Sorry to hear that your baby has had a boo-boo. 
Hopefully you're OK.
I don't know of Paragon - I have heard of them, but cannot remember details other than that they do specialize in yourapeein cars.
I have heard many good things of Automotive Collision Specialists in Cary (919-465-3433). Personally, my friend who bought my 964 later had a fender-bender and I had her take it there because of their reputation. They had the car for two months - why? Because Porsche sent them a defective fender, and they would not budge on it, ACS fought Porsche until they sent them another fender that fit properly. Any other shop would have probably just slapped some extra filler in there or just left the gap and gone ahead with it. These guys would not settle. I was very impressed. And the paint and everything else was done very well.
Cary is near Raleigh and these guys are worth the $40 that the tow will cost you.
HTH,
Michael

Thanks Micheal. Yes, I am fine and so was my passenger. The car is another story.
I will probably be contacting around 3 potential shops for the needed work.
Thanks for your help. Hopefully, I will hear from a few more Rennlisters.

Thanks Dell but I do have a trailer if it comes to that. I am hoping someone has an opinion on Paragon Collision Repair and maybe a few others.

collision repairs?
ALWAYS remember that the condition of shop and equipment is important to where to bring your car. We have the Cellette frame repair system that the factory (many factories) suggest. IT is the ONLY equipment to be used in frame repair. They should also have a Glasso Paint mixing system, again, the ONLY paint for a Porsche. havefundriveporschetakechances!-Mark
