HOUSTON HELP A SOLDIER OUT! Need a reputable body shop in the area!

Does anyone know of a good body shop in the Houston area that doesn't charge a fortune? I need to get some body work done and a kit installed and a paint job on my 93 FD. I'm currently in Iraq and my brother has my car and he is attending UTI. He will be the one getting the car fixed up and I need to know where to send him. Please help me out and thanks to all that reply for helping out a soldier!

If you dont have or are not going to use insurance

Easthaven bodyshop... off 45 south...

It seems a little scetchy but HAND TO GOD they are the best cheepenst place Ive found

taken 5 cars there over the years. one was a 3day old 2001 M3 the the jackass parked on a rock. fixed in 3days for $400 couldnt tell at all.

I HAve never been disapointed.

If you have insurance and are going to use let (pm) me know thers a place on britmore that is unreal perfectionest!!!

if you drive a rx7, take your car to spags in oakridge 281-362-0033 ask for manny he is the manager and tell them erik sent you there, but one thing about them they take longer than most places but they do a great job and the owner of the shop is who i bought my rx7 from, he is a real rotorhead
