Scratched my car door today because I misjudged a corner. I'm thinking of sending it to the closest authorised repair shop but I'm wondering if I can get it cheaper if I go to an independent workshop instead. But I don't know any good ones in Ipoh, so I'm tempted to just go to the nearest workshop here.
Any advice? Also, how much do you think it'll cost?

Hello, student pilot here.
Recently while I was doing my instrument practices with my instructor as the safety pilot, I was doing my STAR procedure and just as I passed the waypoint (and did my RTs), I started to descend to the new minimum altitude as I usually did. My instructor, however, told me that the best time to descend is actually a few miles before the next/second waypoint (or two) in order to be clear of terrain.
It made sense so I pretty much cemented that in me now, but it made me wonder; when and how do you calculate the best time to descend? Or do you just descend to the minimum altitude immediately and then maintain that altitude until the next one? How different is it depending on the aircraft (for people who have flown multiple types)?
EDIT: I am including this picture for clarity.
