Good Service Body Shops in Sac??

I am looking to get some work done on my car. As some of you may know the previous owner mounted the ski racks to the roof. I want to patch them up and have the shop respray the top. I am looking for a legitimate shop to do some quality work and have decent service. Does anyone have any experience with any of the shops around Sac?

I clipped an apartment complex parking overhang pillar in my 03 WRX. The driver side front fender was toast. I purchased a new one and had them paint it, no blending, and it matched almost perfectly. If you know about body work, metallic paint is always the hardest to match because there isnt a "standard" amount of flake that goes into the paint. This is why many shops have to blend so you cant tell a panel was repainted. They did an exceptional job at mixing the paint and getting it to match. They were also extremely friendly and kind and had great customer service.

The body shop was Clark's Auto Body. Here is the link to their website:

Thanks guys, I'll definitely give the shops a call for estimates and such. I'm finally moving along with the fixing up the car and some minor mods. I got a steal on some clean 04-05 ($160.00) tails the other week and got around to debadge the trunk.

Emblems and badges optional! JDM LED reverse light panel to be installed after wagon is completely polished! Headlights are polished out to like-new condition! Shiny and smooth now. It was previously yellow and oxidized pretty bad. I thought they were toast, Endless Autobody brought it back to life!
