First impression with auto body repair, however, is counter-intuitive. A shop with a nice office, ample parking, branding and so forth will charge more than a shop without the overhead. The low overhead shop stands as much a chance of restoring a car as the high overhead shop when the proprietor leads repairs.

I hit a deer at the front center of my car. Estimates varied from 1600 to 3300. Guess who I used, despite my intuitions? The low overhead, proprietor-led shop. The restoration was perfect.
