So long story short, my friend's mother backed her Suburban into my parked car while it was in their driveway. I always park in the same spot when I go over there, but I guess she just didn't see it this time since it was dark out. Anyways, her insurance is obviously going to cover everything. And luckily for both of us, all the damage is on one panel. Unlike some accidents when you can upgrade to an mtech or something I don't see any up side here. The first estimate I got was $2200 from Sun Motor Cars in PA. But I'm going to be in Newark, NJ for a while, so I'm looking to get it fixed at a dealership around here. Does anybody know of a good one in this general NJ/NY area? Thanks.

No light and freeze spray. Do it the right way. Heat gun and then dry ice. Or find a ding removal guy. I know someone here in NY that will take it right out. Shouldnt cost u more than $100. Looks like the paint is still good.

Any one remember the Old Saturn Commercials where the beat the doors with a Baseball bat and they "pop" back out....
This would be a good case for investing in that tech....
Sorry for your car.
My Mother in law has backed in to 2 of my cars now causing a grand total of $4K in damage.
I won't drive to her house any more and force my wife to drive there in her car. My father in law does not even car about the estimates any more , just tells me to get them fixed and have the shop call him...
