Seriously, best auto body shop in Lake Forest. My vehicle was, unfortunately, involved in a…read morehit-and-run. The front quarter panel was completely dented in, along with other damages. I had taken my vehicle to over six body shops in the area to request an inspection and quote for repairs. Out of all six shops, CARSTAR Lake Forest had the most affordable pricing- even for OEM parts and labor. Compared to other shops in the area, they also had the fastest turnaround time, which was important to me since I didn't have insurance to cover a rental. The process was really simple. I went in, someone assessed my vehicle and provided a printed quote. Since I was going through with insurance, once the claim was filed and the quote was submitted, I scheduled a time to drop off my vehicle. The turnaround was about a week, whereas other shops were saying it'd be roughly two weeks. They were able to continually keep me in the loop regarding repairs via text and calls, so I was really appreciative of the communication. The cherry on top would be the day of pickup. CARSTAR was kind enough to provide a complimentary car washing service, which included the interior as well! This auto body shop definitely goes above and beyond for their customers. I was extremely happy and content with their level of professionalism, workmanship, and customer service. Having a shop that was able to contact me via text (since I am very busy) was a plus!

I've since come back for more work to be done and have been consistently pleased with the entire experience. They're good people that pay attention to details. Can't recommend this place enough.

After driving my brand new CX-5 for 2 months, I was rear ended on the freeway. Since this shop is close to my house and had excellent reviews, I decided to bring it here. Dennis and the team at Santa Margarita Auto Body are absolutely top notch. When I dropped the car off, they were quick and efficient and even arranged a ride to the Enterprise office down the street. The repair was done in a timely fashion and I'm pretty sure the paint matches better now than it did from the factory. These guys really know their craft and should I ever need it, I won't go anywhere else.

I had someone hit my Mercedes-Benz and was referred to Legacy Auto Body as a quality shop that provides top shelf repairs at competitive pricing. I stopped in and spoke with the owner Peter Rivera. What a true professional and someone who you know will handle your project with the utmost care, skill and quality. I dropped my car off and Peter gave me updates along the way and when I picked up the car it looked new. He even took care of a small chip on the hood that wasn't mentioned as part of the project. Peter and his team are true craftsmen and artists in their trade. I have since referred Legacy Auto Body to many friends and neighbors and can't thank Peter and his team of professionals enough for the quality experience, transparency, honesty and stellar customer service.
