Best mini body worker in CPT
#1
I'm finally at the part where i need to get some quotes in for the body work and painting to be done. Can anyone recommend a reputable place in Cape Town?

This is the look i am going for

I'm willing to spend the money for workmanship that will last for centuries to come

Are you looking for someone to make the arches, fix rust holes and replace panels, sort out waviness in the panels, or just to give the car a top quality paint job?

I ask, because sportspack arches can be imported from the UK, as can new body panels that would need replacing if they're too damaged or rusted.

Also, it is unlikely that the people who do bodywork and panel repair are the best people for paint. The best recommendation I've heard about for painting a Mini is A&H Autobody Centre.

Most of the panel I've done myself. There will be some straightning required here and there and some 5mm rust holes to be covered. Has anyone heard of the work done by Smoke'm garage or Titan customs?

You can't really go wrong with Andrew Booysen. Tell him the type of finish you're after and the fact that you'd be willing to pay to get it done right and he will do a fantastic job for you.

He does paintwork too and it is also to a really high standard. I have not heard of either of those companies, so I can't comment on their work. They also might not be Mini specialists, so might not be best for doing bodywork on old cars with thin metal used for the panels.
