Question In Need of Body shop for MAZDA's

I was recently hit by another driver who wasn't paying attention and backed out of his driveway onto a busy street and hit my pass side door. Now my pass mirror is broken my door don't open and my window has trouble going up and down now.
Just looking to see if anybody knows any shop that would take care of it. his insurance company will be paying for it... Any ideas or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

I have a shop and my suggestion is yes find another door, even if it's not the same color, it will be cheaper to have the shop jus spray it than have them fix the one u have

Man that sux. But I suggest you get another door so you don't have them fix that one with a **** ton of bondo. My driver door had damage and instead of fixing it I got another one with no damage so they could paint that when painting my car.

I'm kinda pcky about that so I got a red door to replace my red door so the inside of the door matches the car. So when I take off a door panel I don't see another color but of course any color door would work. Incase you don't find a red one.
