Need to get car painted-where do I go?

Submitted by Feeling_Nectarine850 t3_zw73hi in rva

Who are we using these days to get our cars painted? Had an vandalism incident and insurance says I can pick where to go. Bruce’s and McGeorge don’t seem to have great reviews these days. Lots of what look like smaller places have good reviews online but not very many so that seems difficult to decide on as well. Help!

English Body Works off Midlothian. Had them do a section on a rear fender and it is perfect. CC and cash only or insurance.

If you just want it painted and you don't care too much about the paint job being perfect, and you want it done quickly and get it over with, go with Maaco. I've taken some of my older cars to them while I was restoring them and Maaco did a fine job for $1,200 or whatever was it I paid.

I've also taken some of my past cars to Affordably Body Shop over on Brook Road just past Walmart on Parham and Brook. They did a great job, however, they only ever painted one panel at a time.

On the other hand, I once had a whole car repainted because Honda recalled paint on 2006-2011 Civic, I took it to West Broad Collision Center and they did an excellent job. The paint looked great 9 years after they repainted it.

To a T in Powhatan. They do awesome body work, worth the hike out there.

My spouse and I typically go to Burleighs for body work. I was rear-ended last year and they did a good job of repainting the rear bumper cover and painting another spot on the car that my spouse requested because it had a rock chip.
