    This small, no-frills body shop was actually recommended by the woman who rear-ended me in her brand new Tesla Model Y. Would've never even found this place without her advice, as it's almost too easy to miss this place while cruising along Balboa. In fact, her vehicle was present at the shop when I finally showed up. There's nothing even remotely fancy at all about this shop. Rather, the owner (Ruben) and his guys took fantastic care of my vehicle. Kept me up-to-date with regards to when my OEM replacement bumper would arrive, and also updated me about the progress of the installation work. Also responded quickly to my texts. Very happy with the final results... application of the final paint job, as well as the fit and finish of the bumper installation made it look as if it had never been hit, and there's no weird noises being emitted from the rear bumper area that would suggest a subpar install job. Since it's a fairly simple car (2017 Corolla iM hatchback), the work only took a couple of days. The owner also provided me courtesy transportation to Enterprise. I even requested for the aftermarket rear backup sensor kit (installed by the previous owner and still functioning normally after the accident) to not be transferred to the new bumper, as I've found the system to be overly sensitive. Ruben and his team honored my request and set aside the kit so I can sell it to an interested party. I could keep writing, but I'll let the before-and-after pictures do the rest of the talking for me. Thank you very much Ruben!

    I have worked with Reuben on three repairs over the last few years and he has consistently gone above and beyond to take care of everything from the initial estimates, the communication with insurance and car rental agencies to final delivery and his work is impeccable! We recently had a tree fall on top of our 2018 Suburban and he took care of our baby color matching a unique color perfectly and taking care of a sticky situation out of his own pocket for the rental car extension that insurance backed out on. I would recommend Reuben and his team to everyone!

    This mechanic did magic I got my car back looking like it did before the accident. When I saw it I almost teared up because of what an amazing job Rubens crew did I was worried that my car was going to look horrible and wouldn't even be close to looking like the day I pulled out of the car lot after purchasing it. Yes it's obviously not going to be a 100% but I would say it's at least a 99.99% and you can't get any better then that. Thank you to the guys at balboa Collision Center for making one of the worst things that has happened so much easier to handle keep up the good work

    I took my 2014 Range Rover because my husband scraped the passenger front bumper. Since I was getting that done I decided to add the vandalism that was done with a KEY on both doors and rims to the repair. I was a little nervous because that's a lot of new paint on my Rover and was afraid the color would be off. I wish I would have taken a picture of the damage prior to the repair. But, I am extremely happy with the work Ruben did on my car. It looks flawless. They sent the rims to get repainted and repaired all damaged areas. When my car was done they delivered it to my door. He really knows how to treat his customers VIP and the turn around is quick.

    Balboa Collision Center did an AMAZING job for a very good price! My car looks brand new again thanks to Ruben, Adrian and the staff. It only took a few days which is great! I will definitely recommend this place to family/friends.

    These guys are amazing. Ruben is fantastic and was very accommodating with all aspects of the repair. I got into an accident and after taking my car to Balboa Collision Center my car looks better than when I bought it. Reasonable price and amazing service!

    Armen and his team are the best!!! It's really hard to find a business that has 160+ all 5 stars…read morefrom everything from customer service to car repair services.. Other businesses I reached out to for an estimate told me I had to come into their shop and quoted be $400+ more. I reached out got a request insanely quick with a amazing price compared to others set up an appointment to drop off my car, and was all finished in the estimated time line... Armen handed all my requests (bumper repaint, paint my mirrors, and do my rims as they had tons of rim rashes on them). I got my car back and all I can say is wow wow wow... so thankful!!!! You can see the before and after work! If you need anything auto body work done Armen and his team is the place!!! Thank youuuuu

Armen give me an estimate until he saw it in person. We were happy with the estimate and went to take her car to the shop. The price was still the same and Armen explain the whole process to us. The cost was very reasonable and less than we thought it was going to cost. They accept cash and credit card with no fee. The work took about 3 days and they went above and beyond on the work. There was some internal damage that we couldn't see but Armen fixed them with no additional charge. They also washed the car and was in the process of applying the tire dressing when we arrived to pick up the car. It looked better than before and we are overjoy with the amazing work they did. I would highly recommend this shop for anyone who need body work on their car. Customer service is top notch and their craftsman is amazing. The warranty is also lifetime so that's always good.

I…read morestopped by one afternoon to get an estimate on re-painting one door of my car that had been previously worked on by a mobile dent removal/paint guy, and the roof because the clear coat was wearing out due to sun damage. It wasn't looking good and I plan to keep the car for another five years or so, so I figured I should look into this. Marcos took a look at the areas that needed work, then brought me into his office. He typed up some information in the computer and got me a quote within 10 or 15 minutes, no problem. The cost was about what I expected and I didn't even bother getting a second opinion. Based on the number of great reviews on Moises, I figured I had found the right place. I scheduled a time to drop the car off on a Monday morning hoping I would only have to rent a car until Friday. They literally got to work right away, sending me photos of the car being worked on by noon. It turned out that the mobile dent guy had done some pretty shoddy work underneath his paint job, and that I would need a new door skin as well if I wanted the car to really look its best. Marcos was honest and said I didn't have to go this route, and could keep it the way it was, but it wouldn't look as good. It would be ok, and better than it currently looked, but if I wanted it pristine, I should consider the new door skin. I figured I'm going this far, so we might as well do it right. The car was ready by Friday afternoon as promised, even though they had to order a new door skin which was not in the plan. When I picked the car up Friday, it looked perfect. In fact, the whole car looked fantastic. The paint was blended perfectly. I feel so much better about this car now. One added bonus to all of this is that Marcos noticed my magnet on the back of the car that says "I [heart] my dachshund," and Marcos mentioned he also has two dachshunds. I always know I can trust a dachshund lover. The only problem is that Marcos is an LAFC fan, and as I am a huge LA Galaxy fan, it was difficult to accept this!

    Service/Professionalism: five stars Quality of Work: five…read morestars Ambiance: five stars Cost: five stars Finding a trustworthy and quality body shop is like finding a needle in a haystack. In Los Angeles, the driving capital of the world, there isn't a shortage of mechanics and body shops but not all are created equally. JoJo's Auto Body is top notch! My dad has been a client of Manar and JoJo's Auto Body for various projects and of course recommended him highly. My dad is of a certain generation where nothing less than perfection is acceptable, so I knew he'd done his due diligence. JoJo's had done some significant work on two of my parents' cars. Of course, then, I contact Manar. Unfortunately, parked right in front of our home, my driver's side view mirror was clipped by a passing car that had drifted. I happened to be inside the car and the car drifted right, hit the mirror and sped off. Immediately after, I contacted Manar. We scheduled an intake. He was punctual, professional, and transparent about options and cost. He provided me with the necessary information and I felt absolutely no pressure to make a decision immediately. He had one of his technicians tape up the remnants of the rear view mirror to cover it while we decided. A few weeks passed and we decided to have the entire mirror replaced. We asked Manar to let us know when the mirror would arrive and we could just come in and have it taken care of quickly. He contacted me on a Monday to say the mirror replacement was at the shop. We scheduled a time for me to take the car on Wednesday and within 35 minutes of arriving the work was done. In addition to his professionalism, quality of work, and honesty, Jojo's is a well managed and kept body shop. I mean no one really wants to sit around a body shop but if ever you need to, JoJo's is immaculate. There is plenty of parking, clear signage, and a welcome reception and office manager. Each visit I was asked if I needed anything to drink, including water or coffee. There is clear management signage about their policies and pricing No one ever wants to deal with body work but if you have to, please do yourself a favor and go to JoJo's Auto Body! It has quickly become our family go-to!

The damage was deep, specifically along the car's body lines. Honestly, looking at the damage, I thought I wouldn't be able to live with the car in that condition and that I'd be forced to trade it in and take a huge financial hit. Then I met Dani (the "Michelangelo" of auto body). From the second I met him, he was incredibly calm and reassuring. He told me everything would be okay and that he'd take care of it. I left my car with him, though I was still worried it would never look the same. The Result: When I came to pick up the car, I actually stood there for a few moments trying to figure out which side the gate had even hit! The damage was 100% gone. Not a single trace, ripple, or dent was left. The man is a true artist; he made the damage completely disappear. Beyond his incredible skill, Dani is a man of integrity. I am so grateful for his: * Honesty: He was straightforward and professional from start to finish. * Customer Service: He kept me at ease throughout the whole process. * Fair Pricing: For this level of craftsmanship, the price was more than fair. If you care about your vehicle and want it restored to perfection, Dani is the master you're looking for. Thank you again, Michelangelo!
