Now there's some Class A advice. I concur wholeheartedly. My Subaru dealer doesn't have a body shop, and since with insurance you have the right to take it
anywhere, I took mine to our very prestigious Cadillac dealer where they were fascinated to meet a BRZ for the first time and took tender loving care of it. The three-layer metallic paint matched beautifully. It was around $7500, but just the $250 deductible out of my pocket, so take yours to the Best Place in Town and just let them do it.
P.S.: My
second wreck looked just like yours, and the Cadillac-style repair got another A+. Someone else in this thread estimated $7000 for yours, but mine got fixed for about half that.
Good Luck and Best Wishes!
P.P.S: Do you think our cars might attract a little bit too much of the wrong kind of attention?
