  • Caution: Men at Work

    • Certified technician- auto repair

    • Certified technician-refinisher

    Two major stages of automotive repair: body and refinishing technicians.

  • Headlight Restoration-before and after

    • Aged and Foggy

    • Clean and Clear

    The images above consist of the same headlight.  The process of cleaning old lights is now an open option for any car owner as well as insurance companies.  Its cost effective for anyone who compares the price of a new light versus salvaging and cleaning the existing one.

  • Genesis-electronic measuring system

    • Anchors for Rack

    • Computer and Pulling Attachments

    The computer has a program, updated monthly, that knows vehicle specs from the manufacturer.  The measuring system works with lasers that reflect off of targets and back to the hubs that measures your vehicle as is.  All of the attachments above are necessary for anchoring your vehicle to the rack and required for pulling any angle on your vehicle thats needed.  From there, the computer tells the technician what dimensions are off and the repair begins!

  • Frame Rack-damage analysis and rough pull station 

    • Vehicle with rear end damage

    • Rough pull to begin repair process

    Everyone thinks of the worst when they hear the word "FRAME" and/or "UNIBODY" used with their vehicle.  No need to worry!  A high percentage of repairs now require some form of a rough pull from the frame rack to ensure the proper measurements, lines and gaps to ensure the right repair the first time for your vehicle.

  • Unibody-repair and replacement

    • Removal of Damaged Panels

    • Fitting of New Panels

    After rough pull and measuring, the process of removing and replacing the damaged panels begins.  When removing panels, the technician needs to know which panel overlaps the other and how to take just the bad panel out without compromising the undamaged ones.  Depending on the brand of vehicle, this could be lengthy and time consuming.  When removal is completed, all surfaces must be prepped for the new panel.  The technician begins fitting the new panel to the opening; making what adjustments need to be made, front and back, for good gaps and body lines.

  • Repair Photos-painting

    • Wrapped and Ready

    • Wrapped and Ready

    The painting stage: when color matching and tinting is one of the most important moments in your vehicles repair.  If the color is off then there's a good chance you as the owner will not be satisfied.  We do our best to ensure the only thing that is mentioned is that it looks great!
