Ugh. I just got rear-ended a few hours ago on the 10 freeway. Fortunately the damage doesn't look too bad.

Any recommondations on a good body shop in west LA would be appreciated.

Hey,
I live in West LA and HIGHLY recommend Howard Brown and Sons. It's on Olympic between Barrington and Bundy. I haven't had them work on my M3 yet (crosses fingers) but they worked on the last few bemers that i've had and they are fantastic and not outrageously expensive.

Speak with either Dan or Brad. They are very nice.

Good luck!

Bastoli Auto Body in Inglewood. No one's better at matching paint.

Platinum Auto in Marina del Rey. It's down the street from the Costco.
You have to talk with Sue... if she's still there. The rest of the front office people were useless.

You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
