GOOD body shops in Lehigh Valley, PA

anyone know of any good one?
i got into a minor fender bender on saturday and am looking to go ahead and fix it... i can't take it to my old body shop in jersey cuz i think progressive ins only pays a $40 labor rate... a rate that is much higher in jersey so i guess i gotta get it fixed in PA...

anyone know of a GOOD shop that will leave me car good? my ins co gave me "smitty's" in easton... i've obviously never heard of em... any other suggestions.....?

here's the damage...

Best place in the Valley. I’ve been going to this guy exclusively since the late 80’s.
It’s right off Stefko Blvd. near Market St.

He’s not cheap though.
My insurance company gets into an argument every time, but they always end up agreeing to pay.

Ask for Andy or Dave

This is probably gonna sound stupid coming from Chicago, but I believe there is a national liscencing of certified body shops under the name of CARSTAR. I've used them and never had any quality issues. CARSTAR is not the name of the body shop, but it will be associated with the name.

Personally, when I make any trip in the cl and the body pannels don't get reconfigured, I take that as a good trip.
