When the Damage Is on the Outside

Not every bump is a full-blown wreck. Sometimes it is one door that got clipped in a lot off Collins Road. Sometimes a hood took a hit from a trailer on Interstate 30. Body repair covers the outer panels and how they fit together. We look at the panel, the metal behind it and the gaps around it. Then we write up the work, one line at a time. You see the plan, and you decide.

What Body Repair Can Cover

Each car is different. Here are the jobs that show up most often, and each one gets its own line on your estimate.

  • Door skins and shells

    A dented or creased door can often be fixed in place. If the shell is folded, we will show you why a new one makes more sense.

  • Front fenders

    Fenders bolt on, so they are easier to swap. We still check whether a repair would do the job for less.

  • Quarter panels

    These are welded to the body, so we try hard to save them. When they must be cut out, we tell you before anything happens.

  • Hoods and trunk lids

    Bent hoods and trunk lids get straightened or replaced. Then we make sure the latch and hinges work smoothly.

  • Even gaps all around

    Panel gaps should look the same on both sides. We adjust until doors, hood and trunk line up evenly.

  • Flush edges

    A panel can sit too high or too low next to its neighbor. We set it flush, so it looks like it was never touched.

  • Rust-proofing inside

    Bare metal from a repair gets sealed and coated. That keeps rust from sneaking in later.

  • Paint to finish

    Repaired panels get primed, color-matched and blended. You should not be able to tell which one we worked on.

How the Job Goes

  1. 01

    We look it over with you

    You show us the damage, and we take a close look. We check behind the panel for bent supports. Then you get a written estimate with every charge listed. We go over it together, so nothing is left to guess.

  2. 02

    We fix and fit

    The panel gets repaired or replaced. Next we hang it and adjust the gaps and edges. We open and close every door and lid to make sure it feels right. If we spot anything new, you get a call first.

  3. 03

    We paint and check

    Primer, color and clear go on in the paint booth. After reassembly we look at the car under bright light. Then we walk it with you at pickup. You see the fix up close.

Why You Will Like Working With Us

Repair before replace

If a panel can be saved, we save it. It usually costs you less and keeps the car more original.

Gaps you can see

We care about the lines between panels. Uneven gaps are the first thing people notice, so we sort them out.

Charges you understand

Each line on the estimate has a short reason beside it. You never have to wonder what you are paying for.
