I need a body shop

Hello Fellow EVOers,
My 2003 EVO 8 (108,000 miles) got hit behind in a traffic and the speed was only 10 mph. A new Chrysler 300M hit it and according to the body shop, the repairs are $11,800. I know it's a jacked up price by the body shop where it's in now and All-state just declared it total. No damaged on the frame but mostly rear bumper, can't close the trunk, front bumpers, bent inter-cooler/radiator, etc. Total parts cost is $7600.
Now I want to keep the car and it will have a salvage title. The salvage cost is $1100. We live around the East Bay/San Jose/Livermoore California area and was wondering if there is a reputable EVO body shop here I can use to have the car repaired. Thanks.

You should consider having a shop cut out the damaged sections and tubing it. See about 8:30 to get an idea of what I mean
