My wife's Miata was run backed into on friday and I am looking for advice

as to the BEST Miata body shop in the Atlanta,GA area.  The front left

fender and door have been destroyed.  It is a 94 M edition and I am very

concerned with getting a perfect paint job, preferably better than the

factory since the montego blue chips so easily.



  Do I have the right to demand the the entire car be painted?   



The story if interested:



About 2 months ago someone backed into the car barely touching the bumper.

They did not hear the horn.  The next day I ordered Crazy Red Air Horns and

Lights to fix this problem.  On friday a person driving a land cruiser

decided to back out of the turning lane.  My wife hit the horn and the car

kept coming.  After the impact it just kept coming running down the fender

and then crushing the door in.  The top of the bumper was about at the top

of the door.  When the woman finally did stop she said it was a good thing

she heard the horn because she did not feel the impact or the crushing of

the car. AARRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!



Anyway, any advice on where to go would in atlanta would be greatly

appreciated.



Thanks,

Will
