Mike is a wonderful person. The ease of taking my car here and leaving it without feeling stressed. In and out in less than an hour. He was super helpful, friendly, gave us a rough time frame but of course we got our car back way sooner than anticipated. Super satisfied with how the car came back. read more

I have a full custom lowrider with patterns that needed some paint discrepancies repaired. This is not a job for just any shop, but I trusted Mike D and his guys, and they did not disappoint. The repairs were expertly done to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Davy Autobody for their workmanship and their customer service. Mike D is a super cool person, and the staff are wonderful. read more

I read great reviews about this place and I am puzzled that people were actually able to get a call back from Davey Autobody. I drove over on a Monday and the shop was open, but there was a note on the door saying the office staff works offsite on that day. That's fine. I called the number on the door and didnt' get a response. I called the next day and didn't get a call back. Four days later still no call. In the meantime I found a different shop - based on Yelp reviews - and immediately got a call back from them and the service from this alternative place has been amazing. I will never call this place again. read more

Such great service! I totaled my Lexus but it still ran fine, so these guys were able to locate me a cheap hood and get my frame aligned and put my headlights back where they should be. Quick turn around on getting the car back and super affordable prices. Quality work for sure - thank you! read more

On April 13th, stopped by for a quote because they were recommended by a nearby auto repair shop. The person that gave quotes, the owner Mike Davey, wasn't there and I was given his business card and I left. I called and left a message for Mike to let him know I need a quote and give me a time to stop by again. He didn't return my call. Since I live nearby, I stopped by the following day. Again, Mike wasn't there so I left. The following day, April 15th, I came by and finally Mike was there. He gave me a fair quote, said I could drop the car off anytime 4/26, and he'd have it complete by 4/28. Today is April 26th, I called at 9:30am to let him know I'm on my way and confirm everything - no answer. At 9:45am I pull up to the shop, and he's still not there. I call him after I left to let him know I came by, and to call me back when it's a good time to drop my car off. It's nearly been 4 hours, and Mike has not called me back. i rearranged my day to make this happen and so he could have my car these 3 days. Its completely unprofessional and rude to not call someone back. Since I left their parking lot, I've already received a quote and dropped off my car for repairs from a nearby shop with great reviews. Plus, they beat Davey's price, and I've decided to give my business to them instead of Davey Automotive. If I can even get a return call so that I can become their customer, Can you imagine what would happen if there were issues with their work and I needed a warranty repair? Total Red flags with this company. I dont know why I bothered to chase them down for a quote to begin with. I think God has better plans for me, my car and my business. read more

This was my first time having our car fixed at Davey. Mike exceeded all of our expectations. The price was right, the service was excellent, the repairs were done on time, and the work was flawless. read more

Took all the cars info including vin number and never gave me a quote to fix my sons car. I tried calling back multiple times but they recognized my phone number and ignored my calls day after day...week after week. Guess they don't want to work. Photos look like they did good jobs also. Disappointed. read more

I was recommended this shop from a good friend of mine after someone had side swiped my car. After getting quotes from other autobody shops in SD, Davey's beat the prices by a long shot. Not only was the work performed cheaper, but the quality of work was legit. I'll definitely be back. read more

poor quality, tried to contact them, never returned calls. so many flaws in the paint, I think they painted it on the street. Lots of spots not covered. Totally dis-satisfied. read more

This shop obviously does quality work based on their longevity at location. You can clearly see by the caliber of lowriders , supercars , and luxury high end vehicles that they know what they are doing as far as the actual work. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS HORRIBLE THOUGH!! .....I tried to schedule my vehicle over the course of two weeks. After being handed the owners card 3 times , several voicemails,leaving info at shop, and talking to the owner Mike once, I could still not get a drop off date or return call. The office does not exist for customer walk in. A couple of times stopping by and there was a lady at a desk with her back turned and the office locked. I finally gave up!! I guess they only acknowledge people they know and not new customers. read more

Thanks to Davey Autobody for the great job on my 1998 Toyota Land Cruiser. I damaged the front end in big bear and I thought for sure I wouldn't get it back to the way it was. I took it into Davey Autobody for a private consultation and Mike said no worries, we will get it back to normal in no time. Sure if enough couple of days later it was back to normal and even better. Thanks again to the whole crew at the shop! Highly Recommended! (See pictures below) read more

Had an amazing experience with Mike & Davey Autobody. Took my car here after a rear end accident and the "preferred" bodyshop quoted me 3 months before they could get parts. Mike got my car fixed up in a couple of weeks and went above and beyond on the fixes. Highly recommend coming here! read more

Everyone is nervous about collision repair. It's a craft and not everyone is equally good at it. Davey was recommended to me by a trusted mechanic. We've now had two experiences at Davey and both very positive. The work appears flawless and the color matching was straight factory paint so it was perfect. Mike is a guy who loves his craft. The charges are reasonable and the delivery was on time. No wonder he has loyal customers. I would highly recommend Davey. read more

My car was involved in a fender bender. I asked for recommendations and Davey Autobody was mentioned by a couple different sources, so I decided to check him out. My first visit resulted in the estimator not being available. I drove to other Autobody shops for estimates and ultimately was disappointed in the fees they wanted to charge. I waited a few days and decided to stop by Davey again and boy am I glad I did! Not only was this the best possible estimate for services but the work was done in 48 hours!! i highly recommend checking out Davey Autobody if you ever find yourself in need of auto body work. My 2018 Honda Accord is back to being just like new. read more

Davey Autobody - After/Before - Body Shops Near Me - La Mesa, California

Took my BMW to mike and his crew and can not express enough how good mike and his team are. Not anybody can do quality paint work, knowing mike and his crew specialize in low riders, I knew I was in good hands. After the repairs I could not tell call has been repainted as davey was able to blend perfectly. You really pay for what you get and some times paying a cheaper price will not always get you the best. I highly recommend davey and will never go to another body shop again, as I myself love cars. read more

Davey Autobody - M3 front end conversion. Done by davey autobody. - Body Shops Near Me - La Mesa, California

I bought a decent car for my son in law and very next day he rear ended someone! I reached out to a friend and was referred here, to tow car to. The Park Ave car was probably the least expensive car there, but Mike was very caring, attentive to me, and very helpful with car and honestly did more than most and went out of his way to get me the car quickly and ensured car was in good running condition.... not really part of his job but he did anyways. Thank you for your professionalism and generosity in helping with the engine. I would recommend this place to anyone in need of body work! Car looks brand new! Thank you! read more

I recently had the misfortune of getting into an accident with my classic muscle car. This is a very rare, nearly perfect, very valuable vehicle. Mike and his staff were absolutely fantastic and did a great job, fixing parts that I didn't think could be fixed. Very professional, and they went above and beyond to return my car to it's original condition. Really - I can't say enough, Mike and his crew are the best. read more

They do awesome work on all males and models !!! Turnaround time is very efficient , and his staff is polite and very helpful.

I always take my car to Davey's and he exceeds my expectations every time. Great work in a short time and goes above and beyond, grateful for his team. read more

I brought my 89 Land Cruiser in for rust repair. The process was easy. I brought my truck in, Mike looked it over and gave a very fair estimate. Made an appointment to bring it in for the repair. I'm 110% satisfied with the work done on the truck. Great customer service and his team does excellent work. read more

Davey auto body exceeded expectations. In the world of vehicle repair and auto shops in general I don't have much faith or trust due to the fact that so many have attempted to rip me off in the past - with that said, here's why Davey is fantastic My wife and I took our Ford vehicles to Davey to get some significant scratches out of one vehicle, and to have the bumpers and fenders re clipped on the other. I had priced out the scratches at other shops and although other places were honest about the details of the work that would have to be done, was never satisfied with the pricing from other places. When we took the vehicles to Davey, we spoke to Mike who worked out a deal where we'd be able to pay to have the work done to fix the scratches (which were large scrapes basically caused from being side-swiped) at a much cheaper price than I had previously found, but also included fixing the bumpers and fenders on the other vehicle. We also inquired about getting other work done, but Mike explained fully that we didn't need the work and gave us a cost effective alternative. Essentially, they helped us save money and turned away business because they actually looked out for their customers. Mike really put the effort in to make sure that we were happy with the work and when I picked up the vehicle they perfectly matched the side of the car to the paint job, and had to replace brackets to keep the bumpers and fenders on and had done so with no hassle to us. I will say this is kind of the standard that should be followed in all service industries but especially in the auto repair industry. The work was phenomenal, timely, and well priced, plus Mike had a lot of great references for other issues we had with our vehicles. My wife and I give them our highest recommendation for not only the quality of work, but the service that they provided to ensure we were satisfied. read more

I just got my '91 F350 back from Mike. He fixed a bunch bad spots on the paint and had my grill guard powder coated. It now looks as close to a new '91 as it's possible to get. Thanks Mike! read more

So far I've taken two cars to Davey, my BMW and Honda Minivan, and they have both been painted expertly at a reasonable price. I am thrilled with the quality and customer service that Mike and his team provided. read more

My experience at Davey Autobody was excellent from beginning to end. Mike was very courteous and friendly. I came to Mike because my car was over sprayed from a mishap that happened with a commercial building next to my work. The car was covered from top to bottom, from to back in overspray. He was very honest with the estimate and extremely reasonable, even though the buildings insurances was paying for damages. The car was given to me in the promised amount of time completely detailed. The car honestly looked brand new! Overall I wouldn't hesitate a second to recommend this shop to family in friends in need of any auto body work. This shop does amazing work. read more

Mike was very helpful and helped me through the whole process. They did a great paint job. I highly recommend this Autobody shop.

Mike and his wife own and operate there shop with that old school mentality the way it should be done. There always smiling and make sure you know they truly care. When I dropped my car off they made everything easy. Mike even stopped what he was doing and offered to give me a ride home when I was waiting for my ride out front. They went to bat for me with my Insurance company and got all my car parts replaced with original equipment parts and the Best part of all they did a phenomenal job on the paint and body work. I truly couldn't be any happier with the outcome and there quick turnaround time. You guys Rock!! And I'm so happy the insurance company's don't get to choose where we take our cars. read more

They did an awesome job! I'm really happy I brought my 4runner here to be fixed because someone hit my bumper. I'll recommend them to everyone who needs body work done! read more

Mike Davey Auto Body was one of the two autobody shops suggested to me by my insurance company following an accident with my '72 Chevelle. I chose Davey Autobody because of the superior Yelp ratings they had over the other company. Mike and his team were wonderful to deal with, and helped me out by working directly with my insurance company to fix the damage caused by the accident. When I went out to pickup the car afterwards, I was amazed by the beautiful job they did, especially on the front fender which looked brand new. I actually had three complements on the car before I arrived home, They washed and waxed it after completing the repairs. I couldn't have been happier! ````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` read more

i took my 2012 Golf to Davey in 2015. Over several months, I returned it numerous times for corrections and do-overs. Even when they had lists of specific items to address, things would be left undone, or done poorly. The first time it was supposedly ready, they hadn't done the alignment, which had been promised, and which was critical. They replaced a white door with a used red one, and initially didn't cover the red paint on the inside edge. In addition, the interior door panel had damage. These are just a couple of examples. After several months of back and forth, there were still many paint flaws. Mike is as nice a guy as there is. He worked with me the best he could. He used OEM parts even when the insurance only paid for after-market. I have no doubt he lost money on my car. The experience was stressful and frustrating for me, and probably for him. After so many attempts, I didn't believe his shop was capable of making the car right. I had decided to sell it, and felt the sub-par work would affect the price. I sat on it for a while, and then the VW diesel scandal broke. So I waited, and eventually took the buy-back. read more

Wow! Lindy's Auto Upholstery referred me to Davey for a new paint job. Lindy's is another great shop but they focus on upholstery.) I have a 2006 Toyota Land Cruiser and it was so dingy. The clearcoat had peeled off, there were cracks in the paint on the bumper, and fingerprints all over the place that I could not get out. I had been shopping around pricing for a new paint job but the places I had considered were either too expensive, or got terrible reviews. When Lindy's referred me to Davey, I looked them up immediately. There's a reason why they have five star reviews across the board. My car was worked on quickly and delivered before the date they had quoted. The people are absolutely incredible and take a lot of pride in what they do, and they added a little bit of extra work into other areas. The cost was definitely reasonable, and what I really appreciated is that they quoted me based on what they thought I needed, and not what I thought I needed. In essence, they saved me a ton of money. My car looks brand new. I am so happy. read more

Super satisfied with the work done on my Toyota. Not only did he do an awesome job on the affected areas but he completed the job in under 5 days! Every employee I spoke to was courteous and very helpful. Will recommend this shop to everyone! read more
