    Default Who we are

    WagenWerks is a multi-certified auto collision and European restoration facility located in Lawrenceville, GA.

With 15+ years of experience, you can expect quality repair and service.

    We have deep roots in VW and Ferrari. You can also catch some info in S3's current issue. We have 7 magazine articles this year so far. We are able to reach and cater to a much broader audiance. We are no Maaco and offer far superior product on everything. Even our under substrates (meaning primer, fillers, etc) are top of the line. We have a STRONG reputation and relation w/ BASF. That's not to say other products like PPG or Dupont or Standox are inferior it's a matter of experince w/ BASF, it's what works for us that gives us the reputation we have earned.

    Our lowest line primer is BASF RM DP26 and our lowest line clear is BASF RM DC92. For those who like to do internet research I challenge you look the products up! Our colours are from BASF RM Diamont. We can do Glasurit on request. We are BASF Advance Colour Match Certified, BASF LIFETIME Warranty certified, I-Car Platinum Certified and ASE refinish Certified. All our work is LIFETIME warranty even most of our custom work carries this.

    Our gallery is growing on our website. Sonny's flat black evo is in the next issue of S3 and we also did the matte silver 350Z that belongs to Zeek. Pics will be up later this week on the site.

    I invite you to ask questions. You can always call us 678-407-8025 or my cell 404-839-3359

    Sanding the texture (not loading it with primer), plastic prime, flex prime, blocking, final prep and paint w/ flexed clear. Removing the front bumper but leaving the sides and rear attached it approx would be $525. Lifetime warranty ofcourse

    How do you like our perception of value?

    Well in that case I may make an appointment soon! With the flex and platic prime, will the lowers look "darker" than the rest of the car? This seems to be a common thing due to the texture of the plastic lowers.

    Thanks.

    if you leave the texture in in can give you that appearance. we take out as much as the texture as we can and prime over that. What most shops do is scuff the plastic, plastic clean, cheap adhesion promotor like bulldog and try to get a result that way. Doesn't work... been down that road.
    The best way is to get out as much of texture as possible w/o marring the surface and then doing all the work on top of that. Paint is only as good as it's substrate. we do lots of this for the VAG guys.

    Awesome! Thanks for the info. I really didn't want to paint my lowers if the result was going to be a 2 tone horror.

    our basic respray starts at $1800. that can include minor dings IF they really are minor... smaller then a 50 cent piece. Again, this includes lifetime warranty and my bad jokes. We do offer in house financing. We know there are cheaper alternatives out there but they are cheaper for a reason. Come by anytime or at our next GTG and took a look for yourself OR pick up the latest issue of S3, Eurotuner or PVW and take a look at our work in there... shameless plug .

    We offer in house financing. It's 25% up front and the amount of time will depend your budget. It's not based on credit or your score. It's best to talk in person about the option.

    I'm a good friend of Zeek's and love how his car turned out. I thought of doing that before but was looking for more of a satin clear than a matte. Wondering if i could get a quote on that. Car's paint is in wonderful condition minus minor parts of the clear on the rear bumper peeling due to road grime and shit. Basically everything grey would be satinized and all the black parts would be left as is.

    ^^Could that be achieved by just wet sanding the car?

    Thanks for on zeeks car. we get nothing but on his car. the matte black Evo we did gets alot of attention from the but everybody thinks it looks :boobies: !!!

    As for your questions price would depend on if you want the jambs as well or not and how far we dismantle the car. The look cannot be done by wetsanding. The matte and satins we use ARE NOT THE "HOT RODZ" OR THE OTHER AFTERMARKET PAINTS. We achieve our mattes and satins by using BASF products. The Evo and 350z finish will be come more and more durable over time. We did some more work on the Evo recentley and the finish was hard to sand w/ 320 grit! We are able to keep the UV protection and unlike the other mattes and satins from other companies ours does not turn chaulky nor are they streaky as you can see in zeeks or sonny's evo.

    So the question to your question is how far do you want to go with the refinish. w/ jambs but NOT removing any panels it starts at $2750 for the matte or satin but check your PM.

    I was introduced to WagenWerks by two good friends. Josh & Daniel

    Not only does bryson do some awesome work but is a really cool dude with a really cool son and wife. Took my WRX there to get my rear bumper and driver side door fixed - and it came back lookin' like new! WW FTW!
