My Subaru dealer recommended them. I have not only used them for my Subaru, but have used them for other cars, and recommended them to multiple people. They have always done a great job for me and everyone that I recommended them to. They are very honest. I completely trust them and their pricing is very reasonable. read more

This company is beyond amazing, the people I spoke to were very informative, professional, and knowledgeable. They gave us a solid estimate along with a plan for alternative options . read more

My Subaru dealer recommended this body shop & am so glad I went there. I had a couple of dings & paint scrapes from some other car doors hitting mine. I was so pleased about how the whole car repair process worked. The staff there are knowledgeable and friendly. If needed again, I will have my car repaired at Forrest Auto Body. read more

I brought my car to Forest Auto Body as the dealer suggested. I was a little sceptic at the beginning because it looks like a real small place . Tyler did his best on helping but what I did appreciate the most is that it's a family own bussines and they will work with you on a personal level. The repair took a little longer than expected but it was because of the insurance people dragging their feet on communication. At the end the result was great! The car looks like new! read more

Forrest Auto Body - Car to be repaired - Body Shops Near Me - Elgin, Illinois

Fantastic workmanship. Great professionalism. Quick turn around and even took $100 off what I owed. Great guys, doing great and quality work. I'm sorry I needed them, but if I ever need them again I wouldn't take any of my vehicles anywhere else. They guys know their stuff and do a great job. I'd even say my car feels like it drives better than the day I got it. Be sure to ask for Mike. Not sure, but I feel like he probably is the owner/manager and he's really great to work with. Thanks again Forrest Auto Body! read more

I appreciate your quick response but at this point I fail to see what you can do now that you didn't do the 3 months you had it. when another body shop pointed out a missing screw, i decided that I won't be taking it back to your shop. as not only did your shop do a poor job, but also didn't do everything I asked for. read more

I couldn't be more pleased with how the staff at Forrest Auto Body worked on my car. I brought it in with a gouge in the door that someone had made with a key. Tyler, behind the desk, treated me with courtesy, answered all my questions & took care of the insurance. The gouge was totally smoothed over & the door repainted beautifully. And, wonder of wonders, the interior had been tidied and vacuumed. The car looked better than when I brought it in. I felt the price of the work was very fair. I would have no problem recommending them to family, friends & anyone needing work on their car. read more

What a great place. I was dealing with a difficult insurance company and these guys made it all happen. They did a wonderful job on my Camry. There are closer places for me to go, but I will make the drive to Forrest Auto, they were very nice to work with. read more

Had an accident with my 2014 Subaru Forester XT and was turned to this shop from my dealership as their preferred. Great experience. Went for an estimate and within a week after working with my insurance company I dropped the car off. Was told three days and didn't take any longer than that. Replaced the front bumper and other parts and they did an amazing job matching the paint. The fit on the bumper looked perfect and doesn't even look like I had an accident. Looks just as good as the day I bought the car. Thank you Forrest Auto Body! read more

I have had to take my car in for body work twice. Both times I used Forrest Auto Body and I was not disappointed. The work was finished exactly when they said it would be! The dents I had were not exactly routine. The doors on my car have grooves and contours. The repairs were done perfectly and the workmanship was exceptional. The cost of the repairs were consistent with other bodyshops that I compared. I would highly recommend Forrest Auto Body to everyone I know. read more

Mike is the most amazing person I have met in a very long time. I have never been in the situation to need a body shop or rental car service. Mike helped out from start to finish. He made this entire process easy and painless. I did not expect for my Jeep to be cleaned inside and out!! So awesome!! Thank you Mike and Forrest Auto Body team for all of your hard work. Truly an amazing group of people!!! read more

Forrest automotive is a family ran company dedicated to quality workmanship. Each encounter with Mike and Tyler was very friendly and professional. Their expertise and focus to detail was remarkable. They had fixed my car's bodywork to the point as if it came of a showroom floor. They took the extra time to order a part that made a complete difference in the overall ride and performance of my car. My vehicle has never driven so nicely. Thanks again Mike, Tyler and employees for all your great work. Donna read more

I dealt with three different people in the few times I was there to have body work done. Everyone of them was very pleasant and as helpful as could be. The body work on my Infiniti FX35 was done in a timely manner and the quality of the work was top notch. When I picked the car up, it had a higher shine on it than I believe it has ever had since i owned it. I hope i don't need them, but if I do, I will go back to Forrest Auto Body. read more

Only great things to say about Forest Auto Body. I had two instances of people hitting my Subaru and after bringing it to Forest, it looks good as new- maybe even better! Mike was helpful and patient while dealing with my insurance company and I couldn't be happier with the way my car turned out. Not to mention the great customer service I received. I highly recommend Forest to anyone looking for good, honest work done on their car. read more

Went to Forest Auto Body because our car had been hit and her insurance company sent us here. They did a great job, got the job done quickly and were very professional! Thanks Forest Auto Body! read more

I have a 2012 Ram 1500 Longhorn that had factory painted bumpers that were completely chipped and rust spots were all over. The Ram dealership stated that the rust was caused by rock chips, but the rear bumper had rust as well was not rock chips which they could NOT explain. Long story short RAM was going to give me a $200 credit to go to a body shop they use as they no longer do body work onsite. Long story short I went to a couple of local body shops to get estimates. Of the 3 shops I went to they were very different on approach to performing the work. I selected Forrest Auto Body as Mike the Owner, while not the cheapest was the most knowledgeable and took much time to explain the process he would follow as well as the quality in materials and time he would provide to my job. He was so understanding and confident I had him take off the cheap factory pin-striping as well as well as the hood decals and repaint the hood and paint custom hood stripes. Mike hit a home run and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a comprehensive quality solution. Forrest Autobody is NOT a MAACO or cheap paint shop, they are a shop that does the work correctly, no quick fixes. This is the first time I have used Forrect Autobody under the new ownership and they are my body shop of choice going forward. 2 thumbs up Mike and staff! read more

I just had my Lexus LS400 repaired at this location. I told them about my car that I need good work done on the car. I was surprised to see they really did a great job on the car and the customer service was also really good, they fixed the car in the time given they had promised. Very satisfied with the result and happy, I would highly recommend this place if you ever in need of any body work, they are friendly and professional....I am glad I picked this place to get my car fixed. Thanks to Mike and Bret great job guys : ) read more

These guys do flawless work! Everything looks just like new after repairs to my daughter's car. Highly recommended. Brett and Mike are very accommodating. They work easily with your insurance. Hope I never have to, but if so I won't go anywhere else! read more

I ripped off a rear body side piece on the side of my Jeep while pulling into my very narrow garage way too quickly. I brought my Jeep to Mike who told me not to worry and it wouldn't take long at all to fix. Well, I came back three days later and WoW! It looked better than I ever expected. It was perfect! Even the paint was a perfect match! I would definitely go there there again. Its hard to find a good body shop and mechanic that you can trust and isn't in it to rip you off and I finally found it! This is a very professional operation with a friendly service approach. I highly recommend Forest auto body in Elgin! read more
