Oh. I heard they do good work. Do they do more high-end cars? I saw an Autowerks plate on a replica Knight Rider car driving around Willow Rd. Had the dash, red lights and everything. Looked CLEAN!

I've heard just the opposite.

I've heard many cars coming out of Bodywerks (what Autowerks used to be known as) come out missing delivery dates, and with sub-par work done.

That's funny because bodywerks still exists and has a different owner then autowerks. Where did you hear this?
