Anyone's NSX at Los Gatos Acura?

[JoeSchmoe]

I was at Los Gatos Acura these past few days and spied someone's pre-94 silver NSX and someone else's red NSX which looks like it had driver's side damage...

Anyone know if the owners frequent this message forum?

If the owner of the damaged NSX is on the list, s/he should be aware that the Los Gatos Acura body shop does NOT have the facilities onsite to weld/work with Aluminum and may want to check a few other places (the FAQ lists an Acura certified NSX body shop located in Belmont)

Interesting. The driver's side front fender and door were replaced...

Im actually getting work done there on my car as well, but its only swapping out a rocker panel (plastic). Should be a piece of cake -- I hope.

Swapping panels is no big deal and doesn't require anything special other than proper paint technique and someone who does good work in general. All the parts of the car mentioned above are just panel swaps.

Actually repairing aluminum is a different story. If the chassis was bent I'm sure they would send you somewhere else that could handle the job.
