I never write reviews but this outstanding act deserves to be known. You are dealing with an auto body shop (arguably the best in SF.), that not only is highly efficient and fair, but this auto body shop did something for me that still has my mind blown. I called in asking about an estimate for some cosmetic damage to my front fender. I had backed out of a garage spot and missed that a pole was sitting right there. It had detached my fender from the car and gave it a couple scrapes. I am getting ready to sell this car so I was just checking how much it would cost to repair and wether it would be worth spending the money to do it or not. I got back a fair estimate but it was more than I wanted to put back into the car so I asked if they could tell me how much just to reattach the fender. I was not sure if it could just be snapped in or if it needed new parts etc. They said come here tomorrow at 10 and they will reattach it for you. I asked how much it would cost for this service. The girl texts back "oh, it won't cost you anything. It should only take 5-10 minutes to do". I was flabbergasted! This amazing auto body shop reattached my fender for free for me. Not only that but they removed the paint scuffs from the pole itself. Who even does that these days!? It was above and beyond what a business does or even would think to do in these times. Sal and Gene.... THANK YOU!!! I will recommend your shop to anyone who will listen. And plan on using you in the future if needed! You really are fantastic and It helped restore some faith in humanity what you did for me. read more

Had a bumper cover replaced by Selecta. Everything about my experience with them was great. Set up a visit to get an estimate easily. Estimate took 15 minutes . Ended up deciding to get the cover replaced rather than repaired. The cover looks perfect (selecta had to paint the bumper cover delivered from the automaker). It took as long as they said it would and not longer. They communicated everything very clearly and everyone i interacted was friendly and professional. I would go back there for future work. read more

I couldn't be happier , they are very professional , 5 stars to Eugene !!!thank you guys

I gotta say these guys take pride in their work and go above and beyond. I brought in my Honda Civic for a repair after an accident. There was damage to the hood, bumper, and possibly some structural damage as well. They fixed my car in a timely manner, and did a ton more as well. Gene and Anthony kept me in the loop with communication via phone (though I sometimes didn't pick up the phone -- I was at work). The car was ready and waiting in the front when I came to pick it up. I was honestly shocked at how well they had fixed up the car. Not only did they repair the structural damage, the bumper, and the hood, but they completely detailed the entire car. The interior was spotless -- looks like they vacuumed and cleaned every last bit from the seats to the floor mats. All my miscellaneous items that were scattered about were put up front where I could see them. They washed and detailed the car. There was some difficult to remove rail dust on the paint, they removed that too. The tires were scrubbed clean and coated with a high gloss shine. There was some damage to my rims and they even helped with that! I'm almost certain that there were more things that they had fixed up that I've yet to notice. As for the actual repair itself, it was stellar. They matched the paint from the bumper to the car itself perfectly. The car looks like it was never in an accident and honestly looks far better than it did before the accident. They even let me come in a shade late to pick up the car and were courteous, prompt, and professional the whole time. I cannot recommend Selecta Auto Body enough and will definitely be recommending friends and family here. read more

I give Selecta Auto Body Repair 5 stars. We have had to have two cars repaired due to hit and runs while parked on the streets in San Francisco. First was our Honda ridgeline that someone sideswiped and had to have the whole driver side repaired. our other vehicle which we just bought in April of this year when a cement truck sideswiped the driverside rear (thankfully they left their information) which was repaired by Selecta and looks brand new. then 2 weeks ago someone swiped the front fender bumper and wheel causing minor damage but put the front end out of alignment, (bummer they did not leave any information) Selecta did a wonderful job of repairing the damage they even had the custom wheel repaired of the scratch and we had a small scratch on the front bumper they threw in the paint on that. Now the car looks like brand new Thank you Selecta and your amazing team for the wonderful work you have done on both our vehicles. Thank you Thank you Thank you read more

The best body shop in town!! Great people, Gege was really helpful they do standing work!!!

Honest, really kind people doing BEAUTIFUL work. Even coordinated with rental company so that I had to just show up and the rental company car was waiting for me. Such Great service. read more

Amazing shop. They worked on both of my cars recently. One with insurance payment for a hit and run, and one was self pay for some bumps and scratches accumulated over the years. Everyone is super nice, super competent, and their prices are very reasonable. Plus, they unexpectedly cleaned both of my cars better than I've ever done it myself for no additional fee. It's been a while since I've experienced such amazing customer service. I recommend them without reservation. read more

Run from this place! Selecta was given a great running car and returned it with a dead battery! Had a terrible and exasperating experience with Jeremy and Selecta. Honda was running great when it was brought it to Selecta for a rear end bumper replacement. One + week later picked up the car, drove it home and won't restart! AAA jumps it and says bring it to Honda as it was a fairly new OEM battery (100 month guarantee) with 73 months remaining. HONDA LETTER STATES SELECTA WAS NEGLIGENT and left battery on during the week + they were repairing it. (Open car door etc) Selecta/Jeremy says that's not their fault and refused to take responsibility. Honda said that's the only reason the battery went bad. Selecta said they will not pay for a better battery ($215) even though they were offered the replacement cost battery ($109). Either way it doesn't matter since they refuse to take responsibility for shoddy work and neglected to either disconnect the battery while in their custody or leaving it on. They were asked how they can justify this when the car was running great when they received it but died after they returned it. They said it's a bad battery (which was never disputed and was confirmed by Honda). The dispute is what caused it to go bad? The week + it was in their custody while doing body work? Or after returning to owner and parked in their garage? Running great then returned dead? Draw your own conclusions. Honda's email clearly states it was due to Selecta's negligence read more

My family has been to Selecta a number of times for different issues and we always get excellent, attentive and kind service. No one wants to deal with issues with their car! Gene and the crew there really take care of you. I have a little bit of body work and Gene gave me time, great advice and service today I didn't ask know I was getting but really helped me see the problem better and feel better about going forward with my car. Selecta will always be my go to. read more

Fantastic experience with Selecta. My new car was recently the victim of a hit & run incident in the mission, taking out the side mirror, and damaging the fender, bumper, and door. Went with Selecta because they are a preferred body shop of my insurance (Farmers), and because their reviews were so good. Worked with Andy, who was friendly and super helpful from beginning to end. He called me regularly with updates to let me know when my car would be ready. The car ended up taking only 3 working days (and 1 weekend) to fix. The Selecta team was also accommodating when I explained to them that I needed to get my car into the shop earlier than my scheduled appointment because the insurance wouldn't pay for my rental for the weekend otherwise. They have a great relationship with the rental company too, so that transaction was quick and painless as well. I can't speak for the prices Selecta offers, as my insurance covered that (minus the deductible) but the work they did appears to be really top notch. They even washed and cleaned my car before handing it back over. Overall, couldn't recommend Selecta enough. Hopefully I won't need more body work, but if I do, Selecta will be my first pick. read more

Kind of an overdue review. And I apologize to this business for taking so long to make a review. Had a major accident last year with my 2015 Toyota Highlander. Someone made an illegal u-turn across a double yellow and t-boned the front driver's side part of my car. My car was towed to this place and from there, it was easy as pie. Took care of all the insurance mumbo jumbo and got my car back in less than 2 weeks(I have State Farm). They are great and honest people who know what they are doing especially with their high tech equipment. Their communication with me was excellent! They texted or called me every so often with the status of the car and even asked me questions about how and what certain parts I wanted replaced on the car! This place and another body shop in the area are the only ones I go to and trust. read more

Selecta is unarguably one of the best customer service providers bar none! The quality of their work is top tier, but what differentiates them from others is their commitment to treating you with respect and doing the right thing. I've taken my car to Selecta for body work on two occasions and the entire team is professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Everything was executed efficiently and timely. They kept me updated throughout the process. Most recently, Selecta handled the damage on my front bumper caused by an accident. Not only did the team take care of the bumper, they also buffed out some minor blemishes in other areas of the car. They cleaned all of the exterior and my car looked nearly brand new. The treatment of my headlight lenses was miraculous, I never imagined that 12 years of cloudiness could be erased. Everyone I have interacted with at Selecta has been great! They take pride in their work and it shows. And they do it with humility. Awesome crew doing awesome work. read more

This is a long overdue review. JR, Anthony and Allison helped me through a serious auto accident. Our minivan was 1 month new when we got hit on the freeway. I chose Selecta from all the high Yelp ratings and I'm so glad we did. When you're dealing with multiple injuries, calling insurances, out of work, and not having a car, a little help is godsend. Selecta took care of the tow, checked my car, took care of everything and dealt with my car insurance. They kept us updated on the progress of our car. Even after getting the car back, we noticed a small issue and they took care of it immediately. Most importantly, JR, Anthony and Allison are honest and genuine people who care and treat customers like family. read more

10-/10 recommend everyone there is super nice and caring took care of my vehicle needs pls don't hesitate to use them for your repairs they are the best! read more

I've been meaning to leave this review for a while so here it is I'll be the first to admit that I know very little about car repairs. Everyone at Selecta auto body was so nice at explaining the entire process for me from start to finish. My car sustained a few scratches from someone trying to squeeze into a parking spot next to mine a few months ago, and I had been dreading the process of getting it repaired. When I called, not only did they fit me in the same day for a evaluation of the damages, but they offered to take the car in for repairs the same day. The whole process took about 2 days and I have no complaints. The final work is flawless! Plus they took care of all the billing read more

Selecta has helped me out numerous times. Today I am getting assistance with putting in a window motor and switch. After an accident that happened when my car was parked 3 years ago I have had ongoing issues and bugs with my 2015 Legacy Subaru. They helped me with my autobody work through insurance and did a fantastic job and even when I had an issue with a broken sensor they took care of it after the fact. They most recently helped me with an install of a new driver side window switch and motor after Subaru refused to take any responsibility with the problem even though it was only 2 months outside of warranty. Thanks Anthony & JR as well as the whole staff! read more

REVIEWER # 120 Alright, Y'all! Its official, Blueberry is DEAD! Yup, you heard me right, my baby is gone (emoji: sad face). She passed away February 2nd, 2018 and it was the hardest decision I had to do this year but I didn't want my baby to suffer anymore. My baby was my ride or die, my soldier, she really took some hard hits (literally) AND...she made it to 120,000 miles! (Told you she was a soldier!) But, I am happy to admit that she was in great hands while at Selecta Auto Body! I honestly cannot say ENOUGH about this shop! I Love, Love, LOVEEEEE Selecta Auto Body-trust me, you will be too once I'm done with this review! (smiles) The staff here are wonderful, everyone from 'da man' Andy, beautiful Emily, sweet Allison, Oh, and sexy Anthony...but wait, JR was easy on the eyes as well (ALL SMILES!)...Umm hum, they deserve more than 5 stars! If I could give them 100 stars, I would! I first came here in December 2017, and from day one this shop had my back. They were so respectful, efficient, and really took their time to make sure that everything was right. Andy and Emily made sure to call me throughout the whole process to let me know how everything was going. Within a week or two, I had my car back and the work was immaculate. It honestly looked like a brand new car. Literally, 4 days later, and BOOM-Another car accident. Now, I know what you're probably thinking. How can a woman named 'Porsche' get into SOOO many accidents, right? Lemme' just tell you, these accidents weren't my fault, luckily! I can't help it that drivers can't keep their eyes off my BUMPER! Next thing you know they're hitting me from the back-those A-holes! I didn't have to worry because I knew I had a good ol' auto shop that would take care of me and that's actually what Selecta Auto Body did. I called Andy the following day after my accident and informed him that my car was damaged-AGAIN. He had a tow truck come pick the car up from my house and VOILA! That was finally off my chest! However, this time, my baby was not fixable. Andy called to break the news to me and did it in such a lovely way. *Andy spoke to the insurance for me; I didn't have to do anything! I love that! Although I left without my baby, I am thankful that this shop helped and supported me throughout the whole process! It's not easy being in a car accident and having to deal with everything on your own, honestly, it's emotionally draining. As a woman, I never felt like they were taking advantage of me or leading me on AT.ALL. They were totally honest through the whole process. These guys really love and value the work that they do, and it shows! I would STRONGLY encourage anyone, particularly women, to get their car done here. It's hard to find people to trust, but these guys are trustworthy and really exceeded my expectations! Thank You, Selecta Auto Body!! *Andy is the MAN! Make sure that you speak to him. He's a businessman and really knows his stuff. If you are unsure of anything or need advice on your car, call and speak to him. He really was such a joy to speak to and I appreciate all of his support through these crazy accidents. He made the process SO much easier. read more

I really appreciated how fast, helpful, professional, and nice this team was with fixing my passenger side mirror (someone decided to damage it when parked outside- oh city life). Would recommend this place to friends for sure! read more

I got into a car accident and Selecta Auto Body was awesome. They were super attentive every step of the way and made everything super easy and non-intimidating to go through. They worked closely with my insurance (State Farm) and even though more work had to be done than their original estimate, everything went smoothly. Communication was great throughout and I would highly recommend them to anyone. It took them about a week to fix everything (which was very fast in my opinion) and were very clear and careful with COVID protocols. read more

I am so happy I went to Selecta Auto Body for my windshield damage. They fixed it quickly and have a really comfortable waiting area. The shop is immaculate with talented workers and state-of-the-art equipment. Hopefully I won't need auto body work in the future, but if i do it will absolutely be Selecta! read more

Great! This place deserves the crazy high rating - its fantastic. The people are so friendly and helpful and kind and informative. There are no pushy antics at all, and you feel like you're valued. Seriously a stand out business. read more

OK - if it were possible, I'd go with 6 stars!!! Seriously, this type of customer service is RARE to find - start to finish - here was scoop.... - Had a small run in with my garage (tight fit) and scraped my front bumper of my car entering - it looked kinda bad at first - especially on a black car. Needed to figure out how to get it fixed (rest of car is pristine) - Was recommended Selecta via Advanced Autowerks (my mechanic - Zach btw - THANK YOU!!) - Called and spoke to Anthony - he suggested I email a few photos in to him, did so. This was on a Friday. We spoke, he suggested I come in and see if we could just polish the marks away - very nice, very thorough explanation and was trying to minimize cost - very much appreciated. We set up an appointment to go in on monday @ 8AM - Arrive Monday - meet with Anthony - he looked at car and said to give him a few minutes (literally) - walked outside to finish a call and no less than 5min later he says to come back in and look - IT WAS ALL GONE - seriously, I was amazed - I was figuring $1K to get this fixed and a day or so, but Anthony just polished it out in under 5min - and at NO CHARGE!! Who does that????? I was speechless - what an amazing way to start a Monday!! Anthony and team there were so helpful and so on the spot that I can't imagine EVER going anywhere else!! There is a reason that Selecta has 5 stars and I just wish I could give them a bonus star - simply stunned and overjoyed with their service read more

JR and his crew at Selecta Autobody do amazing work! The staff is friendly, talented, professional, and did a great job keeping us updated on the progress of the work. Scheduling was easy, and the final repair work was better than anything I could have hoped for. Even though we live in Sacramento, Selecta is the only place we'll bring our cars for any future auto body work. read more

I would given this place more stars if possible. This business is the gold standard of service, quality, and customer service. I have taken my car here twice. The whole team is knowledgeable and friendly. Two specific examples. The first time I needed work, they planned to be done when I was on vacation. One of the team members lived near my house and offered to drop the car in the garage so it would be waiting when we returned. The second time I needed work, there was a sensor that wasn't right. They rectified the problem with no hassle and even washed the car for us (again). To Gene, Allison, and the whole crew I interacted with, thank you. You have a customer for life. read more

First time with Selecta Auto Body and had a great experience. We finally had to replace our car's front bumper, fender, and center grille after a series of less-than-great hill parkings. But Selecta got it fixed up with top notch workmanship, great customer service (timely updates on parts arrival, job start, etc.), and a turnaround that was on time and on estimate (although mostly lucky here there wasn't additional internal damage). The shop itself was also very clean with a well-lit and orderly work floor, and staffed with exceptionally courteous team members. Thanks to Gene, Amber, and Jackie for all their help. Would absolutely return and/or recommend to others. read more

Extremely honest and professional body shop that helped us repair our Mini Cooper. We had asked around for quotes from 10 body shops in South Cal (LA), where we had the accident, and several body shops in SF, Selecta Auto body repair the spoiler of my Mini Cooper and replaced light bulbs for NO COST and in 20 MINS! Also, they maintain a sparkling clean environment in this special period. Check out Selecta before you make the decision to drop your car somewhere else! read more

Wow, this shop is top notch with the most amazing customer service and communication I have experienced in any industry. I got in an accident and the insurance co said I could choose which body shop I went to. I live in the neighborhood and had called the shop 6 months earlier with a question and they gave me some great advise, even though I was not a client, so I decided to choose them to do the repairs on my car post accident. I opted for text updates, and every day they would let me know what was going on with my car. The team is extremely detail oriented and checked in on error lights and even took my car to another shop to get a warning light fixed that couldn't be addressed in their shop. I recommend them whole-heartedly, thank you Allison, Anthony and the rest of the team. read more

I had my first accident, unfortunately. They treated me really well. My car was totaled, had to come and take everything out of the car. They help me bring it to my new car. Hopefully nothing happens with my next car, but I would definitely bring it here! Great service! Especially since I was still in shock from the accident! read more

I was directed to go to Selecta after a collision as it is a Subaru authorized shop. I am so glad it is because the experience was unexpectedly excellent. Allison kept us updated regularly and in detail. Everyone was professional, respectful, and genuinely nice. My car came back to me like new and I couldn't be happier. Superb local business. read more

I'm only commenting on the service and quality of work. My insurance covered most of the cost minus the deductible. Andy and team did an awesome job fixing my bumper. He explained everything, communicated all the details, was very clear on timing, cost and the overall process. The shop is clean and organized, something I value as a guy who loves his car. I was confident they'd take care of my car the way I do. They also work with Hertz. A Hertz agent picked me up from the shop and also dropped me off when my car was ready. Super convenient! If I needed additional body work in the future, I'd likely go back even if it wasn't covered by my insurance. read more

Fair, fast, and professional. They excelled at communications and were exceptional at keeping me up to date. read more

Selecta Auto Body - Back in the saddle again... - Body Shops Near Me - San Francisco, California

Selecta Auto Body did an excellent job on repairing the damage on my car. I I had scraped two of the passenger side doors on the cement in my garage, this was not covered by insurance. They had to remove two doors and the windows to do the repairs. They also did a few light scratches with the left over paint. I got two quotes and the other body shop charged me for 95 hours of work while Selecta charged me for 58 hours of work, I saved 37% on the cost of repairs by using Selecta. My car was finished when they said and it looks beautiful. read more

The team at selecta auto body was awesome! Not only were they super communicative and professional, but they did an amazing job fixing up my car. It looks better than new. I hope not to have another issue in the future, but I'll definitely contact them again if my car needs auto body work. read more

I have been taking my cars to Selecta for years. JR and his people are very professional and friendly. They do great work, quickly, and at a fair price. I wouldn't go anywhere else -- I always trust that l'll get the best work from JR. read more

No one wants to have to deal with body work for their car, but Selecta does a great job! My car was recently hit while parked in SF and of course the person did not leave a note. Given that my car is less than a year old and wanting to maintain as much value as possible, I had no choice but to find a shop to repair the dented/scratched fender. In setting up a time for an estimate, Selecta responded to my inquiry immediately and I was able to go in the next day. Andy was very thorough in discussing the work they needed to do (replacing fender, blending paint, etc) and we set up a time for the next week to bring in my car. When I brought in my car for the appointment, a Hertz employee arrived within a few minutes to take me to get a rental car. It was very convenient to have Selecta coordinate this pickup for me without me needing to do anything! I should also mention they coordinated everything easily with my insurance (State Farm) and I just had to pay the (unfortunate) deductible amount. The work was completed within a week and looks great! There was a small issue with the cleanliness of my vehicle returned to me (white residue inside/outside the car, as well as some grease on the door handle) and I reached out to Andy to let him know for future customers. He immediately called me and I stopped by the shop on my way home to talk to him about the issue. While my initial intention was to just inform him of the situation and I did not expect anything in return, Andy was very apologetic and more than made up for the initial disappointing experience. Amazing customer service and a great reminder that people should reach out to businesses before ever publicly complaining about an issue (as many people forget with Yelp). Selecta definitely cares about their customers! I hope I never need any more autobody work, but will definitely return to Selecta if I do and highly recommend them to others! read more

Had some bodywork that I needed done, and since it was 100% the other driver's fault, I had my choice of body shops. I remember seeing JR and his crew's work on Euge's car quite a few years ago, so I wanted to give them a shot. Made an appointment, brought the car in, and received nothing but pro service. They were super helpful and explicit in what I should expect in the process, and how they would work with they payor's insurance. A few days later, all the work was complete, and I was definitely happy with the result. Often times, even the best body shops require a little push to make sure that all the gaps are perfect, and that the finish on the paint is spot on. If you're eye's trained for it, you can see where work has been done. At Selecta, however, my car looked like it was brand new again. You really can't ask for much else from a body shop. Funnily enough, when I went to pick up the car, JR said "wait, a minute, don't I know you? You were a judge at Euge's chicken contest, right?" I never mentioned anything of the past to JR, but the guy still remembered me from the one time I met him seven years ago. It's then when I realized what makes JR and Selecta so good, he's a guy that understands that his business is more than just "you give me your money and I'll provide you with a service," He's not just out there to profit, but to be a part of and benefit the community. read more

GENEROSITY. I neglected to mention a ZERO labor charge on the replacement of a tail light assembly broken by another errant driver in a completely unrelated incident. Since the rear bumper was off anyway for the primary repair, the couple additional screws were easily accessible. CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. A couple weeks after the fact the super sunny weather highlighted previously unnoticed swirl marks from the final buffing. I called and they brought me in 5 min. before closing and polished them out on the spot. They were under no obligation to do so, but indulged my car-obsessed heart anyway. read more
