    Great work, and fair price. My car looks like it was never hit (Chevy Traverse). And a good guy on top of it!

    Super quick response over Yelp messages when I reached out. I came in to ask about removing paint…read moretransfer on my car, and Jimmy took a look and honestly said no work was needed. He even wiped down the area himself with a polishing compound to make it go from noticeable to almost non existent. Didn't end up needing their services, but I really appreciate the honesty here.

    Updating my review after multiple visits…read more.. Hi, writing this post especially for the ladies... As an African American woman, it can sometimes feel uncomfortable going into auto shops without much knowledge about vehicles. However, if you're looking for a reliable body shop where you won't feel intimidated or pressured, this is the place. The team is friendly, professional, and easy to work with. Ask for Mark--you won't regret it. I originally found Aramex Body Shop during heavy rain in Los Angeles when my Tesla needed repairs, and that experience alone made me a customer. Since then, I've now been back a total of three times, including twice last year after two separate accidents involving my Tesla Model Y. The first accident last year I was rear-end on the freeway by a speeding driver and the second involved a rear end by a drunk driver while I was a passenger. Both accidents were not my fault, which made the situation even more stressful, but Mark handled everything smoothly. During the second repair, there was some back-and-forth with my insurance (State Farm), and the adjuster was giving pushback. Mark handled everything professionally and made sure my vehicle was repaired properly with the correct Tesla parts. That level of attention and advocacy really stood out. At one point, I was even out of the country, and Mark kept me updated the entire time through text (which I prefer), along with phone calls when needed. Communication was always clear, consistent, and convenient. He handled the follow-ups and made sure everything stayed on track, which took a lot of stress off me. Every time I've picked up my car, it looked like it just came off the showroom floor--honestly even better than when I brought it in. Mark is professional, thorough, reliable, and truly cares about his customers. He even followed up after pickup to make sure everything was good. This review is definitely long overdue, but I can confidently say I highly recommend Aramex Body Shop. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

    These guys are the real deal. Over the course of around half a year I was doing steady upgrades to…read moremy s2000 to make it look more like a Club Racer version. I took this car to this body shop twice for both upgrades; one for the bumper and lip and the other for the trunk and wing. Galaxy Auto Haus did a great job for all aspects of the upgrade, from paint matching to panel fitment. I really can't tell that the paint on the bumper, trunk, and body are not from the same painting run; the color match on these panels is that good. Pricing was pretty fair and Honorio was very meticulous when it came to getting all of the details right. If I have another kind of project for a car like this, I know that these guys will get it done right.

    UPDATE: It's fascinating how some people can lie straight to…read moreyour face. I never said this job should cost only $200-$300. What I said was that it would take approximately 2-3 hours to respray a bumper that is already removed and disassembled, and that only requires scuffing with a Scotch-Brite pad to create proper adhesion before spraying. Second, your estimator attempted to upsell full respraying of both fenders on a practically new 2024 Mazda CX-5 for $1,600, so please don't claim the quote was based on the vehicle's condition or imply that it is in poor shape. The car is literally new. This is a classic upselling tactic--you wouldn't even fully respray the panels; you would blend them and increase your profit at an astronomical price. The bumper itself requires virtually no preparation and at most 6-7 coats with 5-minute flash times, so my 2-3 hour estimate was generous. At the midpoint, I stated that $100 would go toward materials such as paint and clear coat. That figure is based on what I can purchase it for myself, as I received several quotes. I am not buying in bulk or leveraging large volumes the way you do, so my estimate is not far from reality. It's a small bumper overall. As for spray booth time--you don't have one, and you would never rent one for a job this small. An important detail: I know how to paint and understand exactly how this work is done. Overall, I requested an online quote first and sent photos in advance. That request was dodged. Instead, I was pushed to come in person--so additional, unnecessary labor I never asked for could be "found" to justify the price. Lastly, I never said the bumper was painted twice. It was professionally painted, but the pearl component did not turn out to my liking. I came to your shop because you claimed you had matched this color before, yet your estimator was unable to name a single model you had matched it on. Nor did you provide any proof that you were capable of doing so. I don't mind paying extra for work that has already been done correctly, but after seeing these tactics and reading outright false statements, I'm glad I walked away. The "obstacles" your estimator tried to create included: 1. Searching for minor hairline scratches to justify repainting two additional panels on a new vehicle 2. Claiming shops don't like it when parts are already prepped or disassembled 3. Taking photos to point out alleged color differences between panels on a new car

Since they're a certified shop for State Farm, it made the process feel a little less stressful from the start. I stopped by one morning and explained the situation to DJ. He came out, took photos of the damage, and told me he'd email over the estimate. I actually received it pretty quickly, which I appreciated. He asked that I give him about two days' notice before dropping off the car so he could order all the necessary parts. Throughout the repair, he kept me updated by text, which I really liked. At one point, he noticed some additional damage that wasn't related to this accident and asked if I wanted it repaired, along with the cost. I appreciated that he asked first instead of just assuming. Best part -- my car was ready in just two days! The whole process was smooth, communication was great, and everyone was friendly. Definitely recommend this shop if you're looking for honest service and solid customer care.

He took the time to explain to me the process and even offered to drive me to Enterprise Car Rental. I was literally updated EVERY DAY. I was texted daily to inform me everything was going well and my car would be ready when promised. Prices were reasonable. Hopefully I don't get into a car accident again but if I need any additional auto body service S & K Automotive will be the place to go.
