With an older car (assuming it is in good mechanical condition) and no collusion insurance, one…read moremoderately inexpensive way to fix that car after an accident, is to remove parts (especially body parts and certain mechanical parts, e.g., the radiator) and use them instead of new parts. However, it takes a good auto body shop with skilled personnel to provide that expertise and service. Central Illinois did an excellent job on my car; they even found a Kia sportage (blown engine) of the same color to use for parts for my car, to eliminate the cost of a new paint job. FYI, with insurance, the insurance company will often pressure you to select a repair shop that will use cheaper new parts to save the insurance company money. YOU MAKE the FINAL SELECTION for the repair shop, so work that has an insurance company behind it would ALSO be best done at a reputable and highly competent body shop, like Central Illinois.

After an unfortunate run-in with my parking garage, I needed some body work done. I went to several…read moreshops in town and ended up deciding on Dave's. The first thing I noticed about his shop was that Dave and his employee's were car people. He had several classic cars in the back, and being a car guy my self, I knew that he would treat my car right. He was willing to work with me on the price and was cheaper than any of the other places I received estimates from. The work was completed on time and looked great! I would not hesitate to come back to Dave's in the future and recommend this shop to anyone needing body work.

Scraped my car door two weeks ago. Every shop I took it to wanted over 3 grand and that they needed…read moreto replace the whole door and repaint the car to match it. I brought it to Ivey's and they fixed it in 4 days with a price tag that can only be considered a slap on the wrist-- without replacing the door either. If you need something done well and done fast, bring it to Ivey's. If you want to listen to corporate shills tell you long roundabout stories about how no one can possibly fix your door and pester you to call your insurance company to fork out 3 grand for work you don't need and don't want, go somewhere else. Also, remember to bring cash.

Scam for overcharge, which I am still trying to fight. I asked for a replacement of a single front…read moreparking sensor - no other damages on the car, because there was no collision. When giving me the estimate, the estimator was very nice, pointing to the $425 charge, saying that if there are no other damages, he will be honest and will remove this charge. Later I was charged the full amount of $962.10. When I called for the estimator to clear what I thought was a misunderstanding, he was gone. The mechanic showed me the replaced single parking sensor, while the manager gave me some prints telling me that the calibration was required by Toyota. Only the print was about the Adaptive Cruise Control - completely independent from the parking assist system. At the following meeting with the manager and the estimator, the estimator denied his promise, and became very unpleasant. The manager refunded only $70, and on my question what for, she said for the in-house pre-scan. I let them know that they still owe me the rest of $355, for which I will fight.There was no calibration required on any of the other estimates for the same repair, and since after subtracting the calibration of $425, Gerber's estimate was the cheapest, I trusted their guy - big mistake. In blogs, people warn that if the mechanic says that after replacing a parking sensor, calibration is required, go to another one. Somehow they erase all negative feedback on google. This is why I never trust google reviews.

Everyone I spoke to, or met with, at Gerber was very nice and extremely helpful. The repairs took about two weeks and during that time Ryan contacted me every few days to give me updates. He explained, in detail, what they were doing throughout the process and answered every question I had in a way that made it easy to understand. The job was finished two days earlier than estimated and the quality of the work is fantastic. You would have no idea there was ever any damage to the rear end. I'm extremely satisfied and will recommend them whenever the opportunity arises.
