jeep look rugged, as it should, yet a bit more streamlined then the stock flares and step pads. We painted the main pieces silver to match the car, while accenting them with flat black, per Rich’s wishes.The Jeep came out great. The new step pads add more of a heavy duty feel to it, while the new flares give it that sporty look. Rich thanks for bringing us your Rubicon and hope you enjoy driving it as much as we did working on it.
