Seattle Area- recommended Tesla-friendly body shop?

[kpedraja]

So, this happened...

...and now I need to get my bumper and driver's side rear quarter panel repainted. Any suggestions for a body shop in the Seattle area that can handle Tesla repairs?

 

[IdaX]

Ugh sorry to see that dude. I think that somebody needs to take grandpa's keys away...

You might skip Accurate Auto Body. They did a good job repairing my Model 3, but wow was it slllloooooowwwww. Took about 5 months. For your consideration!

Accurate also had the highest quote out of any of them. I went with Tesla’s own shop in Bellevue who quoted the cheapest (by quite some way). Result was fine. Was a rocker panel replacement and blending.

Yowza. I'm hoping this will end up just being paint or, at worst, the bumper cover needing to be replaced, but that's way too long.

I didn't even know that page existed. Thank you.

I had my bumper repaired at Pacific Auto Body when it was located across the street from the old SoDo SC. I was rear ended with 2 small punctures and thought about just getting it replaced with new pre-painted bumper from Tesla but was convinced to do a repair since the car was a year old and they could better blend the paint.

Cost was about the same $1100 (repair) vs $1200 (new) covered w/ insurance and I can't even tell any difference- looks perfect. They did quote a week and did not follow-up. I called to check in after a week and they had it done within a day but it felt like they started when I called but not sure. Either way it was only a week and job was well done.

Bumping this thread to see how your repair went. Tesla sent me the same list of PNW repair shops in post #3, they steered me away from the Tesla Body shop in Bellevue though. This might be beyond what they do there so I am checking for recommendations, quality is first but speed and few comebacks is important too.

^ oops didn’t realize this was M3 forum, still would like feedback on the repair shops though!
