A large truck tried to pass my parked car in a narrow street. It has caused damage to a two panels and an alloy wheel. My insurer is to arrange repairs on a no fault basis. Initial view is that its not a write off.

The car is 6 months old and value is 32k. Insurer stated they will use their approved repairer. I am due to speak to a loss adjuster. 

I guess i want the repairs to be of good quality. Are there any pitfalls to be aware of? I suppose if tge panels and alloy are replaced with new, its likely to work out ok. 

I think ill run this plan past the main dealer too.
