I agree Sam. But, Gainesville is a good two hours away from me.

not close enough to matter Lynn. Metal work is an art and an EPA thing so not many local towns have that service.

I use IT's Finished here in Charlotte. I have done three cars with these guys and they do great work. I agree about using local businesses. It is hard for these guys to start up once out of business due to the regulations so I try and use them.

I have had a set of Bumper Boyz bumpers which were junk. It bought them when I did not know any better...never again and no repop. There is no comparison to the quality of the original bumpers vs the repops. The repops are so much lighter than originals and the plating generally is not near as good as the platers here in the US.

Another bad response for the boyz..really bad! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img] I have been using tri city with great results. Good cost, reasonable turn around, nice job!. For other items, Donnie introduced me to Libranti's..good job there as well, very satisfied.

Sam, I suspect that's why their business is in the &quot;boonies&quot;.
It's a quick 1 hour jaunt up from Dallas for me. Well worth it.
