Last night I hit my car in the snow storm on front left and broke bumper and bent left side. I will post some pics as soon as I have them available. I live in the Bronx and looking for a shop within the tri-state areas preferebly Bronx or Queens. If anyone know of a good shop please let me know. Thank you so much!

After checking out few places I decided to go with MB dealer even though it cost little bit more b/c they get paint job done by MB certified shop, everything else they do in the dealer. Warrentee is also provided by the dealer and not the shop. I left my car at the dealer for over a week and hoping to get it back tomorrow (Friday.) I will let you know how good they are, only then I will recommand you to them.

Be aware if you have a sports package they price difference could be 1k or more which is what in my case. Post some pics if you have, I maybe able to give you a rough estimate based on my experience dealing with this for past few weeks. Also if you know what you need replaced for your car call parts dept. and find out prices and double the cost for labor and you'll be pretty close to what dealer will want. There are other place who are not certified may charge you less for labor so it really depends on taking chance.

I took to MB @ white plains. I still don't have the car yet, will keep you updated. If you have a friend at Larchmont then you should take there you'll probably get a good deal.
