What's a good body shop for a W211 in Ventura or L.A. County?

Aaargh! After 2,5 years of dent free driving I backed into a low pole a few days ago. It created an imprint about the size of a fist in the right rear part of the back bumper under the taillight. Does anyone know of a good body show where I can have this fixed in Ventura or L.A. County?

Platinum Coach Works in Covina did a fine job for my uncle's '04 CLK500. It was rear ended by a 4x4 truck and it took the trunk out completely.

Their number is (626) 915-4953

Why is it some people here think that their MB MUST be repaired by an MB Shop, and yet some dealers tell you they can accept the car & get it done for you, or you can take the car to any reputable body shop, and bring it back to them if there are any electronic/Air suspension issues that remain?
