Bennett Coachwerks in Milwaukee......

I would STRONGLY encourage you to get a written estimate for the complete job. (and then I would STRONGLY encourage you to go to the shop and speak with the owner every week to make sure he is not EXCEEDING the estimate in labor hours by ridiculous amounts)

I had this shop do paint and bodywork on one of my cars. The owner tried to charge me more than twice the original estimate without consulting me. The color did not match the first time, and nor did it match the second time they had to re-paint it! I was very close to taking him to court. He has been sued before and lost for the same things. I did not know this when I took my car there originally.

My advice would be to go ANYWHERE else. Seriously.
