Need the best body shop on LI

So after a long day at work, I come to my car to see that some mother-f***** slammed his door into my car's driver side door with so much force he chipped the paint down to the metal (or at least it looks like that). Funny thing is I wasn't even parked next to anyone on that side. Either it happened the night before or someone vandalized my car.

I need a GOOD body shop near Nassau, LI.

Thank you.

I've heard a lot about Fender Benders

However I am wondering if they will have to repaint the entire door panel, if there is a chip about an inch long in length and 1/4 inch in width. I would much prefer a touch up job, rather than having to repaint the door.

Give em a call tomorrow or drive by, I'm sure any shop will want to see it to make the right choice on what to do (in the long run.) -- They will give you a good deal either way.

Alright I am receiving conflicting opinions here and the last time I went to a recommended body shop on just one opinion was a mistake.

Can anyone else provide further testimonials and/or feedback for the body shops listed in this thread?

i.e. Fender Benders and Rallye BMW.

I'm sure they can do it. They will even blend it to wherever you want if you want the best color match as possible, but of course thats extra..... Just got talk to them..... they'll even give a good price depending on your work!
