I still have to put socks and plastic bags over the exhaust tips, just in case. Also need to monitor the tires and maintain a higher than normal PSI for the winter.

Did you make an appointment with him? Curious as to how far he's booked out over the winter months. I'm planning to get my front resprayed and then put on a clear bra. I'm planning to have him do the full package with his "perminant coating". He's definitely the sh8t!!

Yeah we plan out sometime in april but got to call him and set a firm date. think he said hes booked till december as of now? I'm going to have to respray the hood, debating on a clear bra on a black car because you can kind of see the lines.

Just make sure you book early. He'll get booked out next spring quick. Slows down in the winter obviously because people don't want to worry about taking their cars out in the mess to get it to him.

Honestly, with a black car its one of the easiest colors to color match, you can take it almost any reputable shop. They just need to use quality adhearant and primers, along with a quality clear and a wetsand/buff.

My shop is about 30-40 mins south of where I live. I've taken my G35, G37, and FX35 there. A few months ago, I found out that Kline Nissan sends some of their warranty work(had a door resprayed on our 2013 Altima) to a shop near them which they did immaculate work on my wife's door, color matched perfectly in pearl white. Was very impressed. I'll try and figure out which shop this is for you...
