Pittsburgh BMW Body Work?

Could anyone recommend a good collision center around Pittsburgh to take my e92 in for some work? I'm an idiot and I backed into/scrapped the side of my car.

I thought of going to A&L BMW Collision Center in Monroeville. Any feedback on their work? The collision center manager seems really good. But, I can't find any feedback on his work.

I travel all the way to Nick's Auto Body in New Castle PA as they are the best I have found by far!
I would not take it to a dlr body shop.

But, if using insurance.. Are you seeing any pros to the dealer shop? For some reason, I was really leaning toward A&L's body shop after having met the manager. He comped some things for me a while back and did a great spray on a mirror cover.

Any feedback specific to A&L?

btw, thank's for the two suggestions. I'm checking them out also! Appreciate it, guys!

Unhappy

Well.. a wrench has been thrown in my plans. Due to the hail damage and general tornado damage around here from last week, body shops are pretty bogged down.

I picked a great time to be an idiot. I hate me.



Of course, it's been sunny and beautiful out everyday since the damage occurred. Just the kinda day you'd want to drive around in your shiny Arctic 335 coupe... F me.
