If you ever need any body/paint work done, I would suggest GX Auto just off of nimitz highway.

What do you need? I wouldn't call myself an expert, but I'm also not sure if there are any experts on the island. I do all the work on my car myself. There is a vette place on dillingham, but I've never been there. But please let me know what you need done. I may be able to help you out.
