I had a terrible experience with Carsmetics working with Joey on auto body repairs for my Range Rover. After spending thousands of dollars, I picked up my vehicle only to realize the Range Rover emblem was completely missing from the back of my car--even though it was supposed to be replaced. I had to wait almost a full month for them to finally get the emblem in and schedule me to come back. When I returned to have it installed, they put the emblem on crooked and not straight at all. I called immediately to let them know and Joey told me there was nothing he could do because his team used the "styrofoam guide" that comes with the emblem and therefore claimed it should be straight. Even after admitting the issue, he refused to fix the poor workmanship unless I paid more money for additional parts to correct their mistake. This was extremely unprofessional, and I'm disappointed that after paying so much, I still left with sloppy work and no accountability. I would not recommend Carsmetics to anyone. read more

I had minor damage on my Honda Fit. My family had been here before with Joey-we went back and the experience was excellent. He gave us a quote, we left the car and it was ready within 2 days. Could not ask for better service with a rear bumper that looks like new. read more

Needed to have my rear bumper/ back panels fixed after being rear ended by an uninsured Lyft driver. Found these guys on Yelp, and am glad I did. Dealt with manager Joey from start to finish. Estimate was competitive ( original bid was almost 2 years ago immediately after the accident, but insurance was non cooperative. Statute of limitations was running out...) I was there on Saturday and insurance gave me the okay ( money!) on Monday. Car was ready and washed when I picked it up. I noticed the rear light wasn't sitting perfectly in its space; called Joey up and he told me to bring it in. They removed the entire bumper in order to correct the problem. Staff was friendly and professional. Car looks awesome. Thank you Joey!!! read more

Carsmetics - No more dents!!! - Body Shops Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

I chose CARSMETICS, 3990 Ulmerton Rd, Clearwater, Fl based on the star ratings on YELP.com even thought their price seemed somewhat high for refinishing the hood and roof panel and head light refinish/restoration of my wife's KIA Soul. ($1681.51). The hood and roof finish looks good but color seems a little darker in the sunlight and the light lenses still have some smudges showing. They also left the lower windshield dirty and white power foot prints on the door sills, arm rest and white specs on the engine. (see pictures). I don't mean to sound petty, but when I pay good price to a highly rated professional I expect to get a complete professional job. Also, they took 7 days to complete job. read more

A highschooler in shop class would've done a better job. They didn't repair all that was damaged. The door that was damaged doesn't line up. I kept hearing a strange sound that sounded like that window was partially open. After further inspection the rubber seal that goes around the door is not straight, wavy, and attached with blue pins that do not hold it very secure. Definitely an aftermarket piece of crap. Since my car uses oil occassionally, I keep a 5 quart bottle of 0W-20 with me. I checked the oil the other day and what was in my car? 5W-30 with 2 quarts left in a Valvoline bottle. I haven't bought Valvoline in years! There also is a piece missing in the part you hold to close the door. The battery was darn near dead and barely started the car. Since I was in the process of moving 2 hours south, starting a new job, and still working long hours at the present job, I did not bring the car back. There was no time. It was several weeks after I picked up the car did I have time to do a thorough inspection. Therefore, not only did they do half the job, the work done was shotty, I had to buy a new battery, the inside of the car was filthy, and they stole a $35 bottle of oil leaving me with 2 quarts of oil that if I didn't notice before I used it, would have destroyed the engine. read more

Great service! Damaged my front fender. A friend recommended Carsmetics. Mike & Joey could not have been more helpful & courteous. They explained the whole process & that was exactly what happened. Repairs done in the time they told me & results - aaah! Like new! A happy resolution to an unhappy event! read more

We went to Carsmedics due to a friend had brought her car there and been satisfied. We made the decision to go with them and scheduled the appointment. We were well informed throughout the process of what parts would be replaced and painted and there was a large part of the front grill/bumper that was not being replaced. We were called just after 5 pm and told our car was ready for pickup. We arrived and waited several minutes before our car was brought around to the front parking area. We were told the car wash part of the process is what caused the delay. We went out to inspect the car and the black grill/bumper piece was smeared with I still don't know what. The gentleman handling our pickup said it was dust and it would come off. I tried rubbing it dry and wet and it was not coming off. Then we noticed the blue paint on the bumper. The gentleman took the car back to the shop and they supposedly did some compounding to get rid of the blue paint and all the smears. He brought the car back to us and I saw no improvement. My husband went inside to pay and I went to sit in the car as I was not feeling well. Upon opening the door I found my mat dislodged from the hooks as well as dirty, the steering wheel, the door panel and the seats all had dirt on them. When the gentleman came back out with my husband i showed him the interior of the car. He said "that's from me getting in and driving it around back. It's just dust." So, I took my dirty car home. I work at a company that does detailing and I hope they can clean it and undo the smears on my grill/bumper. Overall not a great experience. read more

Carsmetics and specifically Willie took great care of me when I had a relatively large scrape on the front right of my bumper. The paint was scraped off and the bumper needed to be popped in! I took the vehicle in for a quote which was quick and easy and from there was able to schedule an appointment. Carsmetics only held on to the car for one day and the job looks great. I recommend their services for any minor paint/fender damage you may have. read more

I recently had an accident and took my car to these folks, and wow was I happily surprised. They did such a beautiful job that I'm going back to make the rest of the care look new. I Love my 2005 yellow Focus that Joey called Big Bird, because of its bright yellow sunshine color. It wasn't cheap, but neither was the service. If you Love your car and have an accident, these are the folks who will take good care of her. Thank you read more

I went for an estimate, and the guy walked around my car, which mind you had very little to zero body work needed, and said oh this is going to cost you 6k at least for just a paint job on a small toyota corolla, out of their minds. read more

Quick, professional, quality work. I would highly recommend this shop for any vehicle body work need. Took my vehicle in for a bumper issue and was ready to go within 2 hours. read more

AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! I drive by this body shop every time I go for a Cuban sandwich across the street. Today I decided to finally swing in there before I went for my lunch just to get an idea of what a repair would cost. I had backed my car into a trailer a bit too fast and it indented and pulled out the bumper from it's regular location. I tried to get everything to snap back into place by myself with no luck. Scott Evans got down on the ground under the car and had completely fixed the bumper within three minutes, now it looks like nothing happened (except for the scratches), everything is back in it's proper place! I asked how much, Scott said "nothing" - WOW! I will go back when ready to get the bumper re-painted. Amazing customer service, I will be back and I highly recommend. read more

After constant quotes from various body shops and leaving feeling ripped off, I was pleasantly surprised to discover Carsmetics. They are certainly a gem in the rough. Not only was the price right, the work was exceptional. Joey and the crew here really care about their customer. They genuinely take pride in the finished product. Look no further, you have found your body shop! read more

Never thought I would give 5 stars to a body shop but Carsmetics went above and beyond. From the quote and introduction Mike was clear, fair and helpful. Dropped off the car they not only took care of rental but when the rental company was taking too long one of the crew drove me over to get me going. Forgot to mention this all happen after they were "closed". Car was complete on time for the price quoted. Can't say enough. Rarely do you get this service and a great price. read more

Excellent Service Ever!! I had a front Bumper Scratch on my Corvette, they had given the lowest quote. Got a free rental when I dropped off the car. They took a day to fix the scratch, and also took care of some chipping near the air dam of the bumper which I had not noticed earlier. And all this at a very reasonable price!! Joey and his staff were very professional and the quality of work is excellent. read more

So I hit my brand new car over the weekend and I was devastated thinking I was going to be spending a fortune and that it was going to look refurbished. To be honest I didn't even want to car anymore. I went and saw Joey at carsmetics and he fixed my car good as new. No joke, it looks like I didn't even hit it!! And I got an insanely low price. They had my estimate and car fixed in a matter of ONE full day. I don't know of anywhere that charges a reasonable price and gets your car in and out in no time. Plus he did a little extra work for no charge. These guys are great!!! Go check them out. read more

I took my car after an accident and Joey took care of everything for me , he called the insurance for me and fixed the car within one week. I am very satisfied with the service. My car looks great again. Very much recommend. read more

Had some minor damage to our car and took it to Carsmetics. I had previous work done by them on a previous vehicle and had been very happy with the quality of the repairs as well as the timeliness of it and the reasonable cost level. After our car was looked at he came out , repaired one piece, and rubbed out the scratch. Suggested that it might be better to postpone any further work at this time. That level of integrity and honesty can't be beat. Absolutely my " go to" guys. Recommend them highly. read more

My experience at Carsmetics was excellent! The staff was very responsive and professional. Had a very pleasant surprise when it was time to pay the bill found that the final cost came in less than the estimate due to the skill of their staff. Highly recommend this location for your repairs!! read more

Wouldn't provide me a repair estimate because I mentioned that the insurance company was requesting that I obtain a repair estimate. Not helpful. read more

As good as it gets. Having a fleet of vehicles that are constantly dinged and dented, we tend to drop off and pick up a lot at Carsmetics. We couldn't be happier with the outcome of the vehicles and the level of service we get from them. I'd highly recommend. read more

This place is awesome. I came in without an appointment and they totally hooked me up fixing a little boo-boo I did to my hatchback. I didn't even wait; they jumped in and made my car look so much better. I came here because my friend recommended it... And I am recommending it to all of you! Mike did a great job! read more

Carsmetics on Ulmerton took a very badly painted rear bumper and turned into a professionally restored matching bumper on my Honda... all within 24 hours. I was very pleased with both Joey the manager and the work performed on the car. My only suggestion is that the office/waiting area is less than professional looking and would benefit from some upgrades. read more

This was the best place I could have gone to for getting my car fixed. The service was amazing, Joey is a great manager to work with. Everything looks as if nothing ever happened to my car and it was done extremely quick. The price was fair and it was worked out with my insurance company, etc. I would recommend this location to anyone who has to get anything fixed on their car. Joey made what was a stressful experience for me, so easy. Thank you so much!! read more

The staff is very friendly and helpful. But of course that is when they over charge. Definite highway robbery! Was quoted and told an car part would be replaced. $500 later found out only certain pieces of the part where replaced. Never again!! read more

Excellent and fast service. No appointment needed to get your car looked at. I went in for a front bumper repair and it took all of 20 minutes. Maybe call ahead to see if they are busy. read more

Rear ending a cement pole is bad enough.. thanks to Joey and the Carsmetics team, the price to fix it was the best news I got all week.

I walked in and had a great experience after a stressful ordeal with someone hitting my car and taking off. Mike was great with giving me an estimate and also providing me with a rental while my car was being worked on. Could not have asked for better service, highly recommend this location. read more

took my Mercedes to Carsmetics to repair a small crack in the fender and repair some scratches on the rocker panel. When I went to pick up the car, I saw the crack was still visible through the paint. The manager agreed to redo the repair and repaint of the fender panel. When I picked it up the second time I saw the repair was still visible, although less so. When I returned home, I noticed the paint on the rocker panel did not match the car color. I called the manager, but was disappointed when he offered no explanation or any remedy. I guess the final straw was when I went to wash the car, I noticed the fender and door next to the fender was very rough. That's when I realized they got over-spray on these when they repainted the fender. If you like quality workmanship, I would not recommend Carsmetics. read more

Outstanding customer service, very reasonable prices, and my car looks great! They even made my headlights look new again. Very happy.

I was so impressed with the customer service I received from Joey and Mark. Joey handles the front desk side of things, and he thoroughly explained what the technician would do and even thought of a couple creative way to repair the bodywork problems with my car that would cost less money than a full-scale repair. I was most appreciative of this, and he even gave me some great tips on cruise vacations. :) Very personable and professional! Mark was the technician who worked on my car, and I have to say he did a superb job. Everything about this experience was positive, and I would definitely go to them again if my car needed bodywork. read more
