Body Shop in NJ
someone hit my rear quarter panel with their car door and left a nice dent instead of a note. paint is ok, but it's pretty nasty. anyone have any experience with any shops in NJ? also any idea how much of a hit i can expect on the wallet?
TIA

Update: went around to 3 places today, and all said i'd have to get the quarter panel and the the rear door repainted. The work is gonna cost $740 , and i'll need a rental car for 4 days (+$100). I'm goin to Budd's Auto Body in Cedar Grove since they're right on my way to work, recommended by my insurance, and they're estimate was right in the middle of the other 2 ($600 and $900). My NJM insurance deductible is $500, so the big question is whether i should file a claim for $350 or swallow it so they don't raise my rates. WWBBD?

Latest Update:
Just got the car back from Budd's- looks perfect! They even gave me a bottle of touch-up paint and told me if i ever need a scratch fixed to bring it to them and they'll paint it on for free. As for insurance, i decided to put in the claim since NJM said they wouldn't raise my rates unless there was a claim which was my fault... but we'll see what happens.

Damn I caught this all late.
Congrats! Its hard to find a good body shop. I was gonna recommend a place on the border of Belleville and Newark called Avalon Brothers. They fixed my old car. But I'm glad you found a good place and are happy with the job they did! Also good luck with those Ins. Company b@$t@^D$ lol. hope they weren't lying
