  • Headlights, grilles and trim broken in the impact

Limited lifetime warranty. Our work comes with a limited lifetime warranty. The exact terms depend on the type of repair, and we explain them for your job before you pick up the car.

Frame straightening

If the impact bent the frame or unibody, cosmetic repair alone is not enough. A vehicle that is out of line can wear tires unevenly, pull to one side, and may not protect you properly in the next accident. We use frame straightening equipment to pull the structure back into line before any body panels go on.
