  • West side paint shops.. I need one!

    Anyone know of any GOOD paint shops in the Muskegon, Grand Haven area? I am looking to have my sail panel replaced and painted.. I do not want to be referred to a "I heard this place was good shop".. I want a shop that you have either used or seen finished products from(and would recommend).. I would be willing to go to the west side of Grand Rapids also..

    Thanks!

    didn't like your last guy enough? Did you not have the sail panel done with the rest of the work you had?

        Impact Collision is right around the corner from where I work in Grand Rapids. They do a lot of frame off restorations on Corvettes, very nice work.

            He moved to a better facility after the township approved it.. Had his booth installed, etc.. Then when he went to get his permit, they started tacking on fee's that were never discussed before and he doesn't have the money.. We're talking at least 10 grand in new fee's.. Without the permit, he can't work... So he's pretty much screwed for now.. The guy who owns the building he is in is a lawyer, he's trying to get things resolved.. I went to a shop Monday for an estimate, told the guy about GM using the wrong epoxy, blah blah blah.. Then he asks me what they should use to install the panel.. I'm thinking, if you don't know, you aren't working on my car.. I may just get the panel painted somewhere, spend the winter ripping mine off and removing all the old epoxy, then when it warms up in the spring, install the new panel myself.. Who knows..

                      Courtade Body Shop in Coopersville is who we trust, old school shop right in downtown coopersville. He has painted some spots on several of my parent's vehicles, repainted the quarterpanel on my Brother's camaro and fixed a few spots on my old firebird.
