Any recommended body shops (that can match VR perfectly) or shops that do installs in the area?

Well, my 8 is in the shop. The rear end shocks went out, so I brought it in on tuesday to get fixed. Well, they cannot overnight shocks, and the tech said it was able to be driven, so I gave my rental back. Thursday the shocks come in, but the service dept., is backlogged, so they say keep the car until monday. Last night I pulled into the driveway and the driver's side A arm cracked. It was towed to the dealership this morning and I am very pissed, but at the same time very happy because if the A arm was faulty, thank god that **** didn't happen on the highway. I'm also ambivalently pissed because I think the blown out rear suspension caused the stress on the front suspension which caused the A arm to break. Either way, FML. But I am in a Lincoln MK Z, which is pretty fun cuz everything is run by buttons and is fun. Wouldn't want to own one because there is a shitload of stuff that can break.

Oh well...
