everything can be sorted with the correct legal action.... for instance FK thought my rear damper wouldn't be covered under warranty and wud only replace one at a push... i wrote a direct pertinent letter and 3 days later i got 2 brand new rear dampers

Seriously go with recommendations and see examples of work before hand and make up your own mind.

Midas and Chameleon are out of business, that tells you alot about what they were like. There are so many bodyshops and the like that are only around for a very short time and then disappear . Best bet is to go for an established one.

qvr are the best of the heavily advertised bodyshops. heard their service is very good, they just charge a premium. at least you know the workmanship would be good.
edit: imo

they didnt do mine - I had it fitted elsewhere - my gripe is withthe supposed "finished" quality of the kits when they are delivered

The correct procedure will be wait for the work to be completely and if you are dissatisfied give them the opportunity to rectify the problem. Only then may you start getting heavier.
Can I also ask that anyone passing an opinion does so based on fact and not what they read on the internet.

QVR are gd but very very expensive!
go to a local bodyshop that has been reccomended and has good cars in there, talking of which, come to use!
we deal mainly in BMW`s but also do alot of expensive cars including limo`s, ferrari`s, porsche`s and even had two cobra copies!

my opinion is based on personal experience with the items;in their defence though some ofthe PSG stuff is absoloutly dire as well; saying that almost every kit I've worked with has been shoddy in some way shape or form; Reiger wasnt too bad
