2. 2
   Ask questions about how the repair will be performed. This will show you who plans on taking shortcuts that may hurt you in the long run.
3. 3
   Check if they offer a warranty for their work.
4. 4
   See if they will do extra work for free, oftentimes they will remove another ding or two for free, or will repair an area that someone did a crap job fixing.
