Default Any body shop recommendations in the Austin area?

Someone cut me off on 620 over the weekend ... My airbag even deployed, so I need to find a reputable shop that will actually replace the airbag properly in addition to hopefully doing good body work.

I'm thinking I'll call Lexus of Austin to see if they can recommend anybody, too.

Sorry to see your car messed up like that.
There is a body shop that Lexus of Austin sends their customers to is Berli's Body shop in Pflugerville. They only fix high dollar cars...

Call Annihilator Customs and talk to Roy Moncada. He fitted and painted my body kit on my IS300 and I'm pretty sure they work with insurance companies too. If you have FB you can check them out on there too. Roy has a very well known wide body IS300 that he has worked on by himself.

Thanks for the tips, guys. It looks like Geico found my car to be a total loss, though, so this is all for naught.

... At least unless I choose to buy the car back, but as much as I loved her, I don't think that would be a wise decision at this point.

Lol guess you had a bad experience? They handled LilS' IS-F and did a sick job with the kit. That was the only shop I heard about during my time in Austin
