Need Help with Salvaged G37

Hello, brand new to the G37 world but I went ahead and purchased a G37 sedan through an auction with my father that rebuilds cars. However, being in the military I am in Virginia and he is in California so I was able to rebuild everything that I needed to rebuild on the car myself but the only thing I have no clue in the world how to do is body work. I have all the parts painted the same color I just need the front of the car straightened up. Would anyone know a solid body shop in Virginia, preferably around the Hampton area? Or could anyone knowledgeable on body work possibly be able to help me out? Thanks for everything.

Welcome to the site!
I'd ask fellow employees where you work if they know of good shops, google several shops and check their reviews, and go check out several shops on your own seeing some of the work they've done. If your G is safe to drive take it to a few shops and get an idea of the price ranges they charge, just don't commit until you get a few quotes.

Raymond,

Welcome to the G37 world! Congratulations on your find. Do you just need to secure/align your front clip?

If your not able to find any leads, DM me, it looks like I’m 2 h 50 min (181.3 mi)
North of Hampton via I-64 W and I-95 N.

The auto shop shop here at JBAB is pretty solid, and the lead mechanic is very knowledgeable and helpful.

Jesus Christ.... $13 for a mount and balance?????????? I hope I can use this as a price match lol

...sorry had to edit and take another glance..... I'm confused lol it says $75 for all four, but what if I brought them my rims/tires and just needed to remove current tires and mount/balance? Is it $13 per wheel ($6 mount / $7 bal) or is it $75 for all four? lol

Are you military? This shop is on a military installation so if you're not military you'd have to ask someone to get you on base. It would probably be $75 for all four.

In most cases if the military person in not the owner they will not allow work to be conducted! I love the craft shops I have used...very helpful and a good learning place!
