| Rich city collision repairs
Hi all, do you have any experience with Rich City collision on Horseshoe Way in Richmond? I've searched but only 2 threads came up and posted a few years ago. Just wondering if anybody has dealt with them recently. I was told that they are an acura certified bodyshop but I didn't find much info about them.
Thanks!

Go to Fastrack Autobody....My Acura is being repaired over there right now. Super nice staff, brand new courtesy cars and from current reviews and from what I've seen at there shop their work seems to be very good too, They are also official partners with Richmond Acura.
and to top it off they have life time warranty on the repairs.

Ive been there. They were meticulous with my bodywork and the service was top notch. I have no hesitation to return to them. Quote:

My 04 TL got keyed to the metal a few years back (random parking lot spree). Entire passenger side of the car had a nice line running thru it. Richcity fixed it up nicely, tough colour to match (it's silver with a hue of blue, even Honda gets it wrong from batch to batch). Fantastic work. shop exterior looks a bit shoddy but their service and quality is great.

Cool, how long ago was it when you guys dealt with them? I just wanted to make sure since employees come and go, and quality could be differ over the years? And also, who did you guys deal with?

I did some research, and I believe the one on bridgeport closed down. I'm gonna get my car fixed there, on horseshoe way, since it's referred to by an acura dealer.

I will post pics when it becomes ready. Quote:
