Default It's BEAUTIFUL....

I got my car back and she is BEAUTIFUL!!! Richey Collision did an awesome job in repairing my Z06 after someone backed into my car. See this thread:

Without reservation, I would recommend this shop to all my friends. I received the best customer service and Chris and Karen are great to work with.

I brought my car home and Zaino'd her yesterday. OMG - is she ever sweeet!!!

Would anyone here know approx how much a touch up on my hood might cost? I've got a spider crack in the paint that happened when some idiot didn't screw down the spinner nut on the air filter. I'm not sure if it could be done with just a touch up so repainting the entire hood would be worst case scenario.
Any guesses how much this would cost? FYI, it's not any factory color and would have to be matched somehow.

Thanks for your recommendation. I am considering doing a new project car with a body kit and intend to approach them to do the work for me. Glad it turned out well for you.

I recently got a price from Carney's Corvette center for painting the hood on my C-4, to cover up some pebble dings around my headlights. $400-$450.00. :cool:

Ask for Chris. His wife Karen will probably answer the phone. Tell Chris that Brenda with the red Z06 sent you. Good luck getting her fixed.
