Palo Alto or Bay Area Body Shop?

My friend's new 2012 997S was just rear-ended by an AT&A service truck. It only has 745 miles. Does anybody know of a recommended or certified Porsche body shop in the Bay Area?

Mathews-Carlsen body shop in Palo Alto behind the old Carlsen Porsche dealer (now Audi)

Cavallino collision right down the way from there.

Not sure if either is porsche certified or not but they do good work. Both do lots of high end cars. Carlsen has more Porsche experience than almost anyone else I'd guess.

Another amazing shop is Anderson-Behel bodyshop on Walsh in Santa Clara. They are very familiar working on the newest Porsches and I have seen their Porsche work up close. As a stickler for correct body repairs I have to say they are the best I have ever seen. I havent had them repair any of MY Porsches yet, but went to them with my girlfriends escape. Their customer service was WAY beyond any expectations, but unfortunately that car was totaled. They are friends with Stevens creek Porsche but entirely capable on their own. Talk to Jeff and he will make you feel right at home!
