Looking to get a wave out and repaint rear bumper also probably most of the the left side. It is a body shop job that could not do the job right. By the way never take your car to Arseen auto body in San Jose.

Try Los Gatos AutoBody off Shelbourne Way in Los Gatos.
They did my whole JDM conversion, worked on my friends M3 after he crunched practically every body panel, plus around 5 other friends have brought their Mercedes, BMW's, S2000's, etc... to them.
Their place is one of the largest shops in this area. They are recommended by Acura of Los Gatos, Ferrari of Los Gatos, Hummer of Los Gatos, Honda of Los Gatos, etc... plus they work very well with AAA, State Farm, USAA, etc...
Also the owner of the shop (Scott) is huge in the American drag racing scene. He has a 6sec Nova at the shop and competes and are friends with the like of Tony Christion, etc... They do all his custom body work their, as well as fabricating almost anything. I highly recommen them. In fact I will be going by their today or tomorow to drop off a friends R for a new front.

Here's some pictures of before and after on my friends M3:

Rboosted - what the exact name of the shop, I called information and they could not find it by Los Gatos Auto Body. If you could give a # that would be great, want to go by the shop today if possible.
Thanks
