“Reaired my subframe and inner rocker panel. Great work at a very reasonable price. Would reccommend to anyone needing frame repair for state inspection.”
“Kenny at Nichols fixed my truck frame on a tricky spot which required more than just a plate. Really nice guy who explained and showed me the work.”
“I had a small dent in the rim on my wheel which had been causing me issues for years with a slow leak. Nichols was able to fix the dent SO quickly so the tire could seal.”
