need advice on fixing my mashed up CS

Greetings All. I'm an infrequent poster, but I love the site.

Well, I managed to bang up my '07 CS on Sunday. I was driving on Sunday afternoon and stepped on the gas coming out of a turn and the car fish-tailed. The rear-end ended up on the muddy shoulder, and by the time I got it under control again, I managed to glance the left nose of my car off of a guardrail at low speed. I feel like an idiot for getting into that situation. I suppose I wasn't taking enough care driving given that the roads were slightly wet from the overnight rains. It was a stupid mistake, and I've learned a tough lesson. Thankfully, no one was hurt, and no other cars were involved.

So, I live in West Chester, PA, and am looking for a shop to get my car back in shape. My insurance company will let me use whoever I want, and I was originally thinking about letting the local dealer deal with everything. But, my insurance company recommends letting Brandywine Coachworks handle the body work and let them sub-contract out the mechanical work. If I do this, then all of the work is guaranteed for life by my insurance company. Has anyone used these guys before? Any opinions? Thanks for listening.

you may want to get a recommendation from your dealership, especially if the car is still under warranty.

our insurance company makes "suggestions" where we should take the car, but they have their own interests in mind (contracts, etc.), not necessarily which place will do the best job on repairing the car.
