I dont know any in St. Charles, Ive been looking for a good palce to ,
Ive had work done on other vehicles at Collision Plus(WAS NOT HAPPY)and
other big companys(still not happy)

So now I look for the people that run there own shop or something(old skool painters that do badass jobs) ,because in the bigger company's they have 10-15 touching your car and I think that many people could mess something up. thats how it was at Collision Plus and Perfect Finish to many people messing around.

I've seen some really nice work from Elite Customs. They rolled my fenders and did an excellent job. Probably going to go through them to for my new coat of paint.
