Parking guy (valet parking of my building) damaged my car scratching a wide part of the left rear side. No functional damage fortunately.Now, the garage company (SP+) admitted fault and they will cover the damage. However, today I received a letter from the company. They say they will get an estimate from their preferred body shop to have my car immediately repaired. If I do not want to have it repaired at their body shop I have to send others estimates and they will only pay the amount of the cheapest.Also, It looks like they are repairing the car without involving their insurance and pay the damage themselves directly.
Guess what? I looked for reviews of their body shop and there are very few ones and a couple are very bad saying that in the past he was involved into insurance scams. So for me is a no-no.(Also, I do not know how they work, with kind of cars etc...)
I very believe that their estimate will be the lowest one, no matter what I send to them. So if this happens, is there anything I could do to have the car repair by my trusted body shop and receive the full amount?Is this something worth to go through legal ways eventually?
P.s. It is a 2021 BMW G20 with only few miles.
Thanks everybody for any advice on how to proceed.
