    Hey CO Crew!

    Looking for recommended body shops near Denver.

    My driver's door has a nice ding in it, which slightly creased the door, and left the paint chipped. It is in a spot that requires paint blending with the fender and hood. It's not flaking yet but I'd like to get it handled over summer before rust takes over.

    Not going through insurance and would really prefer to be confident in the shop before paying out of pocket :)

    -Bailey

    Wonderful! Don't have the cash now so it'll probably wait until July. If I get nailed with any hail damage they can fix it while it's in the shop.

    Make sure you always have an "out" before large hail can hit. Trees...sort of sucks. Gas Stations, anything with cover, and definitely load a local weather app than can get you instant alerts....

    Freeway overpasses are also common when it hits hard. Last year, @COMiamiFan had to do that on the way back from a Tundras.com meet.

    For what it's worth...If you have an A Prime Super White...pull out into the hail storm. That golf ball PING look will go over quite well when delivering my new putter....

    I've had my truck and my wife's WRX fixed by Fix Auto Highlands Ranch and have been pretty happy with them. I find they have been fairly trust worthy and do good work. They are on the south side of town near Santa Fe and C-470.

    You’re mistaking that for white Tundras.

    Safe drivers. We didn’t want to blow doors off other vehicles causing road debris.

    SDHQ sliders
    about to pull the trigger on the SDHQ sliders.

    A few posters said they're not easy to install, despite "no drilling", and I'm not that skilled mechanically. On top of that, I don't have a lift, rivet gun, jack stands or a hydraulic jack (not that I mind buying new tools).

    With this background, i'm looking to at least get a quote for the install before I decide whether to tackle it myself lean on the friendship of colleagues with the skills.

    Suggestions in the Colorado Denver/Boulder area on a company that will do the install for a reasonable price?
