 Gilson's did a half-ass job on my SVX, and charged me $1000 more than we agreed upon without contacting me beforehand.  I think they just assumed that since it was an insurance claim they could just jack up the price... never mind that I was paying any overages out of pocket to keep the insurance company from totaling the car.
With the exception of that one sand damage claim, I always go to Shaber Ave. Autobody.  They're pricey, but Bruce is more detail oriented than I am and has never let me down.  I've sent a bunch of other people his way, and only Cody came back unsatisfied.
