+1 from me. looking for a good independent workshop for my indica

Maruthi S.S - I was most impressed with Hercules Service station, Vazhayila. Bit out of the way for most, but it is

clean and new
has got pickup and drop off facility for the cars to be serviced
good customer care lounge
you can use ram_hyundai's name to good advantage
plus usual Maruti S.S stuff

EDIT: Just saw that you wanted local workshops. Well, I still stand by the one above ...

My experience with color wheels

If they had felt so , they could have told me before they did it , and they painted the WHOLE ORVM instead of just the top half, despite me specifically telling them not to.

And on top of it I had to run around for this for two days. Gah this sucks.

It seems one of their biggest customers (Hint: Overpriced but reliable cars

) is also not too happy with their work, and got their own setup

The paint job I got from the new inhouse setup was miles ahead of the one I got from Color Wheels, even after three repaints.

Either they were getting shafted or their standards have dropped.

For me its the "Auto Engineers", Edapazhanji, Nr Vazhuthacaud.

In my opinion, they are the best in accident repairing,
The have remaked an Innova and Santro which are rejected by the Authorised dealers. They got a nice paint booth.
