From personal experience, I always refer my customers to either:

[http://www.hoffmanautomotive.net/](http://www.hoffmanautomotive.net/) (speak with Jeff)

or

[http://www.autopialtd.com/](http://www.autopialtd.com/) (speak with Rob, and they have recently moved, although their number is the same)

I have also had a decent amount of experience with Sheridan Collision, and have found their work either fantastic or spotty. However, that may be a result of my former employer being a cheap-ass and doing his best to low-ball Nick as much as possible.

I have dealt with Judah and Happy in the past, and they USED do great work, but I did not like the BS factor with dealing with them. THanks anyway

Damn. Choices are narrowing down.

Someone told me about “Custom paints by Frank”. Guess it’s a small shop in North Buffalo by Hinman Ave.
