Anyone know of a good body shop in the NoVa area?

I'm looking to black out the fangs and the rear area around the fog light/exhausts. Also anyone have an idea on the price range of such paint jobs?

I think most people here would say that D&V Autobody does some amazing work, but they are on the pricey side.

This place looks pretty good, I can probably get that annoying ding fixed too... I guess the tricky part will be getting home if I drop my car off that far out...

You can plastidip in your parking space.

Over 9000!

Two cans will be more than enough, you cold honestly probably get by with one can. Four layers on fangs and valance is enough.
