Default 7 days old/suggest a good GTA body/paint shop?

Somebody backed into the driver's door of my 7 day old C7. Can somebody suggest a good body/paint shop to correctly match the blade silver on the door to the rest of the car? The damage looks mostly cosmetic from what I can see.

If you want a professional option , we have our own in-house detailer and I am quite certain that he would be able to get the right for with out paint .

Check us out , we currently have 2 of the first C7's in any Performance or paint shop in Ontario

Our new state of the art paint booth and paint system is second to none .

We have just opened an new separate 3000sqt facility in a separate building for paint and body work

Sorry for the poor luck.

Champion is the only place to take it to for the meticulous quality you need.

Lifetime guarantee and I've seen their work multiple times and their service makes me think of reasons to just pop in.

That is such a **** off I hope that they at least left a note!

If you don't want any further disapoinments I would go with Champion.

They are most definately the best in the business and you will get a proper job done at a fair price.

If it is just a scuff and can be polished off I am sure that Peter will do it for you at no charge!

That's just the kind of guys at Champion.

Drop by and see Champion's new shop at 117 Crockford Blvd. it's second to none.

Rob and Pete at Champions know their stuff, they have won awards for their paint work and their pricing is in line. They have a dude named Fernando there, and, I swear by this guy, he is top notch!!!!
Don't you just love how some shmucks park right beside our vettes in empty parking lots, lotta brainy individuals out there.
Best of luck wherever you bring your new vette, just tell em they are painting your entire car if they eff it up.

Sorry for your bad luck! But you are in luck! Champion motors can help you with your little problem for sure. I was at the show last week and went by their booth, Rob and Pete had both cars present and boy the paint work was insane. All I know my car is very important to me and Pete is the only one I trust to paint my car, so far he has done the hood, rear fenders, side splitters, front spoiler and rear wing.

Give them a call and tell them Funcool sent you, you will be happy too.
