My wife tried to back out of the garage in her RX with the lift gate open.
Not much damage, but it caught the lip over the license plate and crumpled the lift gate a bit. Not a scratch in the paint, but it is going to need a new lift gate and a paint match. It's white pearl, 2007 RX400.
Anyone got a body shop that's darn good on paint matching and good with Lexus?
I've used German Auto Body on Coleman, who did an incredible job on a German car I owned a few years ago. Not sure if he does work on Lexus or not, he's kind of specialized on MB, BMW, Porsches and Audis and the like.

I'm also looking for a body/paint shop, and posted the following in this thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=367687
"...Any other recommendations? I could use one as well. I did a search and dug up a lot of recommendations, but some are just 1 liners or provide no details on what work was done. I've listed all the places I found below... can anyone vouch for any of them?

I'm not sure if they are more expensive than others. However, my insurance has always covered the full amount.

I had my entire car repainted a different color at ProKraft, as well as some misc body work.
Talk to a guy named Tim, and tell him Suneet with the Lexus LS400 he repainted sent you![Wink](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

I just got my bumper replaced at Works Autobody. They were really quick, did a nice job, and were very professional. They're a bit on the expensive side, but since insurance was paying for it, I didn't really care! =) Place is pretty busy and they were fixing 3 Ferraris and a brand spanking new Porsche Carrera GT.
