    Collision 2 days ago--need shop recs in the PDX area

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I was involved in a minor accident on Monday morning, however there is some damage the needs to be addressed.

    Just wondering what shops you guys recommend. As per Oregon law, I can choose any shop, so let's hear some options.

    Thanks!

    Yes, they've done some Reiger bits for clients.
    They do a lot of muscle car paint/restoration and stuff as well.

    Gotcha. My last email must be burning a hole in your inbox.

    x3 precision. They use all OEM by default, and the are willing to do aftermarket.

    They put me back together after getting nailed in the ass which then pushed me through a Camry that I was stopped behind.

    I'd say they did a pretty good job overall; I had to do some handholding when it came to sourcing some extra bits (RS4 grill, S4 rear bumper & E-Code headlights) but I attribute that mostly to the fact that they are muscle car guys and don't really "get" the euro car market.

    I did have to go back after I picked the car up because they couldn't figure out where to put the long torx drive bolt that holds the headlight in, so they just left them out entirely. Took about 30 minutes of searching through the dude's toolbox before we found 'em.

    Honestly, if I had to go through it again, I'd call Colin at Lanphere's Canyon Road Auto Body; they do a great job plus he's an enthusiast so his eye's won't glaze over when you start talking about anything aftermarket.

    Sorry to hear that Eric. They should have called us to ask.

    Colin Kopetski at Canyon Rd is another good source for sure. It's great to know that they'll now do any vehicle beyond Honda stuff.
