Hope someone is able to help you out. I hope you're okay buddy. And the fedz are worried about legalizing marijuana.

I'd ask in the regional sections, or ask to move the thread there.

Ow !

Yeah, I'd ask in the regional forums about where to go. The locals there would best be able to answer that question.

marco collision centers. They do a great job, although a bit pricey. I'd trust them because they're so well known. I think there's a few in the LA area. I think they swap your parts for new oem parts too.

Wow fuck that guy that hit you man, I hope you find a great shop that'll return your car back to normal if not better condition before.

Since he's gonna end up paying for it all I'd say go with Western Auto in Gardena. It's where toyota sends their fleet cars for repairs.

DTM Auto Body is supposedly pretty good.

I recommend Fountain Valley Bodyworks though.
