Default Arlington area body shops?

My wife’s friend had her car backed into when she visited us.

Any recommendations for basic bodywork in the area?

For non-porsche, older cars (like my the ones my children drive and occasionally wreck), I use Matchless on Rt 7 in Vienna.

I've used them a few times - they do a serviceable job. FWIW, even though it's a Vienna address, it's much closer to Reston and Great Falls - just east of 7 and Baron Cameron.

I miss Wagonwork when they were run by the father.

We have been extremely happy with the attention to detail and prices at D&D Auto Body in Rockville - not right around the corner from you but they really do good work and fix things right (including things that were previously fixed wrong--sticklers that way).
