So this past Friday night I get a knock on my door at about midnight from the cops asking if I owned a blue camaro. Well I must say my heart dropped at just that moment kept thinking it got stolen or broken into. Well it turns out the car had got hit on the rear bumper and came close to taking it off.

Sadly I don't have a working phone and my camera phone sucks so I'll try and borrow a camera from a friend one day but till than no pictures are coming =(

Was curious if anyone had tips for a good body shop in Austin, I'm up in north austin but I'll drive down south to make sure the job gets done right.

Thanks y'all~

I've had pretty decent luck with Henna Chevrolet. I've been hit twice; once in the left rear wheel area, once in the right rear wheel area straight across the gills. I had to take it back once after they repaired the gills, but the second time they fixed it they did a great job.

You might have to keep on them a little bit, but I'm satisfied by the work they've done. I do have one more small issue, it looks like one of the clips on my bumper is busted and the piece buldges out slightly, but I've also had multiple instances of warranty work to the rear end done so my rear bumper has been off probably upwards of 10 times. Hopefully it's fixable, but it's not enough for me to want to go without the vehicle for any extended time.

ACC Collision on Mancaca did a great job for me after hitting a deer with the left front,
30hrs later I was driving it home, color match was good new gm fender and they added a SS nose piece to my 1LT, No extra , just had to buy the lower grill and air dam for the bottom.
