Default New paint help...

So, my crossfire is going in Monday for hail damage repair. The most recent estimate from the insurance company was just over $7500. The estimate covers replacing the hood and the entire passenger side of the vehicle. For the top and the driver side, they are paying for paintless dent repair. Since the Crossfire was my first new car purchase and I plan on keeping it indefinitely, I think I am going to throw in the extra cash to have the entire car repainted so everything matches. I am also going to have them take care of the areas that are showing signs of rust mentioned in another thread. I have never had a car repainted so I'm wondering if there is anything I should know or questions I should ask when I take it in? I would appreciate any information or recommedations I can get? Thanks!

I tried taking pictures of the hail damage to the panels, but the camera on my phone won't pick up the dimples. I have attached pictures of the broken cowl, tail light and a picture of the hail.
