It took longer than I expected and I was told at least one delay was due to ordering the wrong part. Communications was one-sided. And I think that if you are working on electric cars you should have a way to charge them. But from a repair standpoint you did a good job.

Husteads Auto Body (San Pablo Ave,) did a fine job on this work. Once the parts were available they finished the job very quickly and I received my car earlier than expected. They also helped with transportation to rental car agency. Barbara Rydlander
