You Be The Judge!
-
The Auto Body Industry is controlled by the insurance companies. An insurance company pays the same
labor rate and paint material price for a vehicle repair, whether or not it is a Chevy Pickup Truck, BMW, Porsche,
Mercedes Benz or Ferrari.
-
In the State of Florida, Auto Body Technicians work their job based on an hourly flat rate. A technician gets the same rate per hour
on every vehicle, no matter what kind it is.
-
All of the other shops pay their technicians based on the number of hours produced per week, regardless of the quality of work.
But, our shop pays its technicians based on producing the quality work for being specialized in the exotic motorcars.
-
A customer with an exotic car expects "nothing less" then quality, and that "is" what our shops main focus is.
-
Most body shops may not be using good products or quality materials to keep their supplies costs down. The
insurance companies won’t pay for it. Our shop uses well known STANDOX, PPG EURO PAINT REFINISH and 3M
prepping material that have a lifetime warranty.
-
STANDOX is used by BMW, Porsche, Audi, Volkswagen, Mercedes Benz and PPG Paint is a OEM paint system for Lamborghini,
Ferrari, Aston Martin, Bentley, Maserati and many more European and Asian Car Manufacturers.
-
A shop recommended by an insurance company works only under that particular insurance company’s guidelines and presets its labor rates and
material prices less than an independent repair shop. This may not be in the best interest of the customer. These shops have a large
overhead and can't afford to use quality products, nor the high pay for good workmanship in today's economy. They have to produce a large
volume to make a profit. We are a small independant auto body and collision repair shop. We serve our community with the primary focus of having the best interest
of our customers and writing estimates within the Florida State Statutes ss-559.916. So we work only within the guidelines of the
Florida State Automotive Repair Act.

Todays Insurance Companies are saying that they would warranty the work on the vehicle, if you take your car to their recommended (DRP) repair shops.
But, keep one thing in mind, it is nothing but "persuasion" to get your vehicle into their shop! This is where your vehicle will be repaired with used or
aftermarket parts, because these shops are in contract with the insurance companies. They are saving the insurance companies millions, by violating consumers
rights and using low quality parts and materials. It is a clear violation of the Florida State Automotive Repair Act. (76 C.J.S. Repair 1170) "The word 'repair'
relates to the preservation of property in its original condition."
-
We will not only repair your vehicle with original manufacture parts, but we will get your vehicle in a pre-accidental condition!
All of the work we do has a lifetime warranty no matter what insurance company you may have.

with low over heads we can afford to deliver high quality work in today's economy!
