Advanced just completed a front fender and door repair on my 2022 Silverado. This truck has a very difficult pearl blue color to match, the workmanship and color match are perfection. They pay attention to details, to the point an experienced painter is impressed. I have been painting cars for 40 years, this is the only shop in the area i trust with my personal cars. read more

I had fender bender a week ago, the first in decades and a friend suggested Advanced Auto on Bellmore Ave. I couldn't be happier with the quality of service, expert repairs and detailing! The car has never looked so good! Also, the help of Angelina was invaluable! She contacted the insurance company, provided all info and walked me through every step of the process. I had arrived worried and uncomfortable, but left confident I (and the car) was in good hands. Thank you Bobby, Angie and the crew for a job very well done! read more

At first I was really happy with the work. My car was rear ended. The sensors for the camera were damaged as well. The car came back great but about 6 months later there was an error message that my rear sensors weren't working. I took the car to the dealership and they said that whoever had done the work had used double sided tape to hold the sensors in place and as such they were literally falling off. Further, the mounts that were used to harness the bumper were also breaking. I went back to the shop twice and I was told both times to come back. I ended up having the dealership repair it where they bought all new parts. Could I have pushed and asked them to take a look, sure but as a past customer whose insurance paid them a favorable amount for the work and it was only 6 months ago, I don't feel that should have to beg. At least I know it will be fixed correctly and protected should something fail by the manufacturer. Disappointing to say the least. read more

I wish I could give 5 more stars. I had an accident recently, and after the police finished with their reports I managed to get my car to Advanced Auto Body. When I came in Bobby could see I wasn't doing well, so he told me to sit down, got me a bottle of water, and he went to work. I got my papers out, called Geico and at some point he spoke to Geico , arranged appointment for car inspection, arranged a car rental, and I was on my way. Turns out car was a total due bent frame (I think Bobby was more upset that me when he had to tell me.) these days it's rare to find someone as caring and willing to go that extra mile. I can't recommend Bobby and Advanced Auto Body too highly......they really are THE BEST !!!! read more

This bodyshop is excellent in terms of service and quality. I had an emergency today, on a Saturday, when my daughter went up a curb and damaged the plastic shield under one of our cars, a car that she need to get to work on Monday. Bobby and one of his skilled repair guys did a quality repair right then and there so my kid could get to work! The skill, thought and trust is greatly appreciated. In 40 + years of driving I have been to a number of auto body shops. None were as high quality as Advanced Auto. read more

Once again Bobby and his crew did an amazing job. Not only did they make my car look better than new Bobby treats you like a family member. My car was a theft recovery and he took care of everything including all the custom pieces that I had on my car. I highly recommend Advanced read more

When it comes to choosing an auto body shop for repairs, Bobby Grau of Advanced Auto Body in Bellmore is simply "our one and only"! In my first 47 years of driving, I never had a need for any auto body shop. However, in the past 12 months, my family of five drivers has needed an auto body shop three times. Fortunately, we found Bobby the first time through the combination of a recommendation and my visiting several auto body shops. For each of the first two incidents - which were very low speed incidents handled outside of our insurance - we were wowed by the quality of the repairs done by Bobby and his staff, and pleased that the price was reasonable. The third incident resulted in our car being declared "totaled". Even though ultimately there was no repair work to be performed, we are so glad that we had it towed to Bobby. Bobby freely shared his knowledge, experience, and advice as to how we should proceed with respect to the claims process. This resulted in our being able to obtain a settlement that was sufficient in amount to cover the actual replacement cost for a vehicle with the same year, make, model, mileage, and pre-accident condition of our totaled vehicle. Throughout all our dealings, we have also observed Bobby's complete honesty - rejecting opportunities to perform unnecessary or inappropriate work, even though it might benefit him financially in the short-term. While we hope for no more accidents, if the need does arise again, Bobby has us as customers for life! read more

I had my windshield replaced on my 2014 Mazda6 here. Had to come back three times to fix water leaking into my car when it rained. Bobby (who I've worked with before) told me that he would even order a new window trim and glass, since re-inserting the glass should have solved it. Lo and behold, he lied- I came back, he told me he replaced the glass and trim. Neither was replaced! The window trim is bent out of shape and the glass still had Aquapel (rainX alternative) on it like the original. Definitely not recommended. read more

Absolute gem Bobby is a great guy who went out of his way to help me. Great work Great customer service all around amazing ! read more

This place is the best! Bobby handled everything, I had a small dent repaired, got a rental vehicle, and picked up my perfect car 3 days later. My boyfriend had some work done with Bobby a few months later and had the exact same experience. Wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. read more

Bobby was helpful and got my car back to me in a reasonable period of time. He worked with the insurance and made the whole process simple. He took the stress out of a stressful situation. read more

Needed a rear window replace, work was done fast and priced right, couldn't ask for more !

Can't say enough good things and this shop, the owner Bobby is incredibly friendly and reasonable. I can go on and on about the numerous times he has helped me out with body work. For small issues he has sent out a mechanic to fix it quickly and doesn't even ask for anything in return, a simple hand shake and a warm hearted thank you will suffice. read more

Bobby was terrific to work with. I went to Advanced Auto Body on the recommendation of my mom who swears by the quality of work that was put into her cars. Well, mom's are always right! Bobby was friendly and honest and most importantly my damaged lease looks as good as new. Bobby handled all of the paperwork and worked with the insurance company directly. I didn't have to do a thing! Highly recommend! read more

Best run auto body place I've ever been to. Bobby is a class act. Been here twice already over the past 7 years. Great work.

Received an amazing service from this place. Highly recommend. My car came out of the shop looking brand new!

We came in with a 2004 Acura that needed 2K worth of repair. The car was worth 5-6K. Bobby was very honest and gave us a band aid fix for $75. He was the nicest guy to deal with and an example to the auto industry that typically rips off customers read more

Advanced Auto, MORE then just your dime a dozen body repair shop on Long Island!!! Bobby Grau is a fantastic person and I can't say enough good things about him and his team at Advanced Auto. Loosing access to your vehicle can be stressful especially if you've been in an accident for the first time. Bobby knows the rights of the insured and works EXTREMELY well with the insurance companies. My insurance carrier covers a rental car. Bobby had the rental at his shop waiting for my wife and infant daughter. I've had 3 of my vehicles into his shop. Unfortunately one was a total loss but Bobby helped us feel at ease through the entire process. My convertible top was vandalized and his team did an EXCELLENT job fitting a new replacement clothe top. It looks just like it came from the dealer! My SUV was damaged in the 2011 hail storm and his team fixed the entire vehicle. The 2004 SUV looks like the day it rolled off the show room floor. My father brought 2 of his vehicles to Advanced Auto. He has to drive 15 miles but won't take his vehicles anywhere else. My coworker brought in her vehicle to Advanced Auto twice. The second time she drove from New Jersey for bumper repairs! My family knows if they're in an accident to call the Police, a family member, then Bobby Grau to be towed to Advanced Auto! There IS no better place to take your vehicle for cosmetic repair. Thank you Bobby for always making me and my family comfortable during what should be a stressful time. read more

Bobby and his crew are terrific to work with and do beautiful work! He handled all the necessary claim paperwork and made the whole process as easy as something like this can be. read more

My truck was unfortunately broken into on the driver side window, while I was at the gym. As you can imagine, I was upset to see my 3 month old car driver side window shattered. It was a terrible experience to go through to say the least. After feeling all the stress of working with the police, and my insurance company, it all seemed to go away after dropping off my car at Advance Auto Body. Bobby worked closely with my adjuster, set me up with his people at Enterprise, and kept me in the loop as my car was being repaired. After a quick week, I drove away in what felt like a brand new truck. I would swear by Advanced Auto Body to my family and friends. read more

I'm the person that's always worked on my own cars, being a former mechanic. Didn't have the time or tools to work on my van. Very impressed with their diagnosis and repair, they found the problem which was difficult to find, very quickly. Work was performed and completed on time for the quoted price. I highly recommend these guys. read more
