Recomendation-good body Shop and reasonable $$Bay Area?

Hi all, I need to fix and repair my 99 C4 bumper- I also have a fixed wing I brought from ebay I want to get painted and (maybe) installed. Any recommendation on good body shop with reasonable pricing in the Bay Area-Santa Clara, CA? Thanks in advance.

I dont know of any in SC, but Abbott Street Auto Body is the best down in Salinas. They've done work on my CLS55, Porsche, and Murcie.

El Camino body shop.

I punched a hole in my y2k C2 and took it everywhere for quotes.
I showed up at The El Camino Body shop in Santa Clara and got the warm fuzzy feeling when the guy told me he had a porsche too and that they'd take great care of mine.

They did.

They did a great job, in fact, later this year I'll take it back and get them to do the front and remove all the stone chips from the front bumper.

Here's there website.

I reccommend Bodystyle on Brokaw Rd. The owner Cecil Beach is a Porsche nut too. They specialize in working on P-Cars. Had my GT3 II bumper, center consol painted there. He did a great job with adding custom grills for the bumper too.
