HossE36 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2008 RX Refinishing on Epsom Rd, Sockburn. My best mate owns the place and he should do you a good deal and he loves BMW's.....NOT!! He almost died when I told him I bought another BMW, he doesnt know it yet but hes gonna take out the dents on the side of mine.. But anyway hes a great painter and you will get great finish. Logan's his name by the way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cain, I've tried to find this place in the phone book to no avail..... do you have an address/ph number? Going quote-shopping tomorrow morning, so basically I'll be choosing between panelbeaters who open on Saturday mornings! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NZ POM 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2008 (edited) Raxworthy are the best in town. Bit more expensive though. I paid 300 for my bumper to be colour coded.. Which one Bruce or Rex , though their both good, i'd rather take mine to Bruce as the other one will charge Mercedes rates (their both on the same street) Cain if your a regular customer i'd have thought you'd get their name right LOL it's Smart collision repairs; 15 smarts rd Hornby 03 349 9591, WWW.smartcollision.co.nz. but i agree they'll do a good job. Sorry guys dont agree with Bairds, not if you dont want your car full of bog. Also try Panel Plus in Papanui ask for Justin or Barry. I was in the car paint trade for 25yrs and worked here before decided to get out of the game. their good, i'd use them.

cainchapman 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2008 Given that I don't live there. I figured I was close enough for you to find it. Gary Geeves owns the place. I'd call him, not his office anyway. They may have changed their name in the 10 years since I left Christchurch too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
