I was at a body shop a few months ago because I got rear-ended. They listed their prices on the wall, and I thought it was interesting that they had separate rates for working on Tesla and non-Teslas. Depending on the work, the prices were anywhere from 20% more to triple.

Most places charge extra for aluminum body-work.

Where do you live that there are enough Teslas to warrant special signs for them? Bay area?

Nope, LA. The shop is in El Segundo, CA. So near the fairly well-off beach cities (e.g. Manhattan Beach) as well as some Tesla facilities (a few miles from a dealership and also their Hawthorne hanger)

Hmm, that is a very interesting finding.
