    What stuck with me the most at Cal Auto Body was how they just restored the bumper cover on my car to flawless show room finish in literally just one day! I am standing here right now and looking at it and thinking ...just perfect To use Cal was one of the best decisions I made. Love this place and people behind our business. Lucas

    Replaced back bumper and light

    My car got hit by a delivery truck and the whole back came off, after shopping around with a bunch of different auto repair shops I decided to choose Cal Auto Body, it turned out to be a great decision. Great communication and transparency, Really quick service, and great customer service.

    Before photo, damaged lights, caved bumper and scratches.

    If I could give a million star rating, I would. I was blown away by the customer service and the communication throughout the process. The staff was genuine and the owner Nana was the greatest, very personable and informative. They made me feel at ease the entire time even when I was frustrated about the damage to my car. I liked how the shop uses a text messaging system that would update me about the progress of my car. I do hope my car doesn't get jacked up again but if it does I know absolutely who I'm going to. No brainer, if you need a body shop this is the one to go to.

    First off, customer service is hands down AMAZING. Nana and Manny are both great. As my car was being worked on, they were very open with communication and calling with updates. Now to the fun stuff, their work is miraculous!!! They repaired my bumper, the part above the tire and the roof. The roof had the craziest dent (pictures attached) and they were able to make it look like a brand new car! I would recommend Cal Auto Body 10/10 to anybody!

He was a pleasure to work with from start to finish, and the quality and attention to detail were exceptional. I'll absolutely be reaching out to Antonio again to have my wife's 4Runner detailed in the near future.

His professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to quality were evident throughout the entire experience. We couldn't be happier with the results and will definitely be using his services again in the future. Highly recommended!

    This was my second time bringing my vehicle to Precision Auto Body & Detail. They have always done…read moregood work, or so I thought. Overall, the quality of their service and what they guarantee is spot on, but the attention to detail is lacking, heavily. For $400 I should be getting top-notch service. I should be the VIP of your establishment for the day! And I wasn't. Honestly, it's just simple things that shouldn't be overlooked that truly matter. What does a $400 "Complete Auto Detailing" get you? PROS: Exterior - Wash, Dry, Clay Bar, Wax, Protective Sealant, Wheel cleaning, and Tire shine. Your vehicle will glisten almost to perfection in a way that is showroom quality. Interior - As they claim, "a complete shampoo of the interior including the carpets, seats and floormats." And this is where it stops. CONS: Honor the time agreement! I booked my appointment on Tuesday 3/17 for Friday 3/20 and was told to drop my vehicle off between 8 and 8:30am. So I arrived at 815a on the day of my appointment, only to find that the front office door was locked, dark and unoccupied on the inside. It's not a good business practice to tell clients to arrive or be somewhere at a certain time and you, yourself, are not there. Exterior - No attention to detail for the small things. It's easy to spray on car washing foam and then pressure wash it off. But when you overlook the wheel wells that's an issue. The area that a spray wash just doesn't get it. Don't call yourself a "detailing shop" if you're not going to take the time to look at and address the minor details. My vehicle is White, and just like a Black car, it shows the dirt along with everything else. Had you been paying attention, you would have and should have caught this. Don't be afraid to get down on your hands and knees and put some "elbow grease" scrubbing effort into thoroughly cleaning ALL the parts that needed to be cleaned. If there's paint and clearcoat, it shouldn't be overlooked. Interior - While they also clean and wipe the door panels, dashboard or door jambs, this is where they fell short with the quality of service by my standards. My interior gas cap door was not cleaned/wiped. The engine hood was not opened nor was it wiped and cleaned either. (See pictures) It's not like I was asking for a steam cleaning of the engine bay, but nonetheless, it's a door with a crease and hinges. If your claim is "we wipe the door panels and door jambs," under the hood shouldn't have been overlooked. Again, details matter. Honestly, you didn't even try and make an attempt and it shows. The sad thing about this whole process compared to other detail shops is they don't "Deliver" your car to you. They don't walk you out to your vehicle and go over the details of everything that they did and inquire about your level of satisfaction. Because if it's not right they'll fix it. Unfortunately at Precision Auto Body & Detail you just walk in, pay, get your keys back, and then off you go. On to the next one. I've been to other auto detail shops that treat you like royalty from start to finish that are equally comparable in price. Maybe I'll spend the extra $200 somewhere else going forward, that I know for certain won't overlook the simple and minor details.

    It was not until recently that my partner and I needed to get our cars fixed. My partner…read moreunfortunately had to get his car fixed in 2 occasions in which he got hit by two different people and my dad always recommended to go here and work with Hermes. Hermes is the best person that we have dealt with when it comes to car repairs. In moments like these you need people that are super knowledgeable but most importantly empathetic. Hermes hits all of this points and his communication is top notch. He has helped us both 3 times so far and has left our cars brand new. I hope no one has to go to the body shop to get their cars repaired but if there is any place I recommend is Precision Body Shop!

After I called Lim, he was able to get me in within just four days. He inspected the issue, corrected it in only a few minutes, and the finish now looks absolutely flawless. Lim was professional, friendly, and genuinely the epitome of excellent customer service. He clearly takes tremendous pride in his work, and it shows in both the quality of the results and the way he treats his customers. It's rare to find someone who is both highly skilled and so committed to doing the job right. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your vehicle, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Lim.

    When I first reached out to Detailed by Precision, it was because I wanted to do something…read moremeaningful for myself for my birthday. I wasn't just looking for a basic clean: I wanted a deep, intentional transformation of my car. Inside and out. Its been YEARS. I had contacted a few different places, but Lim immediately stood out. The way he communicated, his responsiveness (thougutful, caring, considerate), was really meaningful. Even though his portfolio mostly features higher-end luxury vehicles, he didn't make me feel out of place. If anything, he understood what I was trying to do and genuinely wanted to meet me there! The booking process was easy. He walked me through what to expect, and we started sharing photos back and forth. He even pointed out things like chipped paint and small areas of rust that he could help improve--things I hadn't fully considered. And I didn't know could be accomplished (thought I had to go to other shops, etc). Before I even met him in person, I already felt a sense of trust. When I dropped off my car, he did a full walkthrough and pointed out details I didn't initially notice. His quote felt fair, and more importantly, it felt honest. Throughout the process, he kept me updated with progress photos, which I honestly loved! I felt like I was part of the process: getting little previews of something I was really excited about. By the time pickup day came around, I already knew it was going to be special. But seeing it in person was something else. He walked me through everything they did--inside and out. Some areas needed extra care, and he clearly put in that effort. The inside reminded me like when I first got my car. The ceramic coating added that final layer of protection. And he even took the time to recommend other places if I wanted to continue restoring certain parts of the car. All of his recommendations have been stellar, kind, and Im proud to say I was recommended by Lim. What really stood out to me is that he treated my car with the same level of respect and attention as the high-end vehicles he usually works on. He even mentioned that it reminded him of when he first started--when someone is truly invested in transformation. And that's exactly what this experience felt like! Driving my car afterward didn't just feel like driving a clean car--it felt like a reset. It felt empowering. Like stepping into something new. That's exactly what I needed. Lim is not only incredibly skilled at what he does, he's also just a genuinely good human being. You can tell this is someone who cares deeply about his craft and about people. I honestly wish I could give more than five stars. His work speaks for itself! Attaching photos of how shiny, like mirror/glass, the ceramic coating and shine my car has! Thank you Lim/Detailed by Precision!
