Don't know the name of the shop, but its the one that Peyton Cramer Acura uses. My friend took his ITR there after a parking lot hit & run. They did a great job.

For custom work I recommend Reflections Autobody in Wilmington. For OEM work Honda Service Center in Torrance or A&B Autobody in Gardena.

The place acura reccommends is okay. I had my car fixed there after it got hit in a parking lot, the paint on the bumper is starting to crack now, and they left a bunch of overspray all over the car. There's only 1 spot I couldn't get out with the clay bar. Nice people, but overall I feel that their job was shady.

I would reccommend the Honda Body Shop in Torrance, on Crenshaw and Sepulveda. Yoshi said they're bomb.

Are you talking about Bravo Auto Collisions? That's what I was referring to.

He never told me the name. Just told me he took it to the same body shop that the dealer uses to fix their cars.
I didn't see the car until it was fixed. I couldn't tell it was damaged. The damage was the passenger side rear quarter panel was crushed in and the door was scratched up.
They even matched his NBP perfectly. I think that may have been a large part of choosing that particular shop.

Yoshi,

Do you know if the shop you recommend does the JDM front? Also... how are they with pricing, expensive, reasonable?

If you want the JDM front installed, I would take the car to a body shop that does custom work! HSC specializes in OEM bodywork.

Like I said before I would try Reflections Autobody in Wilmington. They do good paint matching and have done their share of JDM front ends and ITR's . If you go down their ask to speak to Manuel or Nick.
