Autocraft on No. 6 Road

Need some body work/ repair done on my QX4. Autowest Infiniti suggested Autocraft on No. 6 Road.

Any suggestion? Reviews?

Thanks!

Give Advantage Collision a call, they're just behind Ikea. They do pretty good work. Ask for Eric!

I had a horrible experience with them with my old car that was stolen and recovered. To summarize things, my car looked ok when I got it back. Not until a while after when I took apart my front fender to realize the entire inside panel of the fender was NOT painted, it was exposed to rust. Not until when I took the seats out to replace racing shells in, did I realize they replaced my stolen seats with "stolen" ones. The original seats are heated stock. It seemed shady that the seats they have replaced for me had cut wires.

Did they own up to it and fix it?

Thanks

They're fairly cheap and fast, but quality is average.
