Some women in a old suburu rust bucket ran into the passenger side of my 99.5 A-4 today , creasing both doors.To make matters worse she told the cops it was my fault that I was trying to illegaly pass her. The truth is she was trying to make a u-turn and drove into my car. anyway my word against hers and her passenger, won't get accident report until after thanksgiving. I am sick over this and want to get it repaired ASAP.
Does anyone know of a good bodyshop in North Jersey. Does anyone know how insurance companies find out who is at fault when there are two different stories and no eye witnesess.

I'm from North Brunswick, Central Jersey, I hit a deer with my 2 week old MY2000 A4 1.8T. I took a recommendation from someone on this site to a bodyshop called Gino's Auto Body Shop (732)297-0609 in Princeton on Rt. 27. They fix Audi's and use genuine Audi parts. Haven't got my car back yet, but they seemed pretty good. God luck with the car and dealing with the insurance company.

Hey Rick, Sorry about your misfortunate accident. I don't know where your located, But I use Dobb's Auto Body in Springfield, and there Paint color matching was practically undetectable.
Check them out.
This is the body shop which is exclusively used by Essex Sports Cars in Maplewood for all Audi repairs.

See Carl. He is a really personable and Nice guy.
These guys do perfect work, they are perfectionists. They have a great facility. They gel coat the parts of the car they do not paint. So you don't get that overspray crap all over your car. They fixed my 2 week old Jetta GLX that was crushed by a drunk driver. The car came back flawless!

Pakdaddy, I was the one who recommended Gino's Autobody. They are great. When did you bring your car in? How long did they say it would take to fix? Rich is very helpful if you have any questions.

Oh sorry for not giving the recognition Bonnie, thanks for the recommendation. I had the car towed there about a week ago, had to deal with alot of insurance beuracratic bs before I could get it to the shop. Rich said about a week for repairs, and one to two weeks to get parts in. I'm crossing my fingers about the repair, but I'm glad I could get a ecommendation from someone on this site. Thanks, again.
