[AV] In the L.A. area, San Pedro Auto Body is by far, THE only NSX body shop I will bring my car to. They have the most knowledge and experience in repairing NSX bodywork, and is the "unofficial" body shop of Honda/Acura of America.

They know NSXs inside out. They know how to work with aluminum. They know the various nuances of the different colors the NSX comes in.  These are all important factors in choosing a body shop.

They painted all factory NSX race cars, including the World Challenge car of Peter Cunningham. (310)831-8456 -

[DWG] Well I got my car back today. I went up to Long Beach for the GP practice sessions and the weather held so I ran over to San Pedro and picked up my baby.

But to be honest, it wasn't my first attempt. Supposedly the car was ready on Monday, but when I went to pick it up I noticed a small (the size of a pencil eraser) flaw in the front nose down low towards the ground. I asked Frank if it was anything to worry about and he became very embarrassed that he hadn't noticed it before I did. He asked me to leave the car so he could make it right. I asked how he was going to touch it up and he said, "no touch up, we'll take the nose off and repaint the whole thing". Which they did.

So today when I went to pick it up it was perfect. I mean, if you never knew what it looked like after the canyon run you'd never know. The paint matches perfectly, the gaps are all aligned and the seals are crisp and clean. And I'm pretty picky about this stuff.

Make no bones about it - it wasn't cheap. Those of you who saw my car after the canyon run will be surprised to know that you were looking at $7,000 in damage. I may have been able to get it done cheaper, but I don't think I could have gotten it done better.

If you car gets whacked, there's only one place to go - San Pedro Auto Body.

I'm probably going to be taken off AAA's Christmas card list. Is anyone out there an insurance agent?
