Hello again,

im in queens but i don't mind traveling to either of the 5 boros. I need to get a small ding out of the front fender (bought it used with it). The ding is really small and no paint is scratched but on black it really shows.

cracking a peanut with sledgehammer here -
ANY bodyshop can take care of that - nothing mechanical, you don't need a "Acura specialty shop"

Yes, I agree...you don't need a mechanic for that...what you want is paintless dent removal (PDR)

rallye does PDR, though they're a bit expensive. They specialize in acura's, mercedes, bmws, and lexus's.

i don't know if they do body kit installs. they're more of a accident/collision/paint shop, instead of a regular garage, but you can ask.

what are you painting?

if you have access to a driveway, some basic tools, and the where-with-all to follow directions, you can easily install the body kit yourself and save a few hundred bucks.
