Angry Good body shop anyone in L.A., CA?

I went to a stereo shop to see if I could put a bass tube in the trunk of my 930. The shop owner told me I can easily fit a 10 inch bass tube with no problem. When I returned to pick up the car I noticed one side of the hood is lifted higher than the other. What the idiot didn't realize was that the lip of the bass tube is reinforced by a thick metal plate which hit the support beam of the hood and the downforce of trying to close the hood caused it to bend. Anyone know of a good body shop in the Los Angeles area who is trustworthy and does a clean job?

Valley European Inc on Hazeltine in Van Nuys. They built my 935 body work and all. Fred Garcia is the guy who owns the shop.

LA Body Shop Referral

I would go to Brace's Body Shop in Culver City. Primo work, Brace is awesome!! He fixed my 996TT after it was hit in a parking lot. Brace is well known to So. Calif PCA members.

Sorry I don't have the phone number handy. You can call Callas Rennsport at 310-370-7038, and Tony or Tom can provide you his phone number. Good luck!!
