Default Body Shops in San Fernando Valley?

Hey CL,

Does anyone know any good body shops in the SFV or near it. I went to a couple in the valley but wasn't happy with any of them.

I know EXE.UCF10 recommends Backyard Creations but it's pretty far from me. It's in Rosemead. I've heard this shop a few times on this forum so I'm assuming they do good work. It's just too far.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks DK

Trust me... It's worth the drive to go to a reputable body shop. I've had one too many bad experiences with Mickey Mouse shops. I drive from Studio City to Diamond Bar to get my body work/paint done at K&W Autobody. They do good work and it's really not THAT far. I've had good work done at Backyard as well, but I believe they've closed their doors a while ago.

GL,
Noz

oh thanks. Didn't know they closed down. Not sure where to go to. I do want to go to a reputable shop. Wondering if there was any around the valley. I guess I'm going to have to do a little drive.

These guys repaired a hole punched in the rear bumper of our Camry in two days. We still can't tell if it was repaired or replaced. Then they detailed the whole car in & out. Ask for the great coffee mug! When we paint the SC, it will be done here.
