    Hey Guys, I am a relatively new owner of a 550 Maranello, and my front bumper has several rock chips, etc. on it that have been touched up. I figured I'd like to "do it right" and get it stripped down, repainted properly with all the layers, etc. Then, would like to do a clear bra a month or so down the road after the paint has had some cure time.

    I usually use a shop for other cars nearby, but a Ferrari is a bit of a different animal. Would you guys trust/use a local dealership like Boardwalk Ferrari to do body work? I figure that would be a safe bet, but wanted to see if anyone had any strong opinions or thoughts here. Or, would that essentially be one of the only places to go?

    Take it to Stuart's. They have my 550 now doing a fender forward respray and clear bra for the same reason you are wanting yours done. They do all the exotics that owners want done right. When I dropped my car off there was an Aventador being repaired as well as a Ford GT.

    Another vote for Stuart's. They have done some work on my former Porsches in the past, excellent work.

    Sounds like a safe bet, but I would also contact James Patterson at Norwood and get his recommendation. Super nice guy and very helpful.

    Thanks! For the record and closure on this thread - James Patterson @ Norwood also recommended Stuart's.

    I was treated professionally, and the work was top notch. My Dad got rear-ended a bit back, and Chris @ Stuart's handled that with the same high level of service and quality.
