Nice pix.

Did you do your whole car or just the new parts


I had just picked up my car last week from autowerks.
They did a great job painting my whole car.

I really wanted to do the whole car but I just didn't have the money at them moment but I will get the rest repainted later. I just had the front and rear bumpers and all the other parts done. Seems to be excellent work on their part.

I did see a while GS last week there. Was that yours?

Nice job on the car. Just one thing though. I think they installed your TTE lip wrong. The passenger side does not look right. Even the driver side is a little off but not as obvious as the passenger side.

JTGS400 ... Looks good

Also ... contact Steve Ganz to get a set of the 2001+ taillights ... it will enhance the looks of the rear even more!

Would you recommend Auto Werks? I need my rear bumper repainted and I'm looking for a body shop that's honest and does a good job around the San Gabriel Valley area.

What color is your car?

They did a good job with my whole car. If you're considering autowerks. Ask for Peter.
