Default Any good body shop to treat paint and bumpers in MD?

Hi, I live in Silver Spring, and I need to have the Z checked upside down.

The car got damaged by a nearby fire on the parking garage.

The extreme heat and smoke damaged the clear coat on the paint and the chrome door handles at first sight. But since the heat was so intense to rust the handles, I need somebody to take a look all the way around the car to see if any other metals, paint, or seals were damaged or dried out.

I am reporting this to the insurance today since I just got notice from our apartment complex that we are on our own....


Finally, to make me even happier, I had a small accident on a parking space at the Giant lot where a BMW X5 hit me from behind when I was already stopped after finished backing up out of the space.

I got a big scratch and dent on the middle of the rear bumper. I would like to have this also fixed.


I came here because we really value our car, and I would like somebody that is specialized and recommended for our 350Z, so he knows where to check for this types of heat/smoke damage and be able to repair it.

I thought about taking it to Function Tuned or something similar since they do great work with Zs, but I do not know if the insurance will be ok with this.

Any suggestions?? Thanks....

BTW, I guess this is going to crush the future resale value on the car since everything is going to get to the history
