    Good before paint
    Eric F.

    They were quick, good communicators, and did a great job. I didn't know I could afford a good paint job. They went above and beyond. They made my car not embarrassing to drive around. It looks to be set for the next 150k miles. I recommended them to all my car corners. Thanks again.

    100% satisfaction from initial conversation through fix done. The result is better than I expected and it takes very short time. The cost is also very reasonable. I highly recommend Initial D Autoshop to everyone. Thank you!

    Before

    I'm very happy with Initial D's work, they gave me a reasonable price (compared with two other quotes I got), they managed to fix (not replace) the bumper and made it look new again in only about three days and cleaned the interior pretty well without asking. Pictures of bumper's before and after attached. It's been a month after the fix and I still don't see any issue. They were friendly and patient too !

    Scraped my car on a pillar and stopped by this shop for a touch-up. They helped me for free and did an amazing job -- you can't even tell anything happened. Super friendly and honest people. Highly recommend! This would for sure be my place to go if I need any auto body work in the future.

    That's my Tesla before and after. Great job done here!

    Thank you Initial D Auto Works for amazing work on my Tesla!! It was a very smooth and friendly process from the beginning to the end. I called after getting rear ended at a stop sign by a teenager on her way to high school on a Friday morning. When I called I was told I can bring my car in on Monday. But, since we all work that wouldn't work out for me. So I was told that I can drop it off Sunday night, which was very very convenient for me. Dropped my key into the lock box and was on my way. They kept close communication with updates and parts and timing of when the car would be ready. My car was ready by Tuesday. I went into the shop to pay in person and after seeing my car, and what a great job they did I couldn't stop thanking them. They were all so friendly and did an amazing job on my car. They also kept the price reasonable. I highly recommend Initial Auto Works!

    It was a Sunday and I initially went to a shop down the street that said they were open on google maps - I was promptly turned away and told to return Monday. Was about to go home, but found this shop down the street and it wasn't even on google maps! Walked in and immediately got excited as a big Initial D fan who has watched ALL the stages multiple times. I seriously love the decor of the place! Honestly, I didn't get multiple quotes but that's because the quote seemed reasonable. And for the price, I'm super happy with the result - I can see from inside the tank that the dent was pulled out most of the way, and that the damage wasn't just filled. They also did a very good job masking the areas that I specified. Overall, I'd recommend this shop given the result and the price!

    Steven and Lok were responsive, honest and kind from the get go. Someone had scratched the side of my car badly while at work (shown in the first pictures). I shopped around at atleast 4 shops and one place that was "Tesla certified" tried to quote me $9k. Steven and Lok were reasonably priced and super fast. Told me the job would take 7-10 days and I ended up picking the car up a few days early. They also took care of everything through insurance and even gave me back my car before my insurance paid them. Will definitely come back to them in the future if needed. I even gave their information to a few of my relatives already. Thanks again initial d!

    See all

    Ok so I never write reviews like ever but this time I had to make an exception…read more I've been driving for 25+ years and trust me I've dealt with plenty of body shops over the years so I kind of know how these things go. But JP Auto Body? A completely different experience! So basically I had a minor collision and someone messed up the rear bumper on my Tesla Model 3. Took it in and Raymond was the guy who helped me out. Honestly from the start he was just really patient and actually took the time to explain everything to me step by step. Like he didn't just say "yeah we'll fix it" and disappear. He kept me updated the whole time and was super easy to communicate with. Now I'll be honest -- it did take a little longer than I expected (Waiting on Tesla OEM parts took the most time). But Raymond was upfront about that and honestly after seeing the final result I totally get why. This man was NOT cutting corners. When I got my car back I literally could not tell anything had ever happened to it. Like 10 out of 10, no joke. If you need body work done especially on a Tesla just go JP Auto Body at Redwood City, CA. Ask for Raymond. You won't regret it. Highly recommend

    I normally don't leave reviews but the owner Victor & his shop really left a lasting impression…read more First time going to CG&E Autobody (the shop at 545 STANDISH ST - SPECIFICALLY) and had an amazing experience. Found the shop randomly on yelp and they were able to accommodate me for a same day walk-in appraisal appointment. The owner Victor was very personable, fast & efficient communicator and helped me through the confusing process of having to use a 3rd party mediator (Turo related accident). I had a ton of questions & concerns and Victor was very patient walking me thru everything and keeping me in the loop step by step. I also really appreciate how transparent they are in their pricing - all body shop labor prices are clearly posted so no surprise fees at the end. Victor and his team did a wonderful job replacing my bumper and will definitely recommend this body shop going forward. If you want the feel of a mom & pop shop that really cares, curates a personable experience that works for your needs & budgets, and takes customer service to the next level, then this is the shop for you!

    TLDR: CG&E gave me the best auto body experience I could've hoped for, and I'm telling everyone I…read moreknow about them. They're kind, knowledgeable, honest, helpful, and do fantastic work. Longer version: I managed to sideswipe my car pretty good on a concrete pillar. I showed it to a friend who used to do body work, and he told me how much it SHOULD cost, even though I'd probably never find someone to do it for that amount. With that understanding, I took my car to CG&E, and Victor gave me the same exact estimate to the very dollar; I couldn't believe it. He was very informative about the work that needed to be done and what my options were. When I left my car with him, he repaired it exactly in the timeframe we discussed, he kept me updated along the way, he didn't charge me a penny more than his estimate, AND he let me borrow a vehicle to use in the meantime. That last part was such a pleasant surprise, and it saved me a lot of extra money and inconvenience on rentals or rideshares. When I picked my car up after the work was finished, not only did it look like new again because of the stellar repair job, but also because they thoroughly cleaned it inside and out before returning it to me. You can tell they take pride in their work and care about their customer experience. They get the highest recommendation from me. Thank you Victor and CG&E!

    I highly recommend Jerry! My front headlight cover was cracked and the assembly was crooked. While…read moreother shops quoted me $300+ to replace the entire unit, Jerry took a look and told me he could simply realign it and fix the housing. He worked on it right then and there in the cold while I waited in the car, and 20 minutes later, it looked brand new. He even went the extra mile to check my tire pressure and fill all four tires when he noticed my dash light was on. Jerry mentioned he recently lost over 100 of his 5-star Google reviews due to a technical issue with an SEO provider, which is a huge blow to a small business. He is honest, skilled, and fair. If I ever need bodywork again, I'm definitely coming back here!

    From start to finish I had a wonderful experience with Ace and the shop owner Jerry. I have a 2024…read moreHyundai Elantra N that was hit on the driver side door and left some gnarly damage and scratches on the car's exterior. I reached out to Jerry around the Thanksgiving holiday and he was prompt and respectful when communicating the probable costs associated with repairing and matching the car's unique paint color. The paint matching was flawless, and the driver side door always looked great upon pick up. What I appreciate most is their great communication and fair pricing. There was a slight delay with getting the car back, but that wasn't unexpected given the holiday timing. I am more than satisfied with the work and will be returning in the near future to get the driver side molding done, as well as another vehicle in my household. If you're looking for a trusted local auto body shop in Redwood City that delivers high-quality auto repair and paint services, I highly recommend Ace In And Out Auto Body Shop, ran by Jerry, the man!
