Default Need a body shop recommendation - Indianapolis

Well, the girlfriend finally did it. She backed into my Z this morning.
I thought she had learned when she just missed my Saturn last week but nope.
So now I have a wrinkled fender and smushed bumper. At least she missed the headlight.
I am pretty anal about this car (as I am sure most of you guys are too) and I want the best possible fix.
Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks

"girlfriend" + "backed into my z" = time for her to

Ha ha. Nah, she's a good girl. Just a bit scatterbrained at times.

I found a shop that I think will do the job to my satisfaction.

Do the research on the shop. Hopefully you can ask someone here if they've ever used their services and you can get feedback. Hope this helps
