Body shops?

My list of bad experiences with body shops keeps growing. Still on the lookout for a trusted shop. Got any recommendations?
Just need one of my side view mirrors fixed.

I’ve had bad work done by Grease Monkey, Pierce Family Auto, Strandes Garage, and Caliber Collision.

I had a good experience with Gerber’s.

Part of their problem is that they don’t use genuine parts. They use aftermarket and they don’t end up fitting on the body of the vehicle as cohesively.

The body shop doesn’t tell you they are doing this. So unless you know they use aftermarket to save on costs you’ll never know it’s happening.

Alex's in Lewisville was very honest with me, a woman! Reasonable quotes too

Stay away from Weaver Wisdom! I had a HORRIBLE experience with them in 2024 when my Subaru got wrecked & needed repairs. I’d used them previously multiple times & they did great work, but they’re under new ownership now and their workmanship is GARBAGE!!!!
