Clk 55 Amg Hit By Fire Engine

Guys my CLK 55 amg got scraped by a fire engine,

Luckily its only damanged the front left panel near the headlight.

Bascialy ive taken it to a few bodyshops and yeah I will get it fixed.

I understand their method is to pop out the dent, match the paints and fil it then pain it, thats ala standard but what I am worried about is that they are going to put it in the oven ( im quite sure thats standad) WHat I am worried about is that it gets really hot in the oven is that bad for the cars electronics and wires and everything, like should htey be taking out the headlamps or anything. any replies with you guys experince happen.

Ive made sure that they are goingto match the side panel with thee colour of th rest of the car (blakc mettalic btw)

Hopefully everything wil be ok.

I'm sure that oven is not a oven like what you have at home.

they usually use thermal heat lamp or whatevery they call it.

dont worry.. everything will be fine

You are fortunate.

There are so many expressions that never have a situation where they are appropriate to use.

What did they say when asked: "where's the fire?"
