Default Body shop in San Diego?

Can anyone recommend a good body shop in San Diego? I need some front end repairs and a paint job. I'm looking for quality. Any recommendations appreciated. Thanks.

Hey CThree,

I have used Hensen & Son right there in Escondido a few times over the years. They have done work on some of my family's cars. Not cheap, but good stuff. I have not taken the S to them, so I don't know if they have specific experience with one. Their quality of work was always excellent.

I DID take my S to Custom Auto Body on Raytheon in Kearny Mesa. Good job on some front end work, although they left a trim piece sitting in the passengers seat and they couldn't figure out where it came from. Turned out it was a cover for the rear view mirror.

They also would NOT cut me a deal recently when I wanted them to re-paint my front bumper (too many chips). I wanted the "repeat customer" hook-up and they still wanted almost $300 for the job - with ME pulling the bumper and bringing it to them. I was disappointed in that. Maybe Hensen will do my bumper?

I would give my business to either one again with Hensen first, especially since it is in your area.

West Coast Customs pimped that Hi-Jet, I'm sure they'll do even better on an S2K!
