Hi,
I need a good paint and body shop in Orange County California. Had a slight miss-hap in the NSX :frown:

Can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance.

If you don't mind travelling far, you can go to San Pedro Autoboy.

Quoted from FAQ:

They have the most knowledge and experience in repairing NSX bodywork, and is the "unofficial" body shop of Honda/Acura of America.

They know NSXs inside out. They know how to work with aluminum. They know the various nuances of the different colors the NSX comes in. These are all important factors in choosing a body shop.

They painted all factory NSX race cars, including the World Challenge car of Peter Cunningham. (310)831-8456 -

highly recommended. If you want show quality results coming out looking like "glass". It comes with a price though, but Mike is the man to do it...tell him Hack sent cha for the hook ups.

Be aware that if you have AAA and use it at Spectrum. The 2 don't play nice, and it's mostly on the AAA's side. Have a heart to heart with Ed, the GM before you do the work about their current relationship with AAA. I had some work done there last year, and I had to get in contact with AAA president's office to get resolution. It's ridiculous how AAA would tried to patronize me, a long time customer and put up walls because of their own business dealings. At the end, AAA didn't want dirty laundry to be aired, or get involve with class action, so they elect to be 'helpful' when that was what they shouldn't done in the first place.

Story is too long and too nasty to go into details, but my recommendation is to talk to the shop and get a CLEAR idea of how they handle AAA insurance claims today.
