Calling all Seattle area owners

I have had a bad couple weeks! Long story short, I absolutely had to go out on one of the days we had ice on the road and my car slid into another car when it was parked. Its not much damage to the front end but it would require painting. I'm thinking I might pick up a Roush front bumper and have someone put that on. So, gives me an excuse to mod a bit I guess. If you know of some place good who can install it for me I'd appreciate that.

Then, I came out of an appointment the other night and found a guy looking over my mustang. I thought he was admiring it and unfortunately that wasn't the case. He didnt see my car when he was backing out and scraped my car up a bit near the rear fender and left a 4 inch crease dent on the flat part around the fender/wheel well. This will need to be repaired.

I actually tried paintless dent repair and buffing out the scratches but I'm not happy with the results We were trying to cover things without insurance but it looks like we might need to.

Anyone know of a really good repair shop for damage the guy did to my car? Preferably someone who is good with paint too. I want them to match the kona blue as best as possible. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Emil, so sorry to hear about your car! I've always liked Thoroughbred Collison Center down in Auburn for repairs/paint. They do a lot of classic cars and restorations. And Malo's Auto Body in West Seattle (White Center) has done great work on my car over the years.

Too bad we don't have a Body & Paint Shop at Bowen Scarff any more!

Thanks guys.

Brian do you think one of them might do a better job at matching the factory kona paint and avoid overspray? I've also heard about Central Collision in Kent, Exhibition Collision in Kent and Murray's in Kent. If any one stands out to you I'd love to hear it.
