Ed Juniors are friendly enough and very helpful. Just make sure your floor isnt damaged, that is all.
But personally i would go back to Ken Mcadams in the hutt if i had to certify another car.

I'd be worried about running any, in case it caused danger to manifold.

Thats pretty standard, its a wof issue as well. If the sill or part of the chassis has been damaged, in the event of a crash the car ends up folding there, not how the manufacturer intended, which could end up in a very bad way for the occupants.
