Does anyone have experience with these two body shops, specifically body kit installation? Thanks in advance.

My neighbor is both their business partner. He gets his car done from both places. He just recently brought his cars home and the paint job and the work are AWESOME. (Bronze Viper with Snake scale skin racing stripes, Yellow 67 Camaro and Blue and silver Civic.
As I recall he said Autowerks does custom and Gold Coast doesn't.

If your looking for local I can suggest Boyce Body Werks in Naperville or Batavia. Lexus Certified and great work. They have helped me a few times and a few members that Im aware of.

Thanks everyone. I've decided on A&L. Its a little far, but I think they are more experienced and offer more flexibility. They have some great looking M3s in their lot, always a good sign.

A&L does nice work. Some of my buddies work out of their shop, maybe I'll stop in and check it out if youre hanging around there. When are you going in?
