Looks like I may need to make a claim. Any worthy body shops near Portland Oregon? Car got swiped in the lot at work. Someone backed out and the front bumper cap put a nice scape in the side. there is a small dent under the sale panel about the size of a softball. Paint has a crack under the door handle.

Tom Black recommended Straightline Body & Paint in SE Portland. I talked to Kevin there and he was a wealth of information. He said the crack is bondo and the swipe can probably be buffed out. There is one clear chip that you could put touch-up paint on. The bad news is that since it is a hit and run, insurance will likely only cover the swipe and additional work like the rust bubbles and damage subsequently incurred by the bondo would not. So as you look at repairing the two panels and repainting them the project snowballs. Paint matching was also a concern as he strictly uses Sikkens and there is no match to my car. He also pointed out that the rear fender didn't match the rear deck already. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
