Does anyone have any body shops they’d recommend in the DC area? Or any they’d recommend I stay away from? I had a minor collision and have a shallow dent in the driver’s side door.  
  
  
  
 Thank you!

Check a recent issue of the Washington Consumer Checkbook for recommendations. They do periodic reviews. I’ve used Auto Body of Vienna and always been happy with them.
