D&V is hands down on one of the best shops I've been to. You might pay a little more, but the quality is top notch, as is their customer service.

Any other suggestions - I just got a quote from D&V for $1700, which seems ridiculous. I'm not trying to be cheap on the paint or anything but that is just way too much.

Not exactly sure where you are in VA, but approx 40 min north of you is EuroPros in Gaithersburg, MD. Debatably one of if not the best shop in the metro area. They are the only body shop in the area that I will trust w/my cars. OEM-like finish. Again not the cheapest, but I would venture to guess they will charge you less than $1700. Talk to Tom.

CS Body Shop in Springfield, VA did some good work for me. I would get more work done by them.

Europros
I live in Burke and talk my car to Europros. The two brothers who own the shop used to be the body and paint guys at WagenWorks. They are pricey, but damn their work is excellent. They just moved to a larger shop a few months ago. They know me well. Great guys to deal with. All they handle are high end cars.
