Looking for decent body shop in illinois

Got into an accident so i need a good auto body shop to go to that won`t be rude about me getting a body kit. Last one i went to the guy was really rude saying he`s not going to help me become a ricer or what ever.

Saudude mentioned e-autowerks which is in northbrook does anyone else have any other place that won`t be offended if i went the aftermarket route ?

i have a IX now but when i had my VIII i got rear ended. was recommended royal coach in addison by a family friend. do a lot of foreign/high end cars. they replaced my back bumper and the supports and whatnot underneath. did a bang up job, made it look like new. took it to AMS after becuase i wanted them to make sure there was no damage to their exhaust i had on. said it looked fine. give them a call.

Autowerks will take a while (month +) since they're REALLY backed up.
