Default Recommend Body Shop for fender and quarter pulling ?

Hi all,

I am looking for a body shop that will do a solid job of pulling my rear quarters and doing some work on my front fender ?

Thanks all..I am located in Brooklyn but willing to travel a fair amount if the work is top notch ..

Billman for sure And he has a buddy who does the best paint work at fair pricing. I'd gladly drive 7hrs for their expertise.

are you looking to pull all 4 to a point where it does body damage, then have a body guy re-do the paint and make it all look nice?

Hi Billman...I want to pull a fair amount..I would say maybe a half inch..the size I want to fit in the back is 17x9+25 with a 245/40/17 tire..if body work is going to make it look perfect then yes I am willing to spend a few extra bucks on the body work just want someone to do it right..

you can fit those with a roll and negative camber.

I kind of want a set up similar to Danio's ( a member on here with a GPW )..he had 17x9+22 with 245/40/17 Dunlop SS, but camber was only 3.0...I want to retain full function therefore the max camber I want is 3.0..

i think ray (s-factor) can take care of you and get you within the range that you want. he can cut/roll all 4 fenders for you. then you just need an alignment.

17x9 +25 with a 245/40/17 tire are a bit too much for the OEM fenders without giving it a lot of camber. Just to give an example, Billy's TE37s are 17x9 +22 and he has to do extensive work to make them fit.
