HEADLINE: The third time I've called upon Chris to work his detailing and ceramic coat artistry…read more... this time on my new 2026 Audi SQ8 Prestige ... Amazing, as usual!!! Just purchased an end-of-year 2026 Audi SQ8 Prestige from Audi of Santa Barbara and the first thing I did was set up an appointment with Chris to get her paint conditioned and ceramic coated. He offered System X's Warranted Ceramic Coat (base coat and top coat) for the paint, all exterior glass with System X's Glass, and my 23" wheels' faces, interior spokes, barrels, and red calipers all around with System X's Wheels. A FULL two day job. Given his loaded backlog, I was able to get the car to him after having Audi of SB delete the OEM brake pads (prodigious brake dust) and have them install DFC 5000 Euro Ceramic brake pads all around. When Chris started on the wheels, he noticed that the barrels in particular "were caked with dust". Thus, my desire to get them coated as well! Paint was clay barred, even though she arrived with only 1200 miles on her, as well as a few paint chips on the hood expertly filled. Picked her up today and she is simply astounding on very level. Paint feels like butter, and looks even better, and has a six year System X warranty. Pictures simply don't do justice to the care and attention Chris paid to this project. Cannot recommend Chris, and his talents, and attention to detail, enough. And I continue to do so with my new six figure toy!!! He's 120 miles away from my home, and I don't hesitate at all to make the trek!

I couldn't believe the perfect paint match on our 21 year old car with 350,000 miles on it! If you need this type of repair done, ceramic coating, or touch up paint for rust spots, I cannot recommend Chris more highly!

I was having trouble reaching an autobody store so I figured I can just try and show up to one…read moreinstead. Unfortunately many of the ones I called weren't answering their phones so I just decided to drive to one until I find the one that can help. On my way I was stopped by David at a light he noticed my front bumper was hanging off and needed some work. I followed him to his store and he gave me a great quote the service only included fixing my bumper but they went out of their way to get the scratches off my car, polish/make my headlights clear, and gave my car a small but nice detail free of charge. They charged a great price not including the extra work that was done . They are a genuine business I was happy to know that my money was gonna be well spent and my car would be taken care of. I'm definitely coming back for a detail and would recommend if you need any work done on your car! Thank you workers of sunshine collision and David!

Look my brand new to me 2025 bmw m2 to get a paint correction and ceramic coat for 3k. Was feeling…read moreconfident that everything would be done right with no issues. After paying and excited to get my car back looking newer than ever I was inspecting the car and noticed quarter sized paint chip on the passenger side and rim rash. I confronted David about it and ofc denied it. After taking it home for the first car wash they missed multiple spots with the ceramic coat. Again confronted David and said that's not possible. After showing a video clearly showing it wasn't ceramic coated. Finally agreed to fix it. After that I got a new part added and wanted it coated and paint corrected as well. I paid $300 for that part and the original missing panels to my surprise issues weren't done as promised. After going back the 3rd time. I dropped it off for the whole day then didn't touch the car at all. Wasted my time. 4th time same thing. Finally after the 5th visit it finally gets done after being pushed off for days up to two weeks. If you care about your car and wanted to get the service and respect you deserve. DO NOT GO HERE. The moment you pay you are no longer a priority

Got rear-ended in my 2018 G63 and, after calling around, a friend referred me to PUR Collision…read moreCenter with Alex. Best decision I made in the whole ordeal. He is a G Wagon specialist. The repair itself is flawless, panel gaps, paint match, everything lines up like it came off the line that way. On a G-Wagon that's not a given; plenty of shops will happily take a swing at one and hand you back something that's almost right. This isn't that. But the part that really made the difference was the insurance side. Dealing with the at-fault carrier is normally a part-time job you didn't apply for, endless calls, lowball estimates, supplements that go nowhere. Alex handled all of it. He knew exactly what to push back on and how to document it, and I basically just got updates instead of headaches. Zero fighting on my end. He also does diminished value reports, which I didn't even know was a thing I should be asking about. A car like this loses real money on paper just from having an accident on the record, and he walked me through recovering that. If you've been hit and nobody's mentioned diminished value to you, ask him about it. Bonus: the man knows the local food scene better than most people who write about it for a living. Ask him where to eat while you're waiting, I got better recommendations there than from any app. Highly recommend. Ask for Alex.

Extremely quick and professional, I had an absolutely wonderful experience here. As someone who…read moredoesn't know much about cars, I was really nervous when I needed a repair because I'm used to being highballed on pricing and services. Alex was amazing and explained what needed to be done, at a super reasonable price compared to other shops nearby. They fixed my cracked grill and bumper no problem within a day of drop off, which amazed me because as a Mini owner i'm always used to being without my car for a week since they always have to order the parts. I will be coming here for literally everything in the future as long as they can make it happen!
