Thumbs down Somebody hit me! Need a body shop!?

I was stuck in traffic today on Olympic just before Beverly Dr. heading E. I was in the far right lane and traffic was STOPED. A gap of about 3/4 of a car length opened up on my left (everyone was still stoped) and since there was a parked car up ahead I merged in as far as I could... My car was 3/4 of the way in. While I was waiting for traffic to move a women in a Jeep Cherokee behind me let go of her brake and rolled right into me (it was an automatic, "she didn't see me")!

The damage isn't that bad, she hit right in between my door and the rear wheel well, it's dented in and has a nice scratch. Any recommendations on a body shop who can fix it anywhere around WLA?

Thanks for the help,

Joe

No, it just poped that part of the fender inwards and gave me a nice swirly scratch. I will try and post a picture this evening.

Well.. not to bring another bodyshop thread around...

But my wife got hit yesterday too!

She was on the 2-15 going about 70mph and some idiot in a super lifted truck started to change lanes right on towards the car... she sped up but he still caught the bumper and rear part of the fender. He almost sent her into a spin but she caught it luckily.... The guy Im sure didn't really appreciate the call to CHP because the first thing the CHP said to him was that his truck was illegaly lifted wayy to high.. and then started asking about his headlamps and all that.

The worst part about it all is that my wife is all shook up and doesn't really want to drive it anymore...

Where am I gonna take it... yes, that one place.. MOB Works...

Jose-I got the EK back. Flawless. Hands down the best work he`s done for me. Even the engine bay is perfect

Swing by next time you are at your parents after 5pm.
