    My sister recently had work done by Crofton motors on Sundrive Road - I posted a question similar to yours here and they were recommended. I can spot a couple of flaws on the results but I've got an eye for that kind of thing and its nothing worse that comes out of the factory new. I'd recommend them - price was good and no funny stuff (she dealt with them herself and I've known at least one other well regarded body shop that takes financial advantage of unsuspecting females - not a problem in your case but at least you know that they're honest.)

    They also did work for an elderly aunt of mine previously and same story - good work at a good price.
