    Nate installed a custom tube bumper and skid plate, mounted and wired lights, and built and installed the roof rack.

    Where to begin... Whether you are simply looking to have some tube bending done or you are building something one off and totally unique that has not been done before, or anything in between, Nate at N8Z's Fab has you covered. I came to Nate after being turned away at countless big name off road shops while looking for someone interested in helping me turn a 2007 Red Bull Mini Cooper pickup into the first ever off-road Mini Cooper truck. I knew immediately when I stumbled across Nate and his garage that I had found the right guy when, unlike all the other shops I had gone to, he actually came out of the garage, inspected the car personally, and listened to the crazy idea that I had. Since first coming to Nate at the beginning of the project, he has continued to exemplify incredible workmanship, skill, and patience as we edged our way through the complexities of building something completely one-off. His creativity and ability to build, fix, and repair any and all things mechanical has made him the best person to work with. Our project has had many speed bumps and road blocks along the way, as you might imagine building an off road Mini Cooper truck, but Nate has successfully tackled each and every one efficiently, at a fair and reasonable price, and with expert quality that would rival any professional fabrication shop. I cannot emphasize enough the professionalism and quality of Nate's work and no matter what your needs are, I am confident that Nate can not only handle it, but will keep you continuously updated, involved, and beyond satisfied with the final outcome. He has earned a customer for life and I would recommend his work to anyone, no matter the project or need.

    I recently had my Tesla Model X repaired after a collision and needed a full rewrap on the bumper…read moreand tailgate. After researching auto wrap shops, paint protection film specialists, and vinyl wrap experts, I chose Dependable Guys, and it was absolutely the right decision. Arson and his team did an incredible job matching my 3M Satin Dark Grey Wrap. Satin finishes are notoriously difficult to blend, especially on a Tesla, but the color match and texture are flawless. The repaired areas are completely seamless and indistinguishable from the original wrap. What really sets Dependable Guys apart is their combination of quality, speed, and professionalism. They completed the entire wrap repair the same day without compromising craftsmanship. That level of efficiency is rare in the auto wrap and collision repair space. The customer service was just as impressive. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and very detail-oriented. Arson took the time to explain the process, set clear expectations, and delivered exactly as promised. If you are looking for Tesla wrap repair, vinyl wrap services, paint protection film, or high-end color matching, I highly recommend Dependable Guys. This is easily one of the best auto wrap shops I have worked with. I will definitely be coming back for future work.

The stock ones were a weird dull gray industrial looking color and it bothered me I called them and Arson walked me through the process and pricing over the phone. He booked me for the next morning and by the end of the day I was able to pick up my ride. He runs a clean cool looking shop. The prices were very reasonable and they did great work! I chose black because it matches the car better and looks more sleek I'd definitely recommend these guys - they do a lot more stuff so check them out.

    The photos show the lazy job I had received. I take full…read moreaccountability for not replying when I first said I would. However, I followed up a couple weeks later asking if a certain date worked. I even explained that I had been busy and said the only time I'd have to bring in the car would be the following week. I paid $450 for this wrap and an extra $100 for the wrap itself. When the first job was done poorly, I went back to the shop to address the issues and they said they would fix it. I texted on a Tuesday expecting a response, and I waited until Sunday to follow up again. Instead of Lisa taking accountability, she told me I "did not reach out," which is extremely unprofessional and untrue. I had apologized for being busy, and I did reach out; she just did not respond. When I reminded her the job was poorly done and how there had been no response, she took zero accountability and tried to use my words against me. Lisa ignored my response when I explained how the situation should have been handled and how she failed to reply in a professional manner. As the customer, I should not have to teach someone how to treat me correctly or how to run a shop professionally. I wasn't trying to start problems; I stated the truth about the situation, but she did not like that. I went back because I had already paid and just wanted the work corrected. I dropped my car off again on Monday around 11:30am. The shop texted me claiming the wrap "wouldn't adhere," which I knew was an excuse. I told them to proceed because the material was fine, and if they couldn't install it, that was their shop's error. The rest of my car's wrap was perfectly fine. To double-check, I contacted the previous shop, who confirmed this shop was making excuses, saying, "The wrap sticks just fine. It sticks on the rest of your car fine. They're talking nonsense." I knew they no longer wanted to service me, and I no longer wanted their service either. I paid a good amount of money for this treatment. I made sure the job would get done. The shop told me the job would be done by Wednesday late afternoon. This was the second time they confirmed a deadline and failed to meet it. I made it clear from the start that I have a busy schedule and cannot afford delays, yet they did not respect that. Removing and rewrapping a front bumper is a 1-2 day job, it is not like I was asking to wrap half the car. I set a boundary that if it was not ready by 5pm Wednesday, as they confirmed, I would request a refund. My whole car was wrapped, had parts added, brakes caliper color change, and badges blacked out in about a week. I took it to another shop before taking it here. (Dependable Guys in Santa Ana) I am not a professional, but I am not stupid. There were no photo updates either, I had to ask for them. When they finally sent a picture, the wrap looked freshly slapped on two days after I dropped the car off. The day I dropped it off, they said the wrap did not adhere. It looked like my car sat there for two days until I asked for the photo, or it took them two days to remove a month old wrap and throw on one big piece lol.. My car is a small sedan, a CLA, not a supercar or SUV. Her words were: "Ok we will remove all the wrap and give you your money back. Come and pick it up today." She added, "You are demanding the refund so come get it. We cannot accommodate the time frame for you. Thank you we will be gone by 5 so please make it in time so we can process the refund." However, Mark (the installer) had reached out to me and told me him and his co worker would come into work early to finish the job. This was the second time they broke their own deadline, and instead of taking accountability, she tried to flip it back on me. Lisa took everything personally when this situation should have been handled with professionalism. I never asked them to remove my wrap; I just wanted the job done properly. The installer Mark was professional, but Lisa was disrespectful, dismissive, and extremely immature in how she handled the situation. I told them to leave the wrap and keep the money. This was their mistake, which took up the free time I rarely have. Even after I explained my situation, reminded them of prior mistakes, and was patient with the delays, they still couldn't get the job done on time. I didn't want or need the money back; I needed my car back lol. It was clear they didn't take me seriously, and I was forced to escalate this further, which she didn't like either. This was waste of time and caused unnecessary stress. I was frustrated because I had to deal with unprofessional and immature behavior. All I got were excuses, missed deadlines, and poor communication. This business does not stand on its word or its service. Don't bring your car here. Many shops in OC offer far better service and professionalism. I recommend Dependable Guys in Santa Ana! It turns out the wrap sticks just fine and clearly they were making excuses... 3 weeks no issues.

Still, these guys outdid me with kindness and care. I had my car ceramic coated and their reviews were great but i also look for the small things like how they treat your before, during, and after your experience. Firstly, they're nice but in a REAL way. Not a fake, trying to sell you something way. You can tell that guys are real because i talked with them a good amount of time and we were there just talking about our families and life experiences. Somehow all this while hustling and getting work done in a beautifully clean shop. These guys are PASSIONATE and it shows. I always want to know the people I'm around are smarter than me and really into their craft. Well these guy's are artists and i felt like i was invited into their world of elite car design and maintenance. They completed my car in 2 days and then booked an appointment to return so they could walk me through my first wash. They spent an hour with me, showing me how and where to buy the products. This was all free and they even put a secret candy bag in my passenger seat for me to snack on for the drive home haha. I'm going back for my ceramic tint and i know it'll just feel like catching up with friends and family. I love you guys!

They really took their time to consult with me about window tinted and PPF, explained everything clearly, and made sure I felt comfortable with my choices. The finished look of my Tesla Y turned out amazing. I love how clean and polished it looks. Leo, the owner, was especially thoughtful and even asked me to come back after 10 days for a car check up. He explained that if the PPF or window tinted bubbles due to the new application, they would take care of it, which really shows how much they stand by their work. I can't complain at all about the service or the skills here. Overall, an excellent experience and definitely a 5/5. Highly recommend.

It's conveniently super closer to where I live and the rating made me choose this place. I inquired on pricing on installing an exhaust piece and an oil change through Yelp and the business replied very quickly. Not long after I received my quote for the service and was pleased with the pricing. I made the appointment and I happened to drop it off a day prior since I ended up having free time. Later in the evening I received a text notification that the car was ready! I was surprised at how fast everything was completed. An awesome thing about the shop is they even have after hours pickup. There's a lock box outside where your keys will be kept in and you'll receive a combination for the specified box. The inside of the building is super clean and the waiting area is spacious, with couches and a bar style sitting area. Service was excellent. Josh was my point of contact in the beginning and Nick was the person who collected payment and provided me with the keys. I highly recommend this place for your automotive needs!

I spent hours and days calling my local shops to see what they could do for the large area of damage to the left rear of my car, and few of them responded or answered my messages. There are many body shops in the area surrounding RAC, but RAC is a diamond in the rough, and my time was completely wasted until I dealt with RAC. When I arrived at the shop, I had arranged a time where I would work with Sean to repair my car, and Sean told me he could repair the damage seamlessly within 3 to 4 days. Given the far more expensive cars being worked on at RAC, they assured me and left me with the feeling that I would receive the same level of care and attention to detail the more expensive cars would receive on my car. I have heard horror stories about body shops damaging cars and rushing through jobs, but RAC is incredible. The communication throughout the entire process was superb. The price for the work was fair, and given the level of attention to detail and work I received, I do not regret one penny or ever taking my car to RAC. I will not hesitate to recommend or take my car to this shop for any body shop needs. The repair to my car is seamless, and I can't tell any damage had happened to my car.

John called me right away, asked the right questions and quickly zeroed in on what was likely going on. You can tell immediately when someone knows their craft and he absolutely does. When I brought the car in, he hooked it up to diagnostics and confirmed the issue with precision. No guesswork, no runaround- just clear answers and a solid plan. He walked me through exactly what needed to be done, quoted me upfront and got straight to work. Within just a few hours, my car was fully repaired and running like it should. What really sets John apart is how he goes the extra mile. He didn't just fix the problem- he helped me understand why the anti-theft light had been stuck on and made sure I left with total clarity. Communication was top-tier too. Calls and texts were answered promptly, which is rarity these days. As someone who isn't a car expert, I appreciated how he broke everything down in a way that made sense. No pressure, no confusion-just honest, straightforward service. His pricing is fair, transparent and backed by a clear work order before anything begins, so there are zero surprises. Bottom line: if you want fast, reliable, no-nonsense service from someone who actually knows what they're doing, HNC Bodyworks is it. John has earned my trust and this is officially my go-to shop moving forward!
