Do some research on bodyshops in your area from "customer experience". Dont listen to your insurance company. They will most likely tell you to go to their preferred shop. Or (service first) shops. Insurance companies like progressive, and nationwide are notorious for trying to get the body shops to cut corners so it will save them money. An insurance adjusters job is to give you the least amount of money as possible! A good repair from a good shop takes time so you must be patient. If not done correctly your car will never be the same.

GOOD LUCK!

Thanks, a shop here did some work on another vehicle for me before. I'll fully inspect inside and in sunlight for color match. I've let them know my position on workmanship. I won't take it lightly if they don't do an outstanding job.

I'm sorry to see that dude. I'm waiting on another guys insurance to repair my Shinka now too (rear ended, not bad).

Pain in the ***. With the right body shop it'll be like it never happened. Hang in there.
