Thanks for the help boys, the damage is not that bad at all considering I will be getting a new bodykit anyway straight after christmas. I will be taking it down to Blackburn Motor Body who are world class and are the authorised repairers for Porshe, Lexus & Mercs.

The guy who hit me was around 90 years old and absolutely had no clue. I rang up his insurance and they basically told me that he had four claims in the last two months, what a joke.

What ever you do, don't go to a certain panel beaters on Molan St in Ringwood (there are about 3-4 on Molan St - PM me if you want the name of the one I'm talking about).

I got a $6,000 quote for a repair, then took my car to a trusted (had work done there before) garage and they quoted me $3,500 for it!

There is a good PBeaters... Symes (on Blackburn Rd, cnr Kind St). I bit more expensive (couple of hundred), but they do a GREAT job. Prob, a bit far from Glen Wav. though (~ 30-40 mins)

I'm with inark on this one - Palm Motor Body Works. Don't think u can go wrong there really - even if u do have an issue they'll sort it out quickly and in your favour.

It took me two months to get my car fixed.. they're a nice bunch of blokes and did a good job, but if you end up like me, its not worth it - go somewhere else.

Admittedly it took palm about 2 months to get mine done too - but they did give me a loan car and every second my car spent there was worth it.

Those guys are flat out there and they take pride in their work. Id rather that than some shitty 2 day job that will look cheap in a year or two.
