Cheap body shop in Austin?

[Brisketexan]

My wife drives a mini-van that she hates. The time has come for us to get it ready to sell. Mechanically, it's in fine condition. However, it has a dent on the hatch on the back (not huge), needs a new license plate light assembly on the back, and the driver's side door hinge is busted (the door swings out all the way without that catch stopping it).

So, we need to have someone hammer/pull the dent out, put on a new light assembly, and put in a new hinge. We do NOT want to have to buy a new hatch, a new door, etc. -- the way the insurance company body shops do everything.

As a kid, I remember that when we had an accident claim in our household, we collected the insurance money (say, $2500), drove the car down to Piedras Negras one weekend, and had them do the work for $500 (by just repairing panels, not replacing them, etc.). That's what I'm looking for -- only here, and not in Mexico.

Any recommendations?

Lisa's body shop on Old Lockhart Road is what you want.

Caveat: I have not done any business with them since they were on South First street,North of Jovita's, back when that sort of place could afford to be on that part of South First. So it's been a while.

That being said, they were straight cash money when I got hit driving my Father in law's car.
