He has done a lot of work on chapter members and will give you a good price. He did some work on my '99 528i Sport and I was very happy with it. Moreover, his price was half of what I was quoted by Vogely & tood, the shop BMW of Nashville recommends. The shop is behind Dixie Motors on Murfresboro Road. He has a small shop and he will "talk your ear off," but he is a good guy and will treat your car like it is his own. For what you are going to get painted, he is perfect for it.

It's on Main St. just North of the Coliseum in Nashville. They do amazing work there. Only work on higher end vehicles. I saw a sweet M6 in there getting a total work-over. A friend had his M-B painted there and you couldn't tell it wasn't factory. Guarantee's the paint for life. In the Porsche circles, it's on of the top places in town. I plan to get paint there this Spring.

Kramer 01-21-2003, 11:11 AM Greg, I got a quote there @ $3K for and entire job (paint matching-not changing color). After seeing their work and hearing about those crazy Californians and what they pay, I felt as if that were pretty reasonable. Mike '98 328iC-Cosmos Nashville-ish rgol 01-21-2003, 03:01 PM Stephens is not worth a bumper being resprayed. They will be higher than Vogely & Todd. I promise and the quality difference is arguable. Another decent shop is Whaley's near Charlotte & White Bridge Road. They worked on my E36 convertible and did a good job. I had the front bumper repainted, rocker panels painted as well as had two (2) spoilers added - front & rear. It is all about how much you want to spend.

I love the cabs...couldn't find a decent deal on an M# cab when I was looking. Settled on a 328iC. It'll do...> |
