I contacted the ARS team to fix some side panel damage to my minivan. Not only did they make it look brand new, they also corrected a shoddy job done by a previous shop on my front and rear bumpers. I can't thank Adam and his team enough. It felt like I was picking up the van the first time I got it after the detailing team cleaned the interior. They do great work, and if I ever need more done, I know the first call I'm going to make. read more

If you need body work or detailing this is the spot to go . I was referred by my mechanic whom my family and I love and trust . Adam was supper helpful & beyond honest .

I don't look forward on needing bodywork for our family cars but accidents happen obviously , when they do this will be the our spot going forward. Thank you so much for your honesty & removing my scratch. read more

ARS Collision - ARS - Body Shops Near Me - Hawthorne, California

This place is a complete shit show! READ THAT AGAIN!!!!!! Avoid by all means, unless you like being lied to, and scammed! If you like being charged for work that wasn't done, or having your insurance milked for things that weren't on your claim, or dealing with a bad attitude, you are in the right place, and Adam is your guy! Look no further! If you enjoy the lack of communication, and things being done without your consent, and you being charged for it, again, look no further! If you don't mind turning in your vehicle for an extended period of time, like several months, for a simple fix that would usually take a week, again look no further, Adam is your guy! If you like bullshit and have an appreciation for sub standard work, this is the place. This was a very pleasant shop, with the two previous owners, but now with the current owner, it's nothing more than a bad experience! Beware! You've been warned! Good Luck, you're going to need it! Don't be fooled by all of the fake reviews, from my experience, they have to be manipulated! read more

ARS Collision - Just Beware' - Body Shops Near Me - Hawthorne, California

Adam, the owner, was great! Beyond fair and kind to my newly adulting son. He got the work done promptly and responded to my son and I quickly. If my son ever hits a pole while parallel parking again (please no) or we need any body work, ARS Collision will be our go to. Highly recommend if you want honest evaluation and/or quote. read more

I don't know about previous owner (Roy). From the reviews, he sounds very good. I do know about the new owner, Adam. He was extremely nice and did his best to provide both my wife and myself with great service. Both of our cars (luxury and economy) had partial paint jobs of worn fenders, hoods etc. Color matching was imperative and they did a great job including feathering into existing paint. They repaired and painted a cracked bumper to look new again. And the price for both was very reasonable. To top it off he included a full detail at EasyAutoDetailing.com, a related business. He asked me to bring in our first car when we picked up second car. He washed the first car again and then touched up all small scratches on parts of the car that we did not even have him paint! read more

I was referred to Adam by Bob of Bob's Auto Repair. Bob has worked on a couple of my cars over the years, and began servicing my 65 Mustang. While driving the Mustang, I was in a major accident on the 405. The gears locked up, and I spun out and slammed into a concrete divider on the freeway. The car experienced extensive damage, and was all but totaled. My first call, of course, was to Bob to get him to arrange a tow for me to his shop. While at his shop, I asked him if he knew anyone he'd recommend to repair the body damage, etc., thinking the car might not be salvageable. Without hesitation, Bob recommended Adam, who drove right over to look at the car. I told him I didn't know if it could be saved, and Adam assured me it could. Although the process started out a little rocky and took longer than both Adam and I had expected, primarily due to the back and forth with my insurance company, the end result was better than I could've ever expected. I'll admit I have OCD, and am super critical with details, especially when one of my cars is being repaired. If you're looking for a shop that does great work with an excellent eye for detail, I highly recommend Adam and ARS Collision. I want to thank Adam for going the extra mile and battling the insurance company on my behalf to obtain the most coverage possible. read more

ARS Collision - The car looks and drives a 100% better than it did before the accident. - Body Shops Near Me - Hawthorne, California

Adam was not clear with me at all.He would say something over the phone. I would text back in response to what he asked me to do and I ended up in my opinion getting scammed out of money and back to where i started. That's just my opinion/experience. I'm not saying that he is a scam artist. I'm just saying that I had a bad experience beyond bad and lost money out of my pocket because of his either bad communication or his amnesia or this is something he does all the time. I urge you if you are considering using Adam and this company to record every conversation that you have with him and also be careful with texting because I noticed he'll say something in a conversation and then completely change what you were told! Also be careful texting with him because he will call you say one thing and then you will text him and he will later use your text against you- that happened to me! Ugh!! I cannot comment on the work because no work was done on the car but just having the pleasure of talking to him and meeting him and bringing the car over there at his request cost me $600 for him to release car!! When someone says I got you, I'll take care of you. Be on guard. Record your conversations!!! read more

I worked directly with the owner, Adam, on a repair for our Tesla. He went above and beyond in his customer service and the car came back in perfectly new looking condition. He even made the effort to get it detailed. He made it a point to provide the best value for the service as well. I would highly recommend ARS Collision to anyone in need of auto body restoration, repair or customization. read more

I was referred to Adam from my trusted mechanic Bob's Auto Repair in Hawthorne. I backed my truck into a wall and dented the body and cracked a pinch weld. Adam took at look and immediately reassured me he can get it done. He gave me a quote immediately and was not trying to upsell me at all. Nothing says more than than the actual work done and I was definitely satisfied with the work. The truck looks like nothing ever happened to it! read more

Adam and the team did an amazing job. Handled the insurance for us, patience of a saint. It was the highest quality repair- really happy with the work read more

I was referred by Bob at Bob's auto repair and Adam did not disappoint! As the owner of ARS, he goes above and beyond for his clients. After I'd been in a collision, he dealt with my insurance and was able to get my car looking brand new. The cherry on top is picking up your car after it's been detailed! Thank you Adam for taking such good care of mine and my husbands cars this year. You're the best! read more

I took my car to get fixed to this body shop and I'm really happy with the product, my car looks amazing, besides that they did a full detail, Adam is a nice guy, and his workers are awesome, they even took care of some things around my car without asking for it, I really recommend this place to take your car and get fixed, prices are very reasonable, but of course you have to pay for what you want, they do the best quality work, they really know what they're doing read more

Adam touched up and blended my 20 year car. It looks great! It looks like a new car. read more

First and foremost Roy NO LONGER OWNS OR WORKS AT THIS SHOP! Adam is the new owner and does not do ANYTHING like Roy! I have been a customer of Roys for over 15 years impeccable work and great customer service. Adam does not have the same communication nor does he have integrity to keep his word with customers. My car was in the shop for two months and though parts were delayed I could have had my car back sooner. I would save my time, frustration and money and go somewhere else! HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE... read more

Helped me out in a serious pinch! Entire staff were super helpful and kind. Adam is understanding and fair while doing a good job. Will pass on to others in the future! read more

Adam appears to be an honest businessman. He did not fix my car, but connected me with someone else who could further assist in a different matter. I was able to get my business handled quickly without any delays. Adam kept his word in the business transaction. I would definitely recommend to other people, regarding great service. read more

Don't bring your car here for any type of auto body work unless you don't mind being lied to or just ignored when trying to follow up. I was involved in a minor accident last December and I'm my car is still not done. The work is sloppy at best. They broke a clip on my driver side turn signal and the light was loose and almost fell of while driving home. Then they tried to charge me a 20% restocking fee for a part they ordered that never shipped. When I asked for the contact information for the supplier to verify if the part shipped and that there was a restocking fee they refused to comply with my request probably because the owner Adam was lying. They don't check to make sure everything is working properly before picking up your car. Now I'm taking my car to my mechanic to finish the work. The owner has zero communication skills and is often rude. I had to go to the shop several times just for an update. The previous owner Roy was great. I referred him a lot of business. The new owner Adam is not. I would not refer anyone to him. read more

As a woman it's always tricky to get an honest advice about a body shop repair needed on your car! :) I was referred to ARS collision by Juan in Nur Benz ( aka Dr Benz, also a man you can trust about fixing your car) . Not only Adam in ARS collision gave me a great advice about fixing the rays in the bumper but he is also very knowledgeable about how to deal with your car insurance in your best interest. Great advice & super professional! read more

This was the best experience I've ever had at an auto shop. ARS provided excellent service - they are knowledgeable and trustworthy. The owner, Adam, truly cares about getting you the best deal and went above and beyond just fixing the car. My car looks brand new. I would highly recommend ARS Collision to anyone looking for auto body repair. read more

I have taken my cars here, starting with RP Enterprises, for about 10 years. They are terrific at doing repair work, including that covered by my insurance, to get a car into top shape - after an accident, and for selling or lease return. They can figure out how to get something unusual done, and take the time to explain how. The staff are knowledgable, courteous and helpful, from leadership (Adam and Roy) to the men who are performing the work needed. Each time, my car looked brand new. read more

Roy and his crew are absolute miracle workers when it comes to car restoration. My 1995 Camaro developed corrosion on the rear quarter panel and a fellow worker referred me to RP Enterprises. Not only did Roy replace the damaged area, he touched up other parts of my car to make them look "brand new". Immediately after meeting Roy, he described in-depth how he would remove the car's corrosion, replace it with fresh metal and then mold it back look seamless with the rest of my car. Roy messaged me and included pictures as progress was being made from tear down, repair, and painting of my beloved car. My confidence in his work and customer service grew as he kept me informed through every step of my car's restoration. I cannot recommend him enough for all the excellent work he performed on my car. read more

ATTENTION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have a 2008 Prius and I only have liability. I got into a wreck that I was found liable for and was stuck with a bent front frame with many issues. every body shop and person I talked to said its not worth saving and nothing can be done. I did not know what to do and was very distraught. I was referred by a good friend to Roy, at RP Enterprises. I went to talk with Roy and he eased my worries. He told me not to worry anymore and that he would take care of everything. I was so relieved and happy. He took my car right away to assess the damages. I was given a thorough and in depth estimate. He told me it would be done within 2 weeks. He worked with my budget and said he will bring my car back to life. Throughout the next two weeks, Roy kept me up to date. He sent me pics of everything that was going on and his progress. I was so pleased with how professional and caring RP Enterprises had been. As I was told 2 weeks later my car was ready. When I drove past to park, I glanced at a new Prius and thought that could never be my car. When I walked up and closer, I saw my license plate. I could not Believe my eyes. My car was better than when I first bought it. It was shiny and new with not a mark on it. Everything had been perfectly replaced and fixed better than I could have ever imagined. Roy came out and shook my hand and I could not have thanked him enough. He is a body mechanic King. I would highly recommend RP Enterprises. You will not find a more accommodating, professional and skilled body mechanic. They went above and beyond my expectations. read more

Adam the owner is very rude and unprofessional. He does not complete the jobs he is paid for and he tries to bully people into phone conversations over items he did not return. DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE HERE, YOU WIL BE DISAPPOINTED, OVER CHARGED AND DISRESPECTED. He is a horrible person who should not have a business ,or should have someone with a better business sense and better manners to run the business and interact with his customers! read more

Roy is awesome! When I got in an accident a few years back, a friend referred me to RP Enterprises, and the owner, Roy to get body work and paint done, and thank God he did! My Infiniti G35 was like new after he worked on it. He repaired the damage perfectly, blended the paint well and didn't cut corners. I used his services again this past month, after I had a hit-and-run accident on my Infiniti SUV. The other driver hit me at 70 mph on the freeway and left a huge dent on my right rear corner, damaging the body, the wheel and the tire. My insurance was only going to cover used parts in the body work. Roy went above and beyond, sourcing his vendors for new parts at lower costs, to try to keep within the amount that the insurance company was willing to pay on the job. He was able to get me a brand new bumper. He also checked the other tires that weren't involved in the collision and I replaced the ones through one of his vendors that were really worn. He got me a great price on quality tires. He not only cares about the quality of his work, but he cares about his customers' safety and happiness with the end product. It's as if he treats every car he works on as his own. I have and will continue to recommend him to anyone who is looking for paint and body work. (He also restores classic cars, and is extremely talented at custom paint jobs.) I was lucky to be introduced to Roy, a business owner with integrity, knowledge and the greatest attention to detail that I've seen in the car industry. read more

Roy is a really nice guy. We've had a few cars come in to get work done here (one was in an accident, one needed some minor work done from some douche conoosh that clipped the side, and the third needed some parts installed and new paint job). Initially we were pretty happy with the outcome. It has only been a few years now (2015-2020) and we are seeing the condition/quality of the work that was done. Mind you we are very proud of and take very good care of our cars. The custom paint work that was done is chipping/peeling away like an expensive and longer lasting version of plastic dip. Some panels that were affected in the crashed car is showing cracking in the paintwork. Also, the roof of one vehicle is completely cracking (it looks like a cracked desert floor, see photo). Unacceptable for only a 5 year old paint job. The amount of money we put into these vehicles wasn't cheap. While being a nice person, the quality of the work is questionable. After only a few years time the paint should not fade/chip/crack as it has, especially with the upkeep that we maintain on these vehicles. I wouldn't recommend. read more

I was recently involved in an accident that damaged my rear bumper and lift gate. I came to Roy of RP Enterprises and was sooooo pleased with my experience. He measured everything to make sure my frame wasn't too damaged. Roy was also concerned about the aesthetics and took care of buffing out some scratches for me on the house. My car was ready in a week and it looks better than new! I am so impressed with the quality of his work, you cannot even tell that I was rear ended. Roy is so friendly and professional. I had a wonderful experience here and would recommend RP Enterprises for all your needs!!! read more

Unbelievable service at this shop!! I have a 2014 Prius C that had quite a large dent in it. In a VERY short time, Roy's team did an amazing job! The quality of the work was outstanding! I couldn't be happier with the repairs. There is no sign that the car was ever damaged! The price was more than fair and the work, as I said, was PERFECT! On top of the high quality work, Roy and his team were friendly and professional. They answered all my questions, returned calls quickly, and truly made my entire experience easy and painless. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Don't bother going anywhere else. THIS IS THE PLACE! read more

I've had many cars in 28 yrs and had many bad experiences with mechanics and body shops. Thank God for Roy he gained my trust back again without stressing or worrying about my cars. He's so honest helpful and down to earth. I bring all my cars here for collision, repairs and maintenance. I've been using his shop for over 10yrs. Great experience and completes such a professional job from my Honda's to my BMW's. I'm so thankful for his help and knowledge read more

This small shop exceeded all expectations repairing my car. I brought in my 1996 Nissan 300zx to get the small dents and scratches removed and when I came to pick it up it looked like it did off the show room floor when it was brand new! People are staring at it now and I am getting tons of non-solicited compliments and requests to buy it. Combine that with how easy Roy is to work with and I have to say this IS the place to bring in your car for repairs-no question about it! Thank you RP Enterprises! read more

Look no further RP Enterprises is the best autobody shop on LA. Roy is honest, reasonable and professional. It's rare to have quality work done with such a high level of customer service. Roy exemplified that when he picked me up on a Friday night to get my car. No charge, just a smile. I will use Roy for all my future vehicle needs. read more

A friend of mine recommended Roy to me a few years ago. I've always kept his contact info. tucked away for future reference. Good thing that I did because this past holiday, some jerk hit my car either at a valet parking location, or a shopping center. Whoever hit my car never left a contact number- karma is a b$&ch! When I took my Range Rover to Roy, immediately I knew I was going to be in good hands. Roy is very knowledgable in his industry and knows how to explain in a detail manner for those of us that are not body shop talk savvy. He was very hands on in dealing between the insurance co. and kept me informed in a timely manner. Unfortunately, I couldn't say the same for my horrible insurance co., Wawanesa. Roy went the extra mile for me. Thank you for the awesome work and service! I would definitely recommend his services ! read more

Roy is the kinda guy you'd want as a good friend ... caring, understanding and is always thinking of and exploring new ideas - and he runs his business that way. I had an issue with my bumpers and he took care of it with my complete satisfaction! My car is a 2002 RX 300 and he made it look like showroom finish. Good prices, too! This is your go-to guy for auto body work - don't bother going anywhere else! read more

Roy was incredibly professional and friendly. I had my Lexus ES 350 repaired at his shop and he invested much time and attention to detail to ensure my car was fixed exactly as how it should be. He spent the extra time communicating with the insurance company to make sure that the appropriate parts were used. He even fixed scratches to the front bumper that were not part of the damage. The car was returned looking better than before the accident. I highly recommend his service and would definitely refer my family and friends. read more

Roy is AWESOME! I initially had a bumper that was falling off. He met me on a Saturday morning to do a quick "band-aid" job to last me for a few days and I returned on the following Monday to drop off the car. He fixed my car in no time and at REASONABLE price. He is go-to guy for any auto body work! read more
