Rude owner. He was talking down on me the entire time and overheard him talking bad about me. Fix your attitude before fixing cars.

A bit racist? Or just having a bad day??? It's cool. I'll take my business elsewhere. But. I'll make sure to post a review as I mention face to face. Won't be taking any of my vehicles here. I need to make sure of this. And that is why I'm writing this review. read more

I am so lucky to get the information that this car paint shop is the best in the South Bay Area. My car almost due to retuning to the dealer in the end of the lease and the inspector came and found out some scratches on my body of car. I brought my car to this shop 8am, having an appointment with the owner previous time. Quick: same day painting. I put my car 8am and the owner called me around 2pm that the jobs done. It's pretty quick that I put my car and met my friends who living in this area, and having a breakfast with them to catch the latest. And I pick my car up at 2pm. Unbeatable price. He just suggested $200 and we negotiated and $150 for the conclusion. I mean it's negotiable with the owner before to pay them. The job is clear. As my car came out of back area where my car dried after the painting, it was shine as it's new. The scratch and all the dirt gone and twinkle. The bonus. The owner is the kindest person I've ever met lately. He is professional and very trustworthy. So don't be afraid of coming this paint shop. This is different from other auto paint where catching, riffing off, the job not clear. I returned my car spending only $150, while my BMW dealer in Monrovia he'd been riffing off $2,400 when my leased car returned. I mean I saved lots of money. read more

Went again, and of course was very satisfied. I drive from Culver City. It's a bit of a drive but worth it knowing that it's done right the first time and saves me from being ripped off. this time my car has a very unique blue metallic paint and i was worried it wouldn't look right when done. low and behold, perfect-o. just like new. thanks Kenny! read more

I have taken several cars to this Gardena body shop for years and I have always been a fan of this place. Kenny, the owner, pays great attention to detail in his work and I have always gotten our cars back (Japanese & European) in pristine condition, at a very reasonable quote. read more

Best place ever, the owner is super nice. I visited here about my car scratch, and he just used some solution wiped it off , made it not that noticeable, so I don't need spend a lot money on it. Super recommend here. read more

I love this place. Kenny will always offer you options on how to fix your vehicle, depending on how much you can afford. He's very transparent, and will tell you exactly what needs to be done, and how it will look. I've been with this business for over 10 years, and he has a great reputation with other automotive businesses in the area. Some of the things I've had fixed here: rear-ended bumper with broken tailights, smashed-in front bumper, broken fuel lid door, dented rear doors. These were all from different accidents, and I keep coming back. As for the guy who gave this business two stars, go look at his other reviews. Dude complains about everything, and is way too emotional. This is a trustworthy business, and Kenny knows his stuff. read more

I've been going here for years. Always great service and pricing. Kenny is a great guy to work with.

You shouldn't belittle your potential customers over the phone.

I went to Kenny to repair damages to my car after my first car accident per my dad's recommendation. I was reared into by a car in a parking lot and my front bumper and 1 headlight was damaged. I had to replace my bumper and my headlight and because the guy who hit my car wasn't registered to his vehicle, I had to pay cash. He was incredibly friendly and quick but most importantly HONEST. It's hard to tell with people in this industry with insurance and all but he was thorough in this explanation about my options. My back bumper had a slight dent in it (my fault so I hadn't fixed it) and he gave me a great price to straighten it out. Since that first visit in 2005, I've returned to him 2x for auto repairs. When my windshield shattered (cause unknown), he kindly referred me to a 2nd hand auto glass replacement dealer instead of ordering a new one from the dealer as to help me save some moola. If Gardena is convenient enough for you, I'd highly recommend you check them out. read more

That's funny, I guess people have different experiences, cause I got a great price on fixing my mirror and windshield.

This body shop is the best place to get your car fixed. The owner is Kenny and he works with his pride to get the job done right. This place guarantees the work, and Kenny did 3 cars for my kids with 100% satisfaction !!! read more

Just got my car back today from this shop today and I'm so happy with their work! I lost my bumper in a fender bender and my drivers side door was dented from a previous hit and run. The work was impeccable and they even washed and vacuumed my car! It looks like the day i got it! read more

Professional and fast service! I came into the store freaking out since the insurance company of a person who rear-ended my car didn't give me the full amount back for all my damages, but I'm so glad I found Gardena Custom Body shop. Mr. Kenny definitely knows what he is doing, and despite the location of the business, has done some amazing work on both of my cars-- a BMW and Honda Accord. Mr. Kenny was able to give me an estimate that was way lower than what other, larger auto body shops were charging me. So long story short, thanks to this place I was able to repair not only my highly damaged accord from a rear ending but also the lower door panel of my BMW and some work underneath as well for a price that's unbeatable. All transactions are paid through cash, of which I was skeptical about initially, but with the finished result I've never been more satisfied with work done to my cars. Thank you! I will definitely be coming back in the future if anything happens! read more

I took my car here a while back after getting into my first accident. The main guy here is Kenny and he is really friendly. You can easily tell that he's one of those people that takes pride in the job he does, and really makes sure he gets everything right the first time so that there are no lingering issues later on. In addition to his precision to detail, he is honest and sincere and you can tell he enjoys what he does, and you just get that family type of vibe from him. read more
