Paint shop in MA or NH for color change

Post by nyc951 » Mon Nov 13, 2017 11:05 pm

Hi all,

I have a Porsche 968 that I like, but I want to make it something I really love. I've tracked it a few times and will continue to do so, but I do want to change the color to something more exciting. SO...can someone recommend a shop in the Eastern MA or Southern NH area that can do a good color-change paint job (engine bay, door jambs, trunk, etc.) but that won't cost an arm and a kidney? I do drive a poor man's poorsche after all.

I am willing to strip the entire car down including removing the motor to do preventative maintenance "while I'm in there"...

I've been reading about way too many shops that start a job and keep asking for money, and then hold your car hostage until you pay up. I can't afford to get stuck in a situation like that!

Thanks!

Talk to Tom at Precision ( https://www.precisionmotorsports.com/ )

They're a SCCA family that races. Father and son work at the shop. They've done all of our Miata repairs.

They do a huge mix of work, and he recently had a nice old Porsche in for the paint on a total rebuild.
