Most Expensive Body Shops?

hey all this is me talking about my accident agian.

any way i need a list of the most expensive body shops on this island that does super good work.

apperently the people who hit my car tried to getway by not answering my phonecalls and pretending not to know about the accident cause i never did any police report.

any way i now got that problem solved and they are admiting full guilt any way i wanna make thier insurence pay and them too so now i need 2 more places to get estimate from.


anyway im contacting my local insurence first ting in the morning 2 morrow.

Oka's not only did a poor job, but they returned my car with two new dings; one ding was on a brand new panel.

If you're looking for expensive

estimates, and also good work, try ACME, Central, and the one down past Sam's Club on the right, way down, on the left. Forgot the name.

if the insurance is going to pay for it then they will settle the charges with the auto body company.. depending on the insurance company (A) they will give you the money (check) and say here take this claim to the auto shop and if they require more money then tell them to call us. or (B) the company will tell them to call them directly and they will settle the bill. so overall you don't see the money. then again i haven't been in too many accidents (thank you god) to know any better.

now if the other party wants to settle without insurance companies then go ahead and keep on doing what you are doing.

yeah i know you don't want the money but in terms of their insurance going up alot more won't happen since all insurance companies know the estimate for repairs and the fair market value. that is why they work things out with the auto shop if there is a price difference.

then again it doesn't hurt to not try what you are doing.
