Default frame checked - where to get it done at.

Was in an accident with my e30 and dont think I hurt the frame but wanted to get it checked before I get to far into repairing it. Any good places in Richmond?

any body shop can check the frame, very few can repair one.

I actually went to Ron Ellis Frame & Front End but they seemed confused about me wanting to get the car checked. They said they would just do an alignment. I left a voice mail with Adrenaline Autoworks.

There is a difference between "getting the frame checked" and an alignment.
