George is the best! Not only is he responsive, but George will go the extra mile to make sure your car is fixed correctly. He kept me informed on the progress by sending updates which included pics and details. George also contacted the insurance company when he found more damage that was not visible. I really appreciate his attention to detail to make necessary repairs: Very pleased with the end result of the first of four cars to be repaired. Will definitely recommend using Automotive Concepts to anyone needed autobody and/or paint repair. You know this business does excellent work when Velocity and their high end customers require repair work! He repairs all types vehicles. Support small local business so we can keep specialized "artists" like George in Hawaii! read more

George is Awesome! Took my truck in for repair and what was estimated to take 2 days turned into 5 hours. He also was super affordable and went out of his way to touch up little knicks from rocks. Will see him again if ever needed! read more

I was making a sharp turn in my building's garage and heard that horrible sound of metal crunching. I needed a new passenger door, a runner panel and new paint. My brother-in-law recommended Auto Concepts and the service by George was caring, patience and professional. The car looked brand new and I would recommend them for any car repair needs. Mahalo George for my "new" car. read more

Automotive concepts is simply the best. George and his crew are professional, extremely thorough, caring and clearly know their business. We've taken both our cars in there over the years and every time he gets us an estimate very quickly and the repairs are completed in his quoted time frame (with picture updates). They treat your car as if it is their own. Comes back looking better than new. They are also very helpful with rental car/dealing with your or other insurance companies. Cant say enough about George and his team; HIGHLY recommended. read more

If I could, I would give George 10 Stars at automotive concepts. Wow! Wow! Wow! He once again did an amazing job fixing my car. He did it right away and even work through Mother's Day weekend.

I very very highly recommend George automotive concepts for your auto body needs. He even added freon to my air conditioner in my car headed very excellent price and the overall price for everything was so good that I decided to tip him as well because he well deserves it. read more

George Dumlao at Automotive Concepts gave me an itemized estimate which told me exactly what I was paying for. He is very personable and made it easy for me to get the body work done on my car. He had it done in only a couple of days and my friends couldn't even tell where the dent originally was because he did such an excellent job on it. Thanks George for making it very stress-free for me. read more

Went to Automotive Concepts for an estimate and met George Dumlao. He is very honest and friendly. I needed some rust work, body kit installation, and painting done. He fully explained how he deals with rust step by step, which I enjoyed. He inspected the body kit to make sure it wasn't a cheap imitation. We set up a appointment and a approx. due date. It was finished on-time, as estimated, and it looked spectacular! He even had my car detailed! Thanks again George! Awesome job! read more

I have used Automotive Concepts a number of times and have had nothing but impeccable work and friendly smiles. They would text me updates and pictures of the progress of my car and the end product is always better than expected. They worked with my insurance company to repair vandalism and it was an extremely painless process. I have referred many people to them and will continue to do so. Now I'm off to go and get an estimate from George to have some work done and I'm sure as always he will give an accurate estimate the won't be over priced. read more

This shop is awesome! Had a damaged bumper from hitting a pillar in a parking garage, so had to replace the bumper and paint it. This shop came recommended by a friend and man am I lucky to have them do the work. This shop is fast, quality of work is superior, they're fast, and very professional. The color matches perfectly, you can't even tell car had a bumper changed. You can tell they take pride in their work. Definitely recommend them and I plan to use them in the future. read more

Brought my car into Automotive Concepts about a month ago To get a quote, I was really skeptical, i wanted to do the job myself being a backyard mechanic, and love working on cars. I figured it would save me some money, but i'd never done body work before and I bought my car for the body, so I Knew I wanted it professionally worked on. I have read many forums online about people doing work themselves, only to take it into a bodyshop because they tried to save money, and end up paying a professsional more money to fix the bad body work the person did themselves. I recommend taking it to a shop like Automotive Concepts. I searched many shops online but due to the location, and the cleanliness and professionallism exhibited at this shop I decided to give Automotive Concepts my business. I had some decent scratches on the passenger door as well as damage to my rocker. The window wouldnt go up. The car was in the shop a week. When called by the gentleman who runs the shop (George) He said the car was ready for pick up. I wanted to pick it up, but due he the nature of my job, I was unable to pick up for 3 more days. George informed me that it would be fine, he would just keep i on property until I came to get it, no charge! Thats awesome. When i got there my car was washed, and the job looked great. Literally like it never happened. My window rolls up fine. And the job looks clean. Have washed car many times since the job was done, and have had no problems with fading, chipping or peeling. Would definetely recommend checking this place out for minor or major repair. I think they do detailing too. read more

Picked up the vehicle and guess what..rear light reflector missing and drove off the driveway with the front bumper not mounted with the original hardware and it fell right off. George had the audacity to raise his voice and brought up unnecessary comments that had nothing to do with the paint. Like I said earlier, most unprofessional business I've ever dealt with. Left the shop immediately and dropped off the vehicle to a business more worthy of our time and money! read more

George Dumlao did an amazing job with my car! A few days ago, I was so bummed to find a long, deep scratch on my fender and went to the auto body of my car dealership to see if they could help me. They tried to buff it out but said they couldn't because the scratch was too deep (and sadly they actually buffed it too hard that it left a gray shadow above the scratch!) Also, they said it would require me to leave my car for work overnight and that possibly it would take up to 2-3 days to have the scratch fixed, and worst of all, they quoted me a price that was way beyond what I could afford. I was feeling so down and didnt know what to do, in fact some of my family and friends told me it wasn't worth it and that I should just leave the scratch but with my car still being fairly new, I really wanted to have the scratch removed. I mentioned it to Char and she told me about George at Automotive Concepts and said ge was highly recommended to her in the past. So we took a few pictures of the scratch and sent them to George and within minutes, he assessed what needed to be done and gave me a price quote that would save me over $200!! We set an appt for the following week and I just want to say I am beyond satisfied with the amazing work they've done. They even noticed a lose door guard and took the time to fix it for me. As if all that goodness wasn't enough, they worked on my car in such a timely manner that I was able to pick it up at the end of the day (everything done in just 1 day!)...amazing!! I am so grateful for the incredible work they've done on my car (and all the added bonuses) at such a great price that I could afford and really, all done with kindness! Thank you to George Dumlao and his crew at Automotive Concepts... best service!! If you need any bodywork/paint done for your car, give them a call, they are truly worth it!
