Insurance Claims
Getting insurance to pay for auto repairs should be simple, right? Especially if you’ve been paying your premiums for years, if not decades. Unfortunately, most insurance companies start with low-ball estimates. When presented with a proper repair plan, many will omit even necessary parts and procedures. This slows the repair process and discourages customers (which is the whole point). Stay a step ahead by choosing a body shop that works for YOU, not the insurance company.
Paintless Dent Removal (PDR)
We’ve been providing PDR to the Los Angeles area since 2004. PDR is a less invasive alternative to traditional body work, saving both time and money. If PDR is not the solution, our collision repair department can give you other options.

Paint Protection Film (PPF)
PPF or ‘clear bra’ is a thin, flexible material that adheres to the vehicle providing a durable shield. It is self-healing, stain resistant, and has superior optical clarity while protecting paint from cosmetic damage (i.e., rock chips, scratches, scuffs, and sunlight). This type of protection maximizes your vehicle’s resale value.
Tinting
We offer ONLY ceramic tint due to its functionality of both heat reduction and UV protection, the latter being especially important for skin protection. It also reduces glare without compromising visibility, which makes it perfect for use on all windows, glass roofs, and front windshields. Ceramic tint still offers privacy, but no signal interruption caused by the metal in regular tint and will significantly reduce flying broken glass during accidents. This type of tint checks all the boxes and doesn’t compromise safety.
Ceramic Coating
Ceramic coating protects vehicle paint from everyday blemishing substances. Applied by hand, it blends with the paint to add a hydrophobic protection layer. Ceramic coating can also be used on the vehicle's interior, especially recommended if light colored. Extend the life of PPF and car wraps by applying this coat first.
Auto Detailing
We offer several options on mini or full auto detailing. Options include: clay bar, waxing, multiple polishing stages involving wool pad and rubbing compound, foam pad and glaze, and microfiber pad with ultra-fine paste to remove holograms from paint.
Other Services
Bumper Scratch Repair
Scratched bumpers are the most common damage. Traditional repair involves removing the bumper and related parts for repainting. For minor scratches, we use a technique that can be done with the bumper in place.
Paint Correction
Paint correction removes scratches from paint without repainting. Although this process is time consuming and technical, the result is a glossy shine (if the clear coat has not been penetrated or dried out by the sun).
Lease Return Repairs
We can remove exterior and interior blemishes to eliminate hefty lease return fees (recommended if you are not trading for the same make or using the same dealership).
Minor Body Work
For damages that are less than your deductible, like light fender bender, we offer the same quality body work for a cash price.
Headlight Restoration
We can brighten headlights by removing the yellow hazy film that develops over time. This film reduces the effectiveness of headlights and makes a vehicle look dull and unwashed.
