Body Shop Recommendation for Aftermarket Parts
I'm new to the Seattle area and looking for a reliable and competent body shop that would do aftermarket parts. I'm looking to get an FRP trunk fitted, painted, and installed.

His name is Dave Steward. The body shop is called 360 AutoBody. You can reach him at (206)947-4599. The shop is located at 13205 NE 124th St Suite D Kirkland, WA 98034. Just let Dave know, Johnny refeal you. Give it a shot and see how much he would charge you. All price are negotiable. Good Luck!

Yea, he does a really good job and cheap labor. That is why he does all the dealership's job. He has contract with them. I done all the jobs for my 330, my friend's 335, EVO VIII, Del Sol, NSX, TSX, Mazda 3 and all other bimmer series. He has also done my custom pain wheel too. He does all kind's car and work. You can give him a shot.

I had my entire front end done at 360, and i wouldnt recommend them.
Horrible job really, and late as hell too. Kept my car for almost 10 extra days. They don't ever answer the phone as well, so I couldnt get info on my car as well. Didnt even wash my car when I went to pick it up. I plan on getting it all repainted by someone else when I get back. |

I see most people in 6Speed recommend Haury's. I guess I'll give them a try.

I recommend BodyWorks in Bellevue. They've done a lot of body work on past vehicles I've owned, and their quality/paint match is top notch. They might be a tad on the pricey side compared to others though.
I've heard lots of good things about Haury's as well but have never gotten anything done there myself. Welcome to the PNW!

Haury's also has an E90 M3 available to rent while your car is in their shop. I have no idea how much it costs though. They call it a "loaner car", which I think is a complete misnomer. To me, a "loaner car" doesn't cost money to get, but whatever. Still, pretty cool that they have one available!

Runs can be corrected, but dust spots?

IDK about custom body work but Bosen in Tacoma did a fantastic job on my car.. I had to get front/ rear bumpers replaced. The paint match is almost perfect.. scratch that, it is perfect. If you don't already know, I have an Arctic Metallic.. probably one of the most difficult colors to paint match. The accident occurred 2 weeks before I was scheduled to leave for NY, body shop got my car back to me within a week. They had some mad connections because all the NW BMW dealerships said it was going to take them at least a week to get the m-tech kit, but the guy at the shop made a few calls and made it happen in two days, somebody even drove it up to Washington from Oregon or California. Needless to say, for all OEM work etc, I would recommended Bosen.

I've heard a lot of recommendations for Bel-Red Auto Rebuild from people at work that have used them.
