All fantastic shops, i'd recommend concours if getting the repair done immediatly isnt important. they are VERY good, but very backed up.

[Sharpie]

Out of all of those i would choose A1, but you should try Screaming(you hear nothing but good things about them and dan is an awesome guy)...

If neither of those work out for you I have one more option but it might mean waiting for a while though...

I'm a big fan of Hallmark, they do incredible work but i'd only go there if insurance was paying as they are very expensive.

Ummm no, those arent the only shops you can goto. You can goto any shop you damn well want, just the adjuster will need to assign a field appraiser.

Not on your list, but Carstar did an amazing job on my car. A beyond member recognized it and did an insane detailing job after too.

Hallmark is family owned (i BELIEVE) and Weapon_R is right, they do fantastic work as well. Usually arent too busy either cause they're downtown and noboyd likes to drive downtown to fix their cars lol

A1:thumbsup:

[jdmXSI]

A1 is a really good "insurance" shop to go through!:thumbsup:

[sugoi240]

I've gone to Contemporary Coachwork,
not not CMS. I've had work on on cars in the past
and very satisfied with the work, it does cost more since
they prefer new oem parts, but the work is incredible.
So is the bill. :eek:

But if insurance, I would take it to them again.
Don't let the appraiser send u to joe blow or
to a autobody place where he can save the insurance company money.

It's your car, your right.
