Recommended Body Shop to Paint FRP
Anyone know a good shop in Redlands area that can paint FRP and guarantee paint match?
I went to a local shop that does great work but refused to paint my fenders because they are FRP. She said the paint bubbles every time??
I did some research and it does need a certain paint, but prep shouldnt be that bad for my fenders.
Im mostly concerned about paint match and them taking good care of my car.
Downforce 30 mm wide fenders...fitment is near perfect without even trying any adjustments
Thanks

wow.. ive never heard of a shop turning down a job based on FRP.. u mustve went to a crappy shop. they prob mainly do insurance jobs.
try any other shop and i bet you wont have that problem. frp doesnt require a special paint. possibly more flex agent but thats more for extra flexible parts.

By special paint I meant Non oil based paint, which from what I read, is not used on auto paint usually. I did some research on FRP and It does seem to need special attention when doing prep and paint.
But yeah, the shop mainly insurance claims .
