TX San Antonio Repair Bodywork

Hey guys I am new to the site and as the title says I need some body work and repairs done to my 8. Just some info...someone backed into my car and smacked some shopping carts into the back and side of my car (Walmart parking lot) and drove off. It is all body. Some dents...a little paint and that plastic sorrounding area around one of my exhaust tips. Any recommendations on where I can get cheap yet good work done...I'm on the NW side of town.

Also I need some brake work and a tune up. Should I just go dealer or does anyone have any good advice. Thanks guys.

here is a bodyshop that has done work for me and they are excellent...

Tuneup- Coils,Plugs, wires is fairly easy with simple hand tools
Brake work can be done not that hard...

Here's one that you might like as well. It is much more reasonably priced than other places I have called and talked with. It also was recommended by my neighbor who has done a lifetime of body paint repair. And it was also recommended by MAXIMUM VELOCITY MOTORSPORTS:


M&S Body Shop.
5555 Timberhill # 2, San Antonio, TX‎ - (210) 509-1470‎.
(This is just off Bandera about 2 miles outside 410)


Right now my RX8 is getting a body kit done there and should be done this Thursday. So if you would like me to show you pics of their finished products on RX8's I'll be happy to send you some. just pm me.
