The shop that worked on my car is not on lakewood. They are located on Woodruff and do not do mechanical work, only paint work.. mostly on older VW's. For people who dont know about paint and body, they're work looks really good for the price.
The problem is, during the 3 years my car was there.. I learned so much about paint and body that I am glad they DIDNT paint my car. There is a big difference in painting an old VW and painting a modern car. A VW bug has a small sum total of parts, most of which are metal and can be cleaned or restored easily if oversprayed. Modern cars have so many pieces and use so much plastic that mistakes can be difficult to correct. You end up with a paint job that may look good from far or from the outside, but when you get close you'll see all the flaws. Since I did a full paint job inside and out, it would have been a nightmare worth of flaws because cleanliness counts..... bigtime. Those that have seen the recent pics of my car know what I am talking about and appreciate the work that went into the project, and the work was NOT done by F&J.
