Hendrick automall in durham just did collision work on my mazda2. I didn't have significant frame work done but I like the work they did overall so you might check them out.

They won't work on a total loss vehicle due to warranty issues.

I'd imagine Hendrick collision in Cary would be the same then. They did some impressive unbending on the GTO and it's perfect now.

Ancient history time, but this location that is behind where Team Highball used to be :D does frame straightening and car salvage. Grover McNair actually drove a car that they had salvaged as his daily driver. I had taken Pete's Sentra SE-R to them to see if they could straighten a slight kink in the subframe that kept the alignment from being perfect and they actually advised against spending any money on the car, stating that the risk of pulling out the crease could cause other problems. I was impressed that they advised against spending money there.
