    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!

    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.

    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.

    Fixed dents and paint on front bumper

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    It looks brand new

    5 Stars -- Great customer service, but GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING…read more I recently had my 2011 Toyota Corolla S worked on at PC Auto Body Shop. Overall, I'm giving them 5 stars because of their customer service, willingness to work with me, and effort to make sure I ultimately left satisfied. However, there are definitely some things potential customers should know. My work included front/rear bumper repair & refinish, roof prep & repaint, front grille replacement, and headlight restoration. Vitor and I negotiated the final price to $2,875 including tax and credit card fees. The repair process took longer than expected. My car was initially at the shop July 27-31, but the rear bumper couldn't be completed because some parts hadn't arrived. I picked it up so I could continue driving for Uber, then brought it back August 11. That visit also couldn't be completed, so I dropped it off again at 3 PM and picked it up August 12 at 11 AM. The first July 27-31 delay didn't bother me because that was the original timeframe. The additional August 11-12 visit was more inconvenient because I drive Uber for income, so additional time without my car meant lost earning opportunities. There were also several issues along the way. The front grille I provided fell off the same day I picked up the car, even though I had specifically reminded Vitor before pickup to make sure it was secured because the grille had a history of falling off. There was also a spot on the front bumper that hadn't been secured properly, a loose piece around the inside of the trunk, black marks on the interior sunroof shade, and some hesitation regarding rideshare transportation during the additional visits. However, this is where I give PC Auto Body Shop significant credit. All of these issues were ultimately taken care of. Vitor was willing to listen and work with me whenever I brought something to his attention. There were several times when I had to remind him of something we had previously discussed or agreed upon. Once I showed him our messages, he generally acknowledged that I was right and said he would take care of it. He repeatedly made it clear that he didn't want me to leave unhappy. When the grille fell off, Vitor immediately offered to order a replacement at no additional cost and had his mechanic manager personally handle it. He also addressed the other issues I brought up. They also did some things I genuinely appreciated that weren't necessarily required. They painted the back side of my trunk lid even though it wasn't part of the original service, and they cleaned my carpet and the outside of my tires without me asking. Those extras made me feel like they were trying to take care of the whole car. One thing potential customers should know is that my Corolla is 15 years old, and the shop used screws/fasteners in some areas of the front and rear bumpers to keep them securely attached. If you expect every repair to look exactly like the original factory installation, especially underneath or in hidden areas, you may not like this approach. I'll attach pictures to show what I mean. Personally, I'm okay with it. My priority with a 15-year-old daily driver is that the bumpers stay securely attached and look clean from normal viewing angles. For my car, I'm satisfied with the result. Someone with a newer vehicle or who is extremely particular about factory-original repair methods may feel differently. My biggest recommendation: GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING. Vitor is approachable and easy to talk to, but there were several occasions where I had to remind him about previous agreements. He wasn't defensive when reminded, and he generally honored what we had agreed on, but I learned that it's much better to have every promise, price, included service, warranty, and special arrangement documented rather than relying on verbal conversations. The same applies to transportation. Because of the additional visits, I needed rideshare transportation. The shop initially hesitated to provide it, but after I explained that the additional transportation needs were caused by the repair delays and showed our written agreement, they ultimately provided the rideshare. On the final day, there was another misunderstanding with a coworker about an Uber pickup. I showed the written proof of Vitor's promise, and the issue was resolved. So, would I recommend PC Auto Body Shop? Yes. I'm giving 5 stars not because everything went perfectly--it definitely didn't--but because when problems came up, Vitor was willing to listen, negotiate, correct them, and make sure I ultimately left satisfied. For my 15-year-old Corolla, I'm happy with the final result and appreciate the effort Vitor and his team put into getting everything taken care of.

    (honestly, more than 5 stars!)…read more This is the third time I've brought my car here, and every single experience has been amazing. The team is always incredibly kind, professional, and honest. As a woman, I really value places where I feel respected and not taken advantage of -- unfortunately, that's not always the case everywhere. But here, I've always been treated with fairness, transparency, and genuine care. They take the time to explain everything, never try to upsell unnecessarily, and their prices are always fair and reasonable, which I truly appreciate. This is truly the only place I trust with my car, no questions asked. I recommend them with my eyes closed!

Compared to two other shops I got quotes from, John's quote was the lowest price. He also did a great job of keeping me updated throughout the repair. The final paint job was completely flawless. On a separate note, my car has a 360 degree surround view camera system, and one of the cameras is mounted on the side mirror, which needed to be removed during paint blending and reattached afterwards. This meant that German Auto Body needed to take the car to the dealership (Lexus Stevens Creek) for calibration to correctly line up the image from the reinstalled mirror camera to the whole image captured by the three other cameras. The dealership's calibrations did not correctly line up the final image (I have my doubts if they even ran the calibrations at all, as the image looked identical before and after), but they still charged for the calibrations (gave a typical BS answer that everything was "in spec"). However German Auto Body agreed that the calibrations did nothing and therefore they chose to absorb the cost of the calibrations from the dealer and did not charge me. John and tech Jose were able to work with me to mechanically (manually) adjust the side mirror to line up the 360 view image. I greatly appreciated the efforts that went into resolving this. Base on my experience, I believe that German Auto Body is an honest, customer service oriented, and skilled body shop. Would highly recommend them. This would be my go to shop if I ever needed future auto body repairs.

He originally estimated about 2 weeks (give or take). I was worried that was a long time but he explained the complex work of these repairs and offered to order the parts before I dropped off my car to help speed things up. Long story short , Michael was extremely attentive, polite, and professional with the entire process ! I was told to go here by my dad who also went here before and they did not disappoint. The car looks brand new. In addition my car was so very dirty on the inside (i transport dogs as part of my job) so dog hair was covering all floors /carpet and in between every crack and crevice. They made the entire car look brand new and got all the dirt and hair out. Usually i pay about $200 or more for my car to be washed / cleaned on the interior and exterior. Thank you so much ! Not only did Michael handle everything with my insurance, but he also offered for me to leave my rental car at their place to eliminate one less thing for me to do tonight. I have never had an auto body shop offer for me to leave my rental car there. Lastly, not only did he keep me informed throughout the process - but he went the entire mile and offered to do an additional service for me complimentary ! I had 2 plastic parts stolen off of my car a long time ago but haven't had it fixed as I kept getting quoted a very expensive number - i didn't want to fix it for $800-$1K and then have them stolen again. He said he would just do it as a courtesy since the piece could be popped right in. Thank you again to Michael and the team at AW Collision ! I would highly recommend going here and would trust them with my car again in the future !
