Default Good Atlanta Body Shop Needed!

Had 2 people hit me in one week, now it is time to get the car fixed. Anyone know of a good body shop in the Atlanta Area?

Damn, that's like finding a needle in a haystack. I had some work done to my Mustang when I still had it and the shop went belly up a couple of months later. They did a shitty job, too. I went to Classic Auto and Body near McCollum airport in Cobb Cty since I live in the area. They did a good job, but all they did was paint a fender: nothing too involved. They were kinda slow, too. I used them because the local CarMax sends all their work to Classic.

If you do find one, please let us locals know.

We use McDonald's Collision and have heard good things about Clayton Collision. If you go to McDonald's, talk to Steve and tell him the boys at Baranco Acura Parts sent you.

There is an AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! body shop in Jacksonville called Elite ... the guy is a jerk, but for only having one strait eye he does the best work you will ever see! His car have won Import wild at Nopi for the last three and has won 1st at up Hot Import Night's several times. He does a lot of rice work but nevertheless the work is flawless. He is a bit $$ but it comes out much better than factory.thumbup:

Honda carland has a body shop. I work at the dealership and even just got my car back from their body shop today because a friend ran into me. they do very good work, only downside is it might be a little more expensive and take some time. I would highly suggest them though.

Thanks for the replies.

1) Jacksonville is a little far to take the car to have it repaired.
2) I will Acura Carland. I had to check where you were located as one of the Acura Dealerships in Atlanta SUCKS. But I have been to Carland and been happy with the jobs they have done. Will Carland install a JDM front end?

Try Quality (Where Tom had his car painted). They are pretty good and the price is fair. That or D&D collision.

I second Mcdonalds collision in Forest Park. They do awesome work! We send all of our cars there from my work. They did my old GS-R which a mechanic from honda carland now owns...they re=painted it NSx Formula red for me...its been about 4 years now and the car STILL looks immaculate!

McDonalds Collision has also done my Type R when I hit a deer. Car came out perfect once again. Excellent work. Call them (404-363-9030) ask for Steve or Mike or Dean (the owner), and tell them TJ from Baranco Acura sent you....they'll take care of you.

I will give Mcdonalds a call. Still fairly new to Atlanta so I have to figure out where forest park is.

Also I got a great deal on a JDM SiRG front end. For those that dont know it is basically an ITR front without HID or Lip, and I think the light housing is a different color.

Had 2 people hit me in one week
In my 5 years of driving I've been hit 3 times... All the same week. The 3rd time I didn't even bother getting out of my car, I just told the lady to go away.

edit: spelling.
