Thread: Good VW body shop in Dallas?

  1. #1

    Default Good VW body shop in Dallas?

    One of my friends is moving back to Big D, but got a li'l boo-boo on his spiffy new(ish) Golf R. Not exactly sure what happened, but I think his cat was driving. Any suggestions for a body shop that will work with insurance and do a good, quick job?

    The Damage:


    The Culprit:
    '94 Black & Black & Tan
    '99 head swap, JR header, TDR intake & header blanket, MegaSquirt, RB hollow bar, Tein Flex, 15x8 6ULs, HD M2 Sport, FM cat, Borla cat-back, black '95M interior, MOMO Zebrano, IL Motorsport console...

    Dyno Days
    8/16/08 (bone stock): 103.1 hp/99.0 lb-ft - Dynojet
    8/23/08 (Borla cat-back): 108.2 hp/104.1 lb-ft - Dynojet
    8/13/11 (more stuff...): 126 hp/116 lb-ft - Mustang dyno

    Toonces! Looks like he hit a pedestrian or a bicyclist.

    Thanks for the rec! I'll pass it along... just to be clear, is it these guys? Are they strictly a high-end specialty shop or do they have their bread-n-butter stuff too?

    A couple of errant construction barrels, apparently. Sounds like the car in front of him swerved and may have tipped said barrels, then... whack! I'll give my buddy the benefit of the doubt since this is his first wreck ever. And he's almost 40. Just like the Rain Man, he's an excellent driver.

    Looks like he hit an Oprah. This is the time of the year they begin their hyperphagia stage and relentlessly forage for food to fatten up for winter hibernation. Due to their voracious appetite, they heed no boundaries such as fences, roadways and drive-thru curbs in order to accomplish their mission.

    Consider your friend lucky.

    It is these guys http://www.krausebrosinc.com
    check out the 69 Mustang--not mine

    Andy loves German cars and they thrive under his hand. Over time, he did work on my boo boos in a Mercedes and BMW. Like I said, call him. Or stop by his shop and see the old 58 Vette that just came in for resto work.
    I'll post my 09 Miata before and after.
