Amato's is excellent, although it's not in North County:

Amato's Auto Body
3848 Sorrento Valley Blvd
San Diego, CA 92121
(858) 455-6715

I've used other body shops (Caliber, Maaco paint), but Amato's is the only one that restored the car to its factory condition. They also cost an arm and a leg... and your firstborn. If insurance is picking up the tab then it's not an issue. If you're paying for it, see if they can find a used part.
