PJ Bonifacio... first one that came to mind.

I heard 20/20's quality is very dependent on how much you wanna spend, but that's just what I heard.

I know a few people who went to J&S... and never went back LOL

Have you ever heard of Team Illmatic? The are one of, if not, the best show team out there. One of their members has a shop called Auotwerx in Rosemead. Peter does the best work out there. Anything custom you need, they can do...head/tail conversions, metal wide bodies, flares, etc...my number 1 opininion for you.

Other wise there is MOB Works, 20/20, M1 Autobody, International Autobody...just off the top of my head

Team Illmatic rocks!
www.illmaticonline.com

Go to Auto Werks. The owner is the guy with the white IS300 in Illmatic, Peter.

Showpaojoe who are you? how do you know Illmatic?

I just joined Team SOLO recently...watch out Illmatic, we got a full line-up coming shortly of ALL widebody (not flared) kandy cars. We're gunna hit the scene hard as a brick. I brought my Scion xB showcar over to Autowerx to get a 4" full widebody.

I know everybody from doing shows all the time. My homeboy is Mike so thats how I got with some of the Illmatic guys and Peter. Theres never a show I am not in. Anyone from Flux, Hybrid, etc... I am down with. I am the guy in the shadows, knows everybody but doesn't talk much. My names Joe Wisniewski by the way, maybe that means something...probably not.

eh I dont really like HIN...the only thing I like about shows is walking around and checking out the cars before everyone get there...its alot more relaxed and you get to check em out better. Sometimes the models are there before the show starts to so thats cool as well. Once the show starts its a different story...can't walk around cause there are thousand of people at one freakin model booth trying to take pictures of their asses and you cant freaking move. Only time I get up during the show is to walk outside to smoke a cig, if its an indoor show! haha
