Autobody Repairers of the Year 2008 in pictures

The judging is over, the wheat sifted from the chaff with the winners of the 2008 regional AAMI/Australasian Paint&Panel Autobody Repairer of the Year awards announced.

Now in its 13th year the awards that recognise bodyshop repairer excellence have been determined for the best small (under 15 employees), large (15 employees or over) and new (built or substantially re-built over the past 18 months) shops in all the mainland states.

Here are all the award winners in pictures as well as those highly commended by the judges in what was a typically exhaustive process.
