Hey guys. I've tried posting in my regional forums to ask about this but I never get a response so I'm posting here. I have a 3rd gen that hopped a curb about a month ago and did some front end damage to the left control arms and the front bumper. My dad insisted he knew what to do and took it to some body shop where they waited 3 weeks for a part that ended up being the wrong one. Anyways, they replaced the lower left control arm and now they said they need to replace the upper left control arm and possibly a few other things. Do any of you guys know a good place in the washington DC/virginia area to take my car to for this front end work? even if its not an rx-7 place.. ANY place that you guys know of that works well on import cars I would appreciate. I'm really having trouble here figuring out where to take my car. (I plan on fixing the bumper myself but the control arm and whatever other problems the car has I can't fix myself).
Thanks.


Also - if any of you are interested in selling a stock/aftermarket front bumper set or an upper left control arm shoot me a PM because I'm interested. Thanks again.

Can no one really help me out on this? My car right now is ruining my life. My parents have just been freaking out on me about it and it's tearing us apart. I really don't want to have to sell it but if no one knows of any good places locally that's what I'm going to have to do. :\

Jump on the phone book in your area and call around. Worst case you could always take it to a Mazda service shop, sence it doesn't have anything to do with the engine. Any good wheel alignment shop or tire shop maybe able to help.

Otherwise I am not in your state and can not help. Whatever you do, DON"T SELL YOUR CAR.

you know, Malloy Mazda is not so very far from there. You might call Ray Crowe there and see if he knows a good suspension shop in your area. He does drive an RX, so he might have a little knowledge about local good-guy shops for your car...

Try giving these guys a call. A while back an ex of mine lived out there for a while, got in a wreck, and had these guys fix her Integra. They did a damn good job. But that's not my *personal* experience, and I live half way across the country. (and I dunno how close they are to you)

But the above suggestion is probably better, to talk to Malloy.

Take your FD to a shop and find out what parts you need for your rack. DO NOT LET THE SHOP ORDER PARTS FOR YOUR FD!! Buy them from Ray or Fritz Flynn..
