Paint Shops and 5spd Swap
Like the title says, I'm planning to swap out my auto and bolt in a nice 5spd. After the recent accident, I've decided to finally make this thing nice. So I'm asking if anybody knows a reputable shop that has done 5 spd swaps before on 5gen preludes. Also, does anyone know a good body shop that would paint the lude for a great price? I'm lookin for anything in the Miami area, I can travel a bit if need be, though. Thanks guys

I have a guy down here that does amazing body work. But he isn't cheap and it's all the way up here in palm beach. Are you looking for a custom job, like anything with a pearl or metal flake?

Still have the car?....ever get it painted? I'm thinking of doing the same if the price is right. Just over with the same color... too many door dings, chips, etc...

Check out Pride Auto Body in Fort Lauderdale. They do high end cars and aren't cheap, but the work is 1st rate.
