Got into an Accident

Thanks everyone for the advice. The body shop I took the car to is extremely reputable. I'll post a full review afterwards in case others in the SF Bay Area need a shop later but I've been there before with another car with more damage and they returned the car to new condition so I think I'm in good hands.

That's sucks. I hear that the grey colors cannot be identically matched to factory spec but I may be wrong.

Quick update - the estimate came up to $16.5K. They are starting the work now and I should get the car back in 2-3 weeks, so its something to look forward to. Going to go over every inch of the car before I accept it back.

I was gonna say, $6-10k seems much too low. My motorcycle got knocked over and the insurance co. valued it at $3200...
