Actually, it's "Starlite" but hey, whatever.

They're located just North of Imperial, near Imperial & Kingsway.

Yes, Starlite.  Number is 604-438-9898.  Maybe we can get a DSM bodyshop...heh heh.  I'll talk to Vic and see if he'll do a BCDSM discount...hmmm...

God knows it seems like we all need one at some point...

Maybe a special deal for custom body work in exchange for bigass stickers at shows? :D

Yes, the bigger the better, right? SOMETHING to put on that turbo-brick of yours, coz we all know you don't actually own a DSM  :roll:

Whats wrong with not owning a DSM.....Some of us like the fact that their 'ride' does not break everytime it leaves the shop.   :P

As for the question at hand, what kind of work you looking to get done.  I have had dealings with a couple shops and could recommend depending on what you need done.

DSM killer.  :x

Although there is nothing I enjoy more that seeing a part-out go up in the for sale section... unless it's for body kits and hid lights.

I am just trying to rasie the price of them overall by taking a few out.....


As for a shop that does body kits, sorry can not help you.  I know a few that 'could' do it, but if it was my money I would try to find a shop that specialized in body kits.

Any bodyshop can do bodykits. They aren't to hard to do. You could even install the bumpers and sideskirts yourself and just take it to the shop to get painted.

Craftsman Collision on 96th ave and Scott road in surrey did mine. Talk to Dan, he knows his stuff and has done lots of body kits.
