Stay away from MID ISLAND AUTO SHOP!

Fellow members of this forum I just wanted to warn the people of the tri state area of a body shop called MID ISLAND. They do horrific work (in my experience) and even worse customer service. They might have a big facility but the people that work here like BRIAN (general manager of shop) as well as JAMES (BRIAN's little pet). Once confronted of the work that was not up to my satisfaction like paint not matching, trunk not flush with body, overspray both BRIAN and JAMES started to curse me out as well as passing the buck to BMW. They even went as far as saying I bought the car pre owned and that work was done before I bought it and had nothing to do with the work they did... I am extremely upset how they have handled this situation and really don't want to see anyone else go through what I am going through now. If anymore information is needed or anyone have questions feel free to post or message me.

Martinos is the only shop I use but this time around I felt like I was "strong armed" I just want to let everyone know to never get work done from MID ISLAND.

That really sucks, nothing is worse than when a body shop fucks up your baby.

Shouldn't have come as surprise tho if this is the place:

Don't ever let anyone or any insurance company tell you "You must go here or we won't pay, etc". It is illegal and by law you have the right to have your car repaired anywhere of your choosing.
