Recommend a body shop in Bay Area?

Could anyone recommend a good body shop in Bay Area? Preferably in the South Bay. My wife sideswiped her TL against a pole while parking. No terrible damage (nothing bended), but a part of the rear quarter behind the rear door has to be sanded down and repainted.

I already took the car to the Los Gatos Acura, since they run a bodyshop themselves, but their quote seems to be excessive. I'd like to take a couple of estimates from independent body shops as well.

Thanks.

This place is great and very well priced! I had a scuff on my front bumper and it's like nothing ever happened.

M&S Collision. They've got 2 locations, Milpitas and Santa Clara. I give them a million thumbs up...

Note on their website's Contact Us section they give a 10% off discount for mentioning their site!

Don't know of any in the South Bay but this shop seemed to do a good job.

Thanks everyone! Just been to FCC, and their quote is much lower, and they are going to do more to match the pain than the dealership was going to do.
