My Camry CE (yr 2000) got into an accident recently. You can see the damage at

estimated damage is about $4500.00 from AllState. Outof which I'll be paying $1000 deductible. Now I have to find an autobody shop in Queens area in New York City. My insurance AllState gave me a few AllState affiliated shops around Queens and Brooklyn. But to me it's really hard to know which would be good. Should I take it to one of these AllStat affiliated shops or somewhere else? Do Toyota Dealers do repairs? Do you have a good one to recommend?

There was a recent article on NY's 7th(?) street "drive-up" mechanics. DRIVE-UP car fixing! Luv your nooeyorkers!
