Default Shop Review|DFW - J&M Paint & Body

J&M Paint & Body
2244 Larson Lane
Suite 107
Dallas, TX 75299

The shop is run by a good guy named Jose. He's done a few jobs for me in the past, and I've always had great results. I just picked up my car last night from getting my roof repainted. I had it painted black two years ago, and the original guy used too much hardener. This led to the paint cracking and flaking off pretty bad. I took it to Jose who stripped the paint down to metal and resprayed it to perfection. He also painted some valve covers and battery covers all for a very reasonable price.

He's done several full resprays for 16niss show cars, and all have come out immaculate. I've referred several other auto enthusiasts to get miscellaneous jobs done such as body kits, fender benders, fender rolling, and touch ups. He can do factory color, custom mixed colors, custom pearls, or any combination you can think of.

He's located right down the street from Lamborghini of Dallas (Royal/35). Give him a call at 214-392-2127 and tell him William referred you. He may not always pick up, as he may be in the paint booth or something. So best bet is to call back 15-30 minutes later if you don't get an answer.

Thanks for the info, William! I'm looking for a shop to use within the next 6-12 months.

Gato found an awesome one too. It's nice to be able to shop the work around and see who can give you the best deal with minimum fuss.

I'm at the shop now waiting on him to get back here. He quoted $150 to roll my 2 rear fenders. Not having done this before...is that reasonable? Please answer quickly if you've had this done before since I'm sittin' here.

It's not great, but not high either. About normal.

Thanks for the quick response, combfilter. Looks like we're not looking at a referral discount here, but I don't mind paying a fair price for work as good as William described.

I'll let y'all know...

Unhappy

Said he'd return to the shop in 40 minutes, and an hour and a half later he'd still not made it back. It happens with traffic around here, but I had a class to make and gave up and rolled out. No report.
