Default Recommended body shops in Orlando or Daytona?

So, I just got done crashing my Miata at turn 5 Rd Atl. Looks like it's just a crumpled fender but I can't be sure.

Any suggestions for a trustworthy body shop? Car is currently near Orlando International and will be in Daytona on Thursday.

I need it inspected to make sure it's safe to drive.


Posted on Miata forum but checking here just in case.

There is a place called Daya's in Longwood - they also have a location in Orlando proper. They do work on some high end rides - factory cert for Aston, Lambo, Bentley, ect.... The owner of the Orlando store is AJ and is a Porsche person... I met him a couple of years ago at a DE. His brother runs the Longwood shop.

Ron Zitza at Zotz Racing is another good source beside Tecce. Both are experts.

Yep, Stu is riding his motorcycle all over the country, but Rob Greenwood is there and does a terrific job!
