Kim's auto body is one of high professionalism and character. I was driving down the I/280 and halfway to work, I noticed my front aero panel making noice flapping around. The screw had come loose and hit the ground, causing it to sag and there was potential for more damage. I had to emergency stop by Kim's auto body in Cupertino and the kind receptionist lady was able to help me secure a diagnosis in 15 minutes. Another lady was able to help me remove the panel as a temporary measure until I was able to get it replaced. I had already scheduled with Tesla the next day and needed it quick and was unable to do my replacement with Kim's. They didn't even charge me for the removal of the front panel on a last minute notice and I had offered to pay for their time. It was a quick panel removal and she said don't worry about it. I highly recommend their services due to the absolute kindness they showed me. 5/5 experience and I will be recommending them to all family and friends in the area. read more

If I could give more than a 5 star review, I would. I took my Toyota GR86 to Kim's Auto Body after getting into a hit and run. There was damage done on my drivers side and door was jammed shut from the collision. I picked up my car today after it being in the shop for almost exactly a week, and I was so impressed by the quality of work. Ryan explained what internal and external damages they found and what repairs they did, and was even more pleased to find out that they even cleaned and detailed the interior of my car. It was like picking it up brand new from the dealership. My insurance covered everything minus the $500 deductible I paid upon pick-up. I definitely recommend! read more

James Kim at Kim's Auto body in Cupertino deserves the best review I could ever write. My Prius front end was damaged in an accident. (My fault). It didn't look bad, so I signed a waiver with my insurance company to not have it repaired, then my insurance company dropped me. The damage was worse than I thought. The "check engine" icon stayed on. I took my car to Kim's Auto Body, and I was going to pay $3500 to fix it, but James said "Let me try to get your insurance agent to cover it" I laughed and said "they dropped me." Bottom line: James persuaded my my ex carrier to cover the repairs. All I had to pay was $500 deductible. James Kim saved me $3000. and my car looks like new. I was astounded. Nobody in today's business world goes way above their duty to satisfy the customer anymore like James Kim did.I give Kim's Auto Body 5++++ stars out of 5. Incredible service! Thank you. read more

Had a fantastic experience getting my car fixed up here after a minor accident. James and his staff are so friendly and professional, and the facility is clean and welcoming. They do incredibly thorough and high quality work to get your vehicle looking and working like new again. After filling out an online form, they called a day or two later about setting up the appointment and were communicative with updates. They dealt with everything related to insurance, which I am so grateful for - they really made it as easy for me as I could possibly imagine. Getting and returning a loaner vehicle from their Enterprise partner was also seamless. Whether your vehicle is somewhat of a beater like mine is or you have something high end, I highly recommend coming here for collision repairs (especially if you're not at fault)! read more

Service was amazing. I was rear ended on the highway a few months ago and needed to go through insurance to get the fixes in. James was so professional and handled everything on his end - making sure that the experience for me was swift and easy. Would highly highly highly recommend! read more

Outstanding Service - Highly Recommend! I was referred to Kim's Auto Body by a trusted friend after my wife's car was badly damaged in a hit-and-run. I had Geico as my insurance, and while they gave me an initial estimate, it felt like they were cutting corners--missing damages and not using OEM parts. I'm so glad I went to Kim's instead. From the moment I booked an appointment, the process was smooth. The front desk was welcoming, and within minutes I was working with James, who was professional, patient, and detail-oriented. He immediately pointed out exterior damages I had missed and later identified hidden internal issues that Geico never would have caught. That alone gave me huge peace of mind--knowing the car would be fully and properly repaired. They ordered the necessary parts quickly, kept me updated, and had the car ready faster than I expected. When I picked it up, they encouraged me to test drive it, even fixing the steering wheel alignment on the spot. James and the team kept checking in to make sure I was 100% satisfied before leaving. The whole experience--from start to finish--was seamless, professional, and reassuring. My wife's car drives like new again, and I couldn't be more grateful for their thoroughness and customer care. If you're looking for a trustworthy, detail-focused, and customer-first body shop, Kim's Auto Body is the place to go. I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation. read more

Kim's auto body replaced my go to House of Miracles in Cupertino. I am so happy they took the new location. There was a small issue that any place else probably would have made a huge issue. The repair was incredible since couldn't tell anything happened. Kim's is very honest, quick and reasonable. They are so nice while you are waiting to hear what the verdict is on car body repair. I hope my car doesn't need much attention in the future but if so, Kim's for me! read more

Ryan and the team had our car fixed extremely well and the paint was fantastic! His communication during the whole process was very professional and he provided updates very quickly. We'd definitely recommend Kim's Auto Body to anyone who wants their car fixed perfectly! read more

Possibly the best customer service of any establishment I've ever experienced. Front drivers side of 2019 suburban ripped open by a semi. Transparent about what parts insurance was willing to pay for (used vs aftermarket vs OEM). Upon my request, they quoted prices for going with OEM upgrades. Speedy. Minor issues after completion were made perfect. Detailed inside and out. Came back far better than pre-accident. I cannot overstate the level of service. read more

I had been wanting to write a review about my Volvo S90 repair experience for a long time, but a family funeral kept me postponing it. This accident involved my young nephew shortly after he received his first driver's license. Although the other party was 100% fully at fault, their dishonesty made the insurance approval process difficult and stressful. Mr. James Kim and his team went above and beyond. Not only was my car repaired perfectly, but Mr. Kim also guided us through the entire process. From their professional workmanship and reasonable pricing to thoughtful progress updates and well-organized arrangements, Kim's Auto Body didn't just make the repair process a little less painful--they made a painful accident feel completely stress-free. We dropped off a badly damaged car and were soon given back a perfectly repaired, shining vehicle that looked brand new. From that moment on, I knew I would be worry-free when it comes to any future car repairs. I couldn't be more appreciative of their professionalism and outstanding service. read more

Every contact I had with them was pleasant. They gave me a same day bid and I was able to take my car in the day after I made a decision. The work was first rate. My 2014 Camry looks like new. The paint matched perfectly. You cannot tell the car was damaged. Not only did they repair the body perfectly, but the interior was cleaned like new. I needed a slight adjust of a molding afterwards and it was drive in. Took less than 30 minutes. Highly recommended. It was insurance work paid for by the other driver through State Farm. Seamless for me.d read more

If you're reading reviews trying to figure out where to take your car after an accident, stop scrolling and call Kim's Auto Body. I've been going to them for over 10 years for all of my auto body needs, and they've never let me down. My whole family trusts them with their cars too. The level of care, consistency, and attention to detail they bring to every job is just unmatched. Most recently, I brought in my 2017 GLE after the door got dented and the paint was scuffed off. This time I worked mainly with James, who was fantastic from start to finish. Super professional, always responsive, and clearly takes pride in making sure everything is done right. I've also worked with his partner Charles in the past, and he's just as meticulous and reliable. Together, they're an unbeatable team. James kept me in the loop the whole time with regular updates and even handled communication with the insurance company when adjustments were needed, which was a huge relief. He also suggested blending the paint on the adjacent panels to ensure a seamless finish, and it was absolutely the right call. The repaired area looks flawless and the body lines are back to their original condition. I got the car back in just under a week and a half, which was quicker than I expected considering the quality of the work. Every step of the process was smooth, transparent, and hassle-free. If you're looking for a shop that does top-notch work, communicates clearly, and genuinely cares about their customers, Kim's Auto Body is it. Huge thanks to James and Charles for always taking such great care of us. read more

James Kim is the owner of Kim's autobody. I have never met an owner that professional, fair, and efficient. His shop and crew fixed several of my cars and the results were perfect, and it took less than the standard time to repair. I recommend Kim's autobody to anyone who has a car accident, he is the best in the biz. read more

There is no other body shop that I have used for years for my Mercedes. James and the staff at Kims Auto Body is 'Bar None' the BEST auto body shop for all repairs for your vehicle. They are the best to accommodate any auto body repair you need, big or small. Always friendly, honest and kind to make sure that your vehicle is repaired beyond your expectations. They professionally deal with all insurance companies on your behalf. I would, nor will I ever take my car anywhere else for repairs! read more

Five stars for Charles and the team! I brought my GLC 300 in for dent and mirror repairs. The shop is professional and systematic. Charles is a true pro--honest, helpful, and fair. He went the extra mile to fix things he didn't even have to, and the results are perfect. I've finally found a mechanic I can trust. If you're looking for quality work at a fair price, this is the place! read more

1000% recommend Kim's Auto Body (KAB)! I went here many years ago and recalled the top notch service I had received. That's when I decided to repay them a visit again. They truly went above and beyond to provide white glove service from start to finish. I had actually gotten quotes from other auto body shops but was honestly surprised when I was told that I would essentially work as an insurance adjustor to even get my car worked on. That made no sense to me at all as the party who was not at fault. This was enough for me to walk away and I am so glad that I did. Not only did KAB help with getting the proper car rental, they even were gracious enough to help return it for me when my car was ready for pickup. And my whip was looking better than before, both inside and outside. It was a great feeling to be reunited with my car looking all fresh and in pristine condition too lol. A+ for the awesome customer service from Lupe, Eric, and Charles! I am a satisfied customer that would happily recommend KAB to anyone looking to get their car repaired. read more

I have never gone to a body shop before, but I'm glad I chose Kim's Auto because Eric and his team made my experience SO easy and painless. They are so professional, communicate well, and work quick. I knew there'd be at least some sort of wait given how much business they get, but Eric was able to fit me in before I had to leave for a trip and he had my car ready to be picked up right when I got back! I had quite the collections of scratches and dents in both front and rear bumpers but now I honestly can't tell where they used to be. They went the extra mile and cleaned my car both inside and out. She's looking really nice now! I would HIGHLY recommend coming here. Hopefully I won't ever need to come back, but if I do.. this will be the spot. read more

I was referred here by a local shop to replace my bumper. Lupe made everything painless. She was responsive and was able to get me an appointment within the week. The car was ready at the time estimated. Would recommend! read more

100% recommend this place! The bumper of my car popped out a bit. I went to a body shop but was not able to schedule an appointment. After that, I found Kim's Auto Body and had a phone call with James. He asked me to bring the car to the shop for the inspection and repair the following week. They helped me realign the bumper perfectly with the rear fender in around 10 minutes. I was so surprised that they did not charge me for the labor cost, which can be at least $50 in other body shops. read more

I recently brought my Tesla Model X to Kim's Auto Body for a front windshield replacement, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the process was smooth, professional, and surprisingly quick. Booking the appointment was easy, and the staff was knowledgeable about working with Teslas--something that gave me peace of mind right away. They handled communication with my insurance company, which was a huge help. They clearly know what they're doing with high-end, tech-heavy vehicles. If you've got a Tesla--or any car, really--and need body work or glass repair, I highly recommend Kim's Auto Body. Professional, fast, and top-quality service. read more

Lupe and the team were nothing short of amazing! I was rear ended back in August and brought my car here for the repair. Fast forward to present day, I was rear ended again. I had my car towed to Kim's Auto Body because they did such a great job last time. I really like how they work directly with my insurance so I don't have to worry about a thing. Unfortunately, insurance determined that my car was totaled. When I came by to pick up the items in my car, Lupe and the team were super knowledgeable in answering the questions I had. They showed me the damage and explained why it wasn't repairable. 10/10 recommend! read more

Very professional and very thorough. My car was hit-n-run in the parking lot. Front bumper has moderaly scrapped up, but they made it look brand new. Initially they has some trouble color matching the paint because of the PPF. So instead of doing whatever they wanted, they called me and we discussed about the different options to do. Communication is great, they are very responsive and keep you updated on your repair. After they're done with the repair, they even nicely detail the car for you! I would come back and recommend to others as well. read more

I've been going here for ... 10+ years and have taken my Audi s4, Audi q5, Benz gle, and now Tesla s. Every time resulted in a very happy customer (me and my wife). I've even referred my engineers and friends/colleagues who also raved about the following; - quality of work - time to completion - promptness / great communication - overall feeling that the service was excellent -- I will continue to go to Kim's Autobody. Lupe, Charles, and James are standout people. Highly recommend read more

Amazing service from start to finish! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, providing clear and helpful answers to all my questions and concerns. Simply a 5-star experience--highly recommended! read more

Everybody at Kim's Auto Body was absolutely wonderful. Eric was the person who helped me with my car, and I really appreciated the time and care he puts into his work. The worked completed was perfect, it looked like factory new. I had a lot of issues with the insurance company being very unhelpful, but Eric went beyond by helping me understand the process and tips on how to talk to/handle the insurance issues. Also, Eric kept me informed during the whole process and even handled the rental car process. They also rushed to finish before their holiday shutdown to get me back into my car! On top of the work they did, they cleaned my vehicle and touched up some small defects which surprised me. It was the best my vehicle looked since I bought it. Could not recommend Kim's more! read more

I highly recommend this place! They were courteous, responsive, and responsible. Eric was able to source a replacement driver side mirror from the east coast for my Toyota Sienna at a reasonable price (including shipping and installation). It was a difficult part to find as it was back ordered nationwide. read more

Nice service! Lupe and the team were amazing! I was rear ended back in August and brought my car here for the repair. Fast and responsive. Highly recommend read more

TL;DR unrivaled craftsmanship and customer service. 5/5 would recommend coming here! Wow, words can not explain the quality and service I have received from Kim's Auto Body. My Mercedes looks better than it did when I bought it at the dealer!! Customer service is king in any industry. That's why Amazon and Apple are the behemoths they are... I can tell you Kim's Auto Body is on par with the two!! I'd even say Kim's auto body has better customer service since you get to interact with the same people and build a bond!! If you read my very first review, you can see James and Team were super kind and professional to me, and I wasn't even a customer at that time! As you can see that left an impactful impression on me that made me return many years later. James is super transparent and he puts the customer first. He does not try to upsell or milk anything from you or the insurance. I was burned by a previous shop who was an acquaintance of my close friend. They cut corners and were not very responsive. I had to put in a lot of work to contact insurance on their behalf. I had none of these issues at Kim's auto body. BTS said it best... it was "smooth like butter!" Once James had possession of my car, he did everything from A to Z without any assistance from myself. James even took the liberty of correcting the mishap from the other shop because it wasn't up to his standards. Thank you so much!! James updated me on my car with progress and pictures periodically. Not once did I feel like I was left in the dark. Honestly this was one of my favorite things about the shop. The quality is 1000% there. Why do you think they're so busy and booked? People come back when they're well taken care of and get quality service. Do yourself a favor and always go here!! I know I will! I'm glad to have found my "go to" shop and even happier to have made a new life long friend. Stay tuned for some before and after pictures. read more

Reached out to Kim's Auto Body after our accident to see how soon they could take in our Lexus they was rear ended a few weekends ago. Jason reached out after I sent over a generic estimate I received from my insurance. They ended up doing a detail inspection and found more damage underneath the rear bumper. He ordered original parts from Lexus, collected the check we got from insurance and billed them the rest. After a couple of days we got our car back and the was fully detailed. These guys are super professional and quick at what they do! read more

I've never had to work with a body shop before, and I was not looking forward to it. I couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised!

I'm just a girl with absolutely zero experience in anything car repair/maintenance related. I came in with a busted bumper from a car accident. My boyfriend found Kim's Auto Body and booked an inspection for me. Eric Ng was assigned to my case, and to say he did a great job is the least I could do. He did an amazing job, a terrific job. The repairs came out great, but the customer service is what's driving me to write this review. Everyone was so kind and nonjudgmental--which is an issue I usually have walking into these situations with no idea what's going on. He really sought out what was best for me and my case and effectively communicated to me throughout the progress of my repairs. I really felt taken care of here. Thank you to Eric & James! read more

Kim's Auto Body did a great job on the repair of my Tesla Model 3 after an SUV backed into it in a parking lot, damaging the bumper and denting the trunk lid. I'm very pleased with the experience and the outcome: Kim's operation is professional, clean, on time, communicative, honest, and their work is stellar. I was a little apprehensive when selecting a shop as my car's bumper has sensors that have been removed from newer builds + color matching sparkly white paint isn't as easy as you'd guess it would be + waiting for Tesla parts is notoriously a long process. Kim's is on Tesla's short list of approved shops, which was comforting but I was still expecting a very long wait. To my surprise, Kim's was able to source the parts needed in less than 2 weeks--including the correct bumper cover that accommodates the sensors. As my car was drivable after the accident, Kim's had me keep it until the parts came in, then texted me with several appointment options to bring the car in. Lupe the service advisor kept me looped in regarding some minor additional work they discovered was needed beyond my insurer's drive-by inspection and worked directly with my insurer to adjust the estimate. Because I have a second car, I declined an offer of a rental while my car was in their shop so she very generously gave me a voucher which covered my Uber ride home after I dropped off my car. Most of the communication between myself and Lupe was via texts, they also email PDFs all paperwork to keep for your records. Kim's waiting room is tidy and comfortable with complimentary fresh cookies and drinks but because they are so on time with their appointments, I spent just a minute in there. Bumper replacement is perfect, the paint is a perfect match, the trunk lid looks brand new and my car was given back sparkling clean inside and out. My car actually looks better than it did when it came out of the factory because Kim's also fixed the tilted dual motor emblem that has subtly bugged me over the past 5 years of ownership. Highly recommend this shop especially if you have a Tesla! Special shout out to Lupe: you are amazing! read more

The customer service is unbelievable amazing . Made me wanna cry . They helped me through the whole claim process with both insurance companies . James and Alicia have so much patience with me , walked me through the whole process, helped me contact rental car company and both Insurance companies. James and Alicia think on behalf of their customers instead of themselves. They suggested totaling my car based on the damage , and gave me an outlook for how much I should get from insurance company . They care about their customer and want them get the best from the "unfortunate situation" (auto accident) . I am pretty sure they did an amazing job repairing the car Cz my friend got his car repaired there . I gave 10 thumbs up and if I can give 10 stars I will . Thank you James ! Thank you Alicia ! thank you for helping me . read more

I can't say enough good things about Kim's Auto Body. James was professional, helpful, communicative, and the work done on my 2007 Land Cruiser was completed to a very high standard. James also helped recommend a qualified detail shop and PDR service to take care of a few other things I wanted to get done while the truck was being repaired. Bonus that the office is clean, and the staff is very professional as well. I would not hesitate to recommend James and Kim's Auto Body to anyone. read more
