    Fender Bender Repair

    Hey Guys, Some dummy hit me today and I was wondering where you guys would take to get this fixed? What are some places you guys would recommend? Somewhere around Seattle would be ideal.
    Im considering getting my front valence repainted as well. I also could be interested in a passenger AW2 fender if its in good shape. Thanks..

                    I pulled everything off. They fixed the fender(the right way), fixed and repainted the entire front end for rock dings etc including cleaning up and repainting the early Is valance, buffed out the entire car. It was around $1200 if I remember right.

                      I had a replacement fender but they told me they didn't need it and called me in to show me in person. The guy who did the work was a real artist. I was amazed. Great people too. It used to be called Body Craft but they were bought by Gerber. Still the same employees though.

                        Thanks for letting me know, I got a quote at Haurys on Lake City and they quoted me at 2k! Kinda crazy i thought, especially all the charges for removing and installing peices.

                          You know Haurys will be good but that's a lot. Pull the parts yourself. Its easy. Maybe take a drive and see Gerber.

                            yea I agree, I went to Haurys cause I knew they would be the top of the line. I'm gonna drive around and get quotes tomorrow. And I definitely will pull some parts even if this is all going on someone else's dime.

                              Yeah it was on the other guys insurance for me as well but I decided if I did more work I could get more done without anything out of pocket.
