I am a legacy customer of Stuart and had him work on my Mercedes 190E over a decade ago. Recently, my car needed some repair and custom work done, so I tried contacting Stuart. To my surprise, I found out that Stuart had retired and sold the business to The Great Auto Body. From the moment Alex answered the phone and throughout all the phone calls and text messages, he assured me that my car would be in good hands. I don't trust just any shop to work on my car, but Alex told me he takes care of Stuart's longtime customers, and that gave me confidence. I decided to give them a shot because I had a really good feeling about him and the shop. When the work was completed, I was extremely happy with the results. They did an excellent job installing the lip and splitter with precision and care. The bumper and fender flare repairs came out great! It honestly looked like no damage had ever happened. I'm really happy with the quality of work and definitely plan to bring my cars back to this shop in the future. If you need work done on your car, I highly recommend Alex, Edgar, and the entire team at The Great Auto Body. You won't be disappointed. read more

Great business, Sincere, will not take advantage of you, Grateful that i took my porsche here! 5 stars all around read more

I had a great experience with this auto body shop and would definitely recommend them. The gentlemen were very professional, responsive, and answered all of my questions quickly. They gave me a quote right away and were able to start working on my car the following week. Their pricing was very reasonable compared to other shops. I was originally quoted $1,400 somewhere else to fix the dent on my body line, but this shop's price was about 40% less. They also took care of a few other minor dings on the passenger side for free, which I really appreciated. Once my car was finished, they texted me a picture of it and even had it cleaned before I picked it up. The work came out great, and the whole process was easy and stress-free. I would definitely come back if I ever need body work done again, and I'd recommend them to anyone looking for an honest and professional auto body shop. read more

Great family business of father and son. They got the car done right on time and it looks amazing. Great experience nothing to complain about. Thanks guys! read more

Top quality work at a good price. They repainted my front bumper, which had scratches and a gouge. Took off bumper, sanded, painted and reinstalled. The paint color is arctic silver metallic and it's a perfect match to the item paint. read more

Shoutout to Alex and his team for doing a perfect job on my car repaint. Before the repair, I was honestly very nervous that the new paint wouldn't match the original finish. After doing some research, I found this auto body shop--and I'm really glad I did. Not only did they offer a fair price, but more importantly, they delivered outstanding results. They explained that there paint were BMW-certified color code, and they truly lived up to that standard. The repaint involved a three-layer process, and everything was completed within just two day. Even the small chips along the bottom of the door were completely gone. I'm extremely satisfied with the quality of the work and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for professional and reliable service. read more

Highly recommend The Great Auto Body shop for your body work and auto repair needs! This is an awesome father-son-run shop that does great body work, with fair, competitive pricing, in addition to being a pleasure to work with! Unfortunately, I hit a deer, which completely smashed my hood. Shockingly, the car still runs, but insurance deemed it a total loss. Didn't really want to get a new car, so I decided to buy it back and fix it up myself. I went on Yelp and shopped around for a few quotes. Some shops don't work on salvaged vehicles. Some didn't want to send me a quote without me towing my car to their shop for a full inspection. The Great Auto Body sent me a preliminary quote that was aligned with what a few other shops were quoting me. However, the difference is that Edgar sent a full pdf breaking down all the different parts, labor, and paint needed for repairs. I really appreciated this full transparency, so I decided to go with them. I only had 5 dark photos to go off of, but that was apparently no problem for Edgar, who was able to accurately quote everything that needed to be fixed to a 99% accuracy. I towed my car to their shop for the full inspection to see if there were any additional repairs or parts that needed to be added, and there ended up needing only 1 extra small part that they needed to order, costing less than $200. *phew* Communication through both email & text was prompt and professional. The car was fixed in less than a week! I picked it up and paid by check, though they do accept credit cards with an added 3% fee. My little Honda looks brand new again! The paint job is great and an exact match. Very, very happy I can extend the life of this reliable and economical car. Mostly cosmetic fixes, but they also fixed the radiator and one headlight. Passed all inspections with flying colors and now she's back on the road. Thank you Edgar & Alex! read more

Edgar was beyond helpful. After 9 years in the Bay area, I finally found my go to auto repair shop!

Shout out to Alex and Edgar probably some of the coolest and quickest guys I had some paint damage on my car from a hit-and-run and was looking for someone who could fix it up in a reasonable amount of time for a reasonable price while scrolling I found this place I gave a call and Alex promptly picked up the phone I shared photos of the damage and Alex gave me a quote and we got dates scheduled to get it fixed. Alex and Edgar got it done and just under 24 hours and it looks better than it did even before it had damage all of my further auto body issues are gonna be with them. No questions asked. Great people. Great atmosphere couldn't ask for better. read more

Excellent service from Edguar! I really appreciated the upfront, itemized estimation before bringing my car in, and the in-person follow-up. They spent a week fixing my car. I noticed a minor issue afterward, but their after-service was top-notch--they inspected it immediately and resolved it on the spot (just a missed button). Hopefully, I stay accident-free and don't need to return, but I recommend them to anyone needing quality bodywork! read more

Had a really great experience at this shop! Our local auto shop recommended them for body work, after our back lift gate got shattered, and I was so very impressed; excellent service, quick communication, and high quality work were just a few of the many amazing qualities of this place. Choose here!!! read more

Edgar repaired the dents and scratches on my passenger-side door and restored the Mach-E emblem, and they did a fantastic job. They also fixed some old minor dents on the driver-side door at no extra charge. I'm very happy with the results. The car looks like new again. read more

I had a loose wheel well liner/plastic panel rubbing against my tire and was worried about driving on the freeway. The team took the time to inspect everything thoroughly, took photos of the damage, and explained what was going on in a clear and professional way. They secured all the loose plastic so the car is safe to drive and gave me honest guidance on next steps while I sort out my insurance claim. No pressure, no upselling, just straightforward, helpful service. Really appreciate how professional and efficient they were. Highly recommend! read more

I can't recommend this place enough! We needed some paint work done on our old BMW and after getting quotes ranging from $950 (seems too cheap and afraid to go to this place) to over $5,600 !!! with wait times of up to a week, we found this gem. Not only was the price super reasonable (in the middle), but they had the car done in just 3 days! Drop it off Wednesday, it's ready Friday. Drop it off Friday, ready by Wednesday. Seriously impressive turnaround and the paint matched perfectly. You'd never know there was ever any sun damage. Edgar was amazing to work with - super helpful, professional and answered all our questions with patience and clarity. The whole experience was smooth, fast and honestly pleasant (how often can you say that about car repairs? :-) If you're looking for fast, high-quality work at a fair price, this is the place. We're so glad we found them - highly, highly recommend! Thank you guys! read more

Great quality with best price! Definitely will recommend friends for car painting and dent repair

I exclusively use Zip In Auto for all my needs on my custom 2011 Crown Victoria Interceptor. I needed a roof repair, side moulding and painting so they recommended The Great Auto Body at 1849 Grant St, Santa Clara, CA 95050. I had the roof repaired 3 times from another paint shop and each time it failed. I decided I needed another shop. When I went to The Great Auto Body, I met several employees who were polite, friendly, and seemed very interested in helping me. I then met Alex, the owner, who was really experienced, gave me a tour of the shop (boy was I impressed) and took the time to explain to me what they would have to do to properly repair the roof. I later received a quote, which I felt was very fair, considering how much work was to be done. In less than a week, I got the car back and it looked spectacular! A month later, I discovered a minor electrical issue with my interior lighting, possibly related to the roof repair. I talked to Alex, made an appointment, brought the car in, and a hour later it was fixed. I was so impressed how Alex himself and another tech, personally worked on it-no charge. This is a 10+ Star Auto Body Shop, but I can only give it 5 Stars. It is very nice to experience an honest, transparent shop were you can talk to the owner directly. They are very busy and have many vehicles being worked on including custom ones. Making an appointment is a must, as the shop is in an industrial area and parking is limited. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this business! read more

One word: fantastic. It's so nice to deal with a Family owned business like this Father and Son Team. Our car repaired in timely manner and the color match was perfect. Edgar and Alex are awesome. read more

It was so great to work with Edgar after getting in an accident where I was hit from the back. Edgar took care of everything with the insurance company and worked with his dad to get my car back to how it was before. It was great to be able to communicate with him with text also. I would definitely work with them again if I ever get in an accident in the future, which I hope I don't, but if I do I would go back. Thanks Edgar and The Great Auto Body! read more

Would give 10 stars if I could. I got in an accident with my brand new car and was devastated. I found The Great Auto Body by sending a mass message on Yelp and due to their responsiveness, pricing and great reviews I decided to proceed with them. Edgar is the absolute best! He was so quick to respond to every single message I asked them. They had my car done SO quickly and when I got my car back they had put my new plates on, washed and vacuumed my car. My car looked SO much better than when I gave it to him. I also met his father Alex who was super kind. I hope I never get in an accident and have to do body work again BUT if I do I will definitely be coming here and I will definitely recommend The Great Auto Body to anyone I know. Honest work from a kind family. read more

The owners were responsive and friendly. Very easy to work with. The quote was very fair and they even popped out a dent that wasn't included in the estimate for no extra cost. The car looks new! read more

Edgar at The Great Auto Body was an absolute pleasure to work with. There was a bend in the front bumper. All other auto body shops quoted around 2K, while Edgar assured me that it will be fixed and painted like new for 450 dollars!! I must admit I was initially skeptical, but after I got my car back, I was just blown away. Thank you Edgar for your great customer service and absolutely phenomenal job on the car! read more

Did about 6-7 months of research on body shops until I got to The Great Autobody! Edgar was extremely knowledgeable and genuinely took care of me with my project. Had a trunk replaced and repainted as well as some body parts on my Subaru BRZ. Needed small things done alongside the paintwork and Edgar ensured everything would be taken care of at a very competitive price. My biggest worry was how well my 3 stage white would match and when I got to the shop I was impressed how seemless everything came out. Very great team at this shop and even let me have a small tour of his shop to see his high class paint booth and spray guns. They only use the best equipment out there and the highest quality paint system. Don't hesitate to come here! read more

I highly recommend The Great Auto Body. Edgar was quick to respond to my inquiry for a quote. He explained everything thoroughly when I went to drop off my car and gave me options of how I'd like to proceed. Their pricing is transparent and listed in the office.

Service is good. But I found my hood was broken when I pick up my car. They didn't contact me for the issue before.

Easy to work with Edgar and Alex. Recommend hitting them up for any body work and paint. Replies fast through yelp and easy to communicate with. The work I had done was an M-Sport front bumper conversion for my BMW. The paint match was perfect and finish was excellent. Was quoted fairly and competitively. read more

I had purchased a new Adro Body kit and wanted to have the bumper painted to color match my BMW, then have them install it and install a front carbon lip as well. They NAILED the black paint with the speckles in the paint, put on the bumper with OEM precision (no gaps) and installed the lip on perfectly! Everyone was extremely nice, very communicative, handled my car with care, and I got the car back better than I left it. The service was better than expected and will continue to bring my needs to these guys. I urge everyone else to do the same. Top notch service, best value in the entire state. read more

Alex and his team really delivered! I brought my 2017 Tacoma in for a paint job. The roof had deteriorated over the years and needed fixing. Alex did an amazing job restoring it to factory appearance with perfectly blended colors. I had a budget and they kept within that budget. Professional and knowledgeable, you can't beat them! They get my highest recommendation! read more

When I started my search for a simple bumper replacement I reached out to many different auto shops, some of which quoted me nearly double what the Great auto body shop quoted and needed a longer turn around time. My experience at the Great auto shop was nothing less than 5 stars, as I had the pleasure to work with Edgar and Alex. Edgar, helped me get a quick estimate thru email and mentioned to bring my car in for a better estimate. When I went to the shop, Alex was extremely helpful, he walked me thru all the steps and showed me other cars he was working on which helped me establish some trust. After they collected my payment they ordered the parts and scheduled a time for me to drop off my car within 1-2 days. Nevertheless I was able to turn my car in the following week and get it back the same day without needing a rental at the best price. I really appreciated the agility they had in helping me with my situation and I would definitely recommend them again! read more

Fantastic! I've taken my Taycan to Alex twice. Once to have body work and once to have the rear bumper painted to repair scratches. These guys are pros. Both times Great Auto Body had my car on the schedule the day I called. Both times the work was complete when promised or earlier. Both times the car looked like new. Both times the cost equaled the estimate. I highly recommend The Great Auto Body. read more

I went with The Great Auto Paint when choosing to repair my wife's Prius fender. Edgar was quick to respond to my request for a quote and was responsive via text. He ordered the parts and I went in to the shop the following week. He was able to work fast and replace the fender with the official part and got the exact same paint. You wouldn't know that part of the car was replaced because of how good of a job he did. I highly recommend this business and would gladly go here again! read more

I highly recommend The Great Auto Paint for your auto body work needs. They were very responsive throughout the process and the body work was done very well. I'm very happy with the results, the car looks good as new! Price is fair too. I first submitted a request through Yelp, and Edgar reached out and was able to provide a rough estimate through photos. Then I visited in person and got the actual quote. The price was a little lower than another body shop that I got a quote from. Because of all the positive reviews, I decided to get the work done here. My car had 2 doors that needed to be fixed + repainted from a large dent on the side, and I also got some touch up paint on my bumper. I dropped off the car Monday morning and it was ready on Friday. Overall really happy with the quality of the job. The process was smooth with Edgar/Alex's responsiveness and expertise. read more
