good body shops? Just last night I dented my Trans Am for the first time. I've only lived here for a few years and though the yellow pages yield many options, I'd prefer to get some quality opinions. Can anyone recommend a body shop in the Seattle area?
Metro Auto Rebuild in Capital Hill did a pretty good job on my Formula.

Thanks for the tips guys.
I took my car into ARA Collision this morning. Cost of repair was estimated at $1360 or so, estimates from other places ran around $1400-$1500. Metro Auto Rebuild quoted me for just under $2000 for what looked like the same amount of work, so I passed on that one.

I have known the guys at Ken's Redmond Auto Body for many moons (before Redmond Way was a one way street). They did some work on my car. They are a bit on the pricey side but they know their stuff and stand by their work for the life of the car. They fixed stuff on my car most places did not even see.

If you are willing to go down to Tacoma, check out Salantino's Auto Body... they have done some stuff for a few of the Seahawks players' rides and quite a few show rides. They are a bit pricey, but they do top noch work. The painter is very good and the final prep/detailer is one of the best in the area.
