Hi I'm the proud owner of new Acura which now requires some body work to repair dents and creases as the result of choosing a bad parking space.

I just learned the local Acura dealers do not have in house body shops. This car is only weeks old and I am looking for a high end body shop which will restore the car to it's like new condition. I'm trying to avoid going to a run of the mill body shop which might require several visits to make everything perfect. I'm a bit of a car nut and just want the repair to be perfect.

I have seen earlier posts which reference a few shops but the entries are failly olld and I was hoping to get current feedback from this group.

Thanks in advance.

I highly recommend Tao Auto - *** Tao Auto Raleigh Honda specialists - Raleigh Honda auto repairs, Cary Honda auto repairs, Raleigh automotive, Cary automotive, Raleigh Acura auto repairs, Cary Acura auto repairs

Whenever my Civic needs anything beyond standart maintenance I take it to these guys. I refuse to go to dealerships and this place gave me excellent customer service, didn't try and upsell me on anything and their prices were reasonable. The only bad thing is that they're only open on weekdays.

Tunstall-Williams is the best in Raleigh and has been for a very long time.

I always recommend Raleigh Collision on New Bern Avenue. Quality work and great customer service. You deal directly with the owners, they really try to see that you are completely satisfied with the work done to your car.

We had the same issue recently. Our daughter was rear ended in a car we bought less than 2 months ago. We purchased it at Performance BMW in Chapel Hill (Performance Auto Mall). I thought I would try Leith BMW first since they were closer to us but were told that they do not have a body shop. They referred me to some local body shops but I was not too impressed. I then called Performance BMW in Chapel Hill and low and behold they had a body shop. Their estimate was even a little less than the local body shop. So I decided it would be well worth the trip to Chapel Hill from North Raleigh. I was sooooooo happy with the work they did! It looks just like new! Performance Auto Mall also sells Acura's so they should be able to do the work for you. I definitely recommend them!! If you have any further questions just let me know!

I highly recommend Performance Auto Body in Cary. Theyve done 2 small jobs (dont ask, neither one my fault!) on our 10 month old Odyssey. Fast, friendly and very efficient service. Cleanest body shop Ive ever seen! They were recommended to us by Autopark Honda.

We also used Haddock in Cary about six months ago on our Honda. The work was very good and they delivered exactly when they said they would.

Garner Collesion ( Ean). They are one of the best places in town, nobody else would touch my cars.
