Need a good body shop in northwest Chicago suburbs

Hello:
Something metallic bounced off the hood of my Camry and then hit my windshield while I was driving. I now have a dent and a scratch in my hood down to the bare metal and some scratches in my windshield. Also along the way I have also accumulated some door dings and scratches in my bumpers. Can anybody recommend a good body shop in the nortwest Chicago suburbs to work on these problems?

The dealer where I bought my car has their own body shop but I am somewhat leery of bringing my car into a place where their prime function is to sell cars and do mechanical repairs.

Also, is there any thing that I should look for in a body shop when going to get my estimate (other than repaired cars)?

Thanks!

Thanks...I'll check into A & L. Has anyone had experience with either Schaumburg Auto Body or Royal Coach (in Bartlett, I think)?
