Crash!
I knocked my Coupe into a honda today...and the right side of the bumper is scratched...and a bit dented on the fender....i was quoted $1500 by Downtown motors which does repairs for MB, porsche and other cars...it is an expensive lesson..anyone know of a cheaper dealer around Los Angeles?

Thanks..i will post pics of my disfigured car later..

Hope no one is injured. The insurance company may have a list of body shops for you to shop around.

cheaper dealer around LA?
"cheaper dealer" is an oxymoron. Go to a good body shop. MB paint & body work prices are outrageously high....but the work is good.
