    Refugio and his assistant did a good job repairing a dent/scratch across the door and quarter panel of my 2023 white Tesla. Paint was a perfect match.

    We cannot recommend New Way Mobile more! We are based out of San Diego, and he drove all the way down from LA to repair our car back in Oct last year from the comfort of our driveway. Talk about customer service! He is responsive, kind, and efficient. This repair took about 5 hours, which is a great deal considering if you bring your car into a shop it could take a few days. New Way Mobile offers affordable quality repairs. Super happy with the outcome :)

    They're great and excellent. They made it look like brand new. I'm amazed by their dent and paint repair. I had someone keyed and accidentally scratch my car.

    Refugio's work was first class! He came to my apartment and repaired my car in two hours! If you are looking for an honest reputable specialist Refugio is your man!

    I cannot say enough good things about Refugio from New Way Mobile Auto Paint. Honestly, he's a gem. From the moment I reached out, he was kind, communicative, and professional. He came straight to me, arrived when he said he would, and made the whole process so easy and stress-free. His work is outstanding and beautiful -- my car looks brand new again. You can tell he really cares about the quality of what he does, and he takes pride in his craft. On top of that, his price was more than fair. It was significantly lower than the other quotes I received. He finished everything within a few hours, so I didn't have to leave my car at a shop for 3+ days (like with other auto body shops). All I had to do was let it dry at home for a few hours. So convenient! What really stood out to me and made a lasting impression was his warmth and integrity. He's one of those rare people who just makes you feel taken care of. I felt like I was in good hands the entire time. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, skilled, and genuinely kind, Refugio is your person. I recommend him 1000% and will tell all my friends & family to call him for any auto body needs. I'm so grateful I found him -- truly an amazing experience from start to finish.

    Text exchange with the business

    I should have paid attention to the reviews about this business. After reaching out for a quote and finding it reasonable, I booked their services. We agreed on Wednesday at 9 AM, and I even confirmed the appointment again Tuesday evening when they texted to verify the color code. Then, at nearly 8 AM Wednesday morning, with no consideration for my schedule, I received a text rescheduling to Saturday due to an unspecified "emergency." I was not asked whether Saturday worked for me; I was simply told. Due to their clear disregard for customers' time, I am cancelling the service.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Refugio did an amazing job on my Tesla! Multiple other shops either said they couldn't fix it or it would require taking the car to them and leaving it there for 3-5 days. Refugio and his team showed up at my house, setup a mobile body shop on the street and had the car fixed the same day! And the price was fair. Highly recommend for anyone with dents or paint issues.

    The team refugio and Juan Manuel wet sand and compound and polished my paint to be perfectly smooth without swirls, contaminants and shine to match the rest of my vehicle. I've included over 40 photos in my yelp review of this business. They do fast work and always hear everything the customers has to say and never rushes your questions. It sounds like they take insurance too. They were able to polish my window from industrial fallout to a clear glass which I'm very happy with now. I would 10/10 without a doubt recommend refugio and his business new way mobile auto paint to everyone friends and family alike. They come to you finish in one day and you don't have to go carless for weeks at a normal body shop.

    Hector and his partner were AMAZING at fixing up some nasty scratches on my car. Additionally, the initial response from Refugio was super quick and he was patient with all my questions - despite the upcoming holiday weekend. I was absolutely panicked given that this was one of my first larger damages on my car and honestly hesitant, but all my anxieties were luckily proven wrong because this team truly saved my car for a great price. The team was able to get the job done in about 5 hours, slightly quicker than originally estimated which was 6-7 hours, in one day. Meanwhile I had several shops estimating 2-3 days at minimum to 1 week in the shop for repair for 4x-5x the cost not including my own cost of finding a rental for the duration. For additional context on the photos and damage - I had hit the corner of a wall (swear it came out of nowhere!!) with some metal and large screws and it cut into the side of my car right by the back passenger door and wheel.

    New Way did a great job. So much more convenient and way less expensive than going to the body shop. I highly recommend them. Different lighting on before/after pictures but I promise it looks great

    Recently used New Way Mobile for a few deep scratches on my car. Hector was on time and did a phenomenal job. He was very meticulous and the work product speaks for itself.

    Fast, responsive, professional. I made an appointment with them within a day and they came in the next day. They did a very good job.

However, I took my car "that I've always taken to the dealer for an oil change" here. And the next day it was leaking oil everywhere. Unfortunately, I wasn't in town to bring it right away, and had to bring it back to the shop about 2 weeks later . (Still leaking btw) they said it was the "gasKeT" and I would have to pay another $48 to get this repaired. They said I should have brought it the day after i got the oil changed. Later after all the back and forth they offered to cover the costs for labor ,but I would have to pay for the part. Which was $3. I did not expect for them to charge me at all considering i had returned literally about 2 weeks later. (And called them over the phone twice to advise what was going on" They said i was "taking advantage" and told me god was watching. They said there was no way of knowing the part was damaged or defective . In my opinion they should have checked the gasket while doing the oil change . I ended up paying $10 which I didn't feel was fair but; at least they could pay off their $3 part they replaced. Next day after the lecture and "repair" ITS LEAKING AGAIN! haaaahahah now I have to go to the dealer and figure out what they broke on my car. I'm glad I didn't pay the $48 the second time around considering I came in with a car that was perfectly fine and left with a leaking car . THANK YOU LA TIRES AND AUTO BODY SHOP !!! :) I've spent $120 total for oil, filter, labor, a "gasket" and now I have a car with a bigger problem and NO OIL . DO NOT GO HERE !

Back to the lady who has zero customer service skills... do not raise your voice at a customer bc you accused me of having a bad experience with your coworker. And then when I responded asking about how you behaved, you shout "i dont want to argue!!" Please develop some awareness if you want to be client facing. First rule is greet customers in a friendly manner and act inquisitive. What is so hard about saying u will give me a receipt instead of being mute and unresponsive as I am standing there wondering what i am supposed be waiting for... and then acting like u are the victim... roll the footage bc you were already off the phone and could have communicated what normal people in CS do. Be more respectable. DO NOT TREAT CUSTOMERS THAT WAY BC YOU LOOK AND ACT MISERABLE.

Sidle's is conveniently located near my office, and after reading their excellent reviews, I decided to bring my car there. From the moment I arrived, I had a great experience. Frank was courteous, professional, and patient with all my questions. He clearly explained the repairs that were needed and how the two insurance claims would be handled, without ever being pushy. The shop is clean and tidy. I saw they have the ability to fix and paint the parts -- not just order replacement parts and place them on the car -- which was relevant to my case. Sidle's is also a AAA-approved shop, which made the insurance process very easy. They even helped arrange a ride to the rental car location so I could pick up my rental while the car was being repaired. My car was ready ahead of schedule, and I was genuinely impressed when I saw it. There had been significant body damage, and the repaired areas now look fantastic--the car looks almost new again. I am very happy with the job done and my experience there. Excellent workmanship, great service, and a very smooth experience from beginning to end. Five stars. I would absolutely recommend Sidle's.

His team gave me a reasonable estimate and got to work right away once I put down my deposit. ​ The turnaround was much faster than I expected, and they even took the time to have the truck washed and the interior cleaned. Seeing it looking like itself again meant a lot. Thank you. ​ I'm also grateful that Karee and his team took the time to answer my questions.
