Question Top notch body/paint shops

Well, it's been about 2 weeks since my '02 MBP WRX got vandalized in San Francisco. I was parked out on Clement and 5th, in front of some Asian coffee shop type thing. Went to a club for my homegirl's birthday and came back with key marks in 3 different places and my front two tires were let out. Luckily, the tires weren't slashed, just let out. But what I'm worried about is the paint. I know how fragile Subaru paint is and I don't want any issues in the future about rust. The key marks are really deep down to the metal.

I was wondering if you guys have any recommendations on an outstanding shop I can get my car back to shape at. It would be a total of 4 panels = front driverside quarter panel, front passenger side quarter panel, rear passenger side door, rear passenger side quarter panel. I live out in Fremont, so I would prefer something as close as possible. I've heard of Jensen's (sp?), but can't seem to find any info on it. I'm not worried about the price, just a top notch job. Thanks in advance.

Sunny Autobody, 850 Potrero. Talk to Denny, tell him you know me (I'm Ryan) and Anthony (r8c3w1thm3 or whatever the hell his SN is), and you should get a good price. They're a topnotch, AAA shop that has helped a few i-Clubbers in the past.

Edit: D'oh, reread your post and saw you're in Fremont. Sunny Autobody is here in S.F., but I still highly recommend it. Oh, Creative Kustoms in San Jose is great too! George and Elizabeth are really cool people, I had my sideskirts done there

I live in Fremont and went to around the San Jose area, Creative Customs does a good job, and take pride in their quality.

Tams Autobody 415-885-5221 ask for Eric swing by the shop and you'll see the kind of work they do, and they are Triple A certified. Just Tell Eric that Mark with the RS sent you I'm sure he'll work out a deal for you ...

Union City Auto Body is pretty good. Took care of an NSX and Supra widebody that needed work. I saw some subies there as well. But since I'm in San Jose, I vote for Creative Customs.
