They've pretty much repainted almost every body panel on my C4 over the years, and you can't even tell. Everything matches perfectly, which isn't easy for a 19 year old car. They've done my other cars too.

They're great with working with insurance companys, and will take care of everything. They can even get you a discount on a rental car if your insurance won't cover one...

Tell'em Jon w/ the Vettes sent you...

LOL. I always drive by that shop, and have always wondered what the GTA in their name stood for (never been there though). It's just several blocks away from HP Quality Body Shop...

Since you're recommending them, I assume you're very satisfied with their work, but how their pricing? I know you get what you pay for, but it's nice to have a quality work at a reasonable price, especially if you're paying out-of-pocket...

cuisinartvette, whomever you choose, let us know how it goes. It's always nice to have a few shops to choose from.

I'd like to recommend Doug's Custom Paint and Body in Chatsworth,

http://dougscustoms.com/

They did my aftermarket Tigershark front and WCC raised hood. I thought there work was stellar.

Going to be using Dougs this time around he does some superb work.

Thanks for the pms and responses.

pappy...my first experience many yrs ago with GTA was good.
Quality finish paint detailing was better than factory.



After the last one (12+ yrs later) I would never send my enemy in there.
Burned every bit of paint on the car, rest was so bad I dont know where to start. Thank God the car was leased.
They knew it and could have cared less.

Doug's is very good.
I haven't been to GTA in a while, but if Glenn is still running the place I am sure he would have made it right. Sorry you had a bad experience though.

Update


Recieved truck back today

Black paint

Finish is nothign short of incredible and do know a little something about paint. Bodywork is perfect so is the finish.

Have had a number of black cars done over the yrs nothing compares with this.

Expected less of a job being as it was an insurance job

He was quick, no bs or drama.

He will get my next paintjob for sure
