One of the best places to come to for audio service professionals. Yes the place is busy at times( popular.‍) so getting a appt is best Chance of getting seen instead of just popping up ,unless you're just trying to buy audio equipment. JOSE Sr is from the old school.Will work with you, if you're cool folks and come with NO Attitude.....

“They didn't have the type of radio that I wanted in stock, so the owner suggested I pick it up at Best Buy and come back for the install - which I did.”

I brought in my 2010 Honda Civic after introducing the front bumper to something it apparently did…read morenot get along with. They told me the proper fix was a new bumper, which I'm sure is true, but when I explained that my current budget was more in the "please make this stop hanging off the car" range, they worked with me. They were clear that reattaching damaged plastic isn't the same as magically making it new again, but they didn't push me into spending more than I wanted to. They also gave me the usual list of other things my aging Civic could use, but it felt much more like a doctor saying "keep an eye on this" than a mechanic saying "your car will explode by Thursday unless you give me your credit card." That makes me much more likely to actually come back and have those things addressed later. Then I picked up the car and discovered they had CLEANED IT. Not a courtesy wipe-down. My car was gross. They vacuumed it, cleaned the carpets, got grime off the steering wheel, washed the exterior, and somehow made it smell like a vehicle owned by a responsible adult. Bumper looks great, car is cleaner than it has been in a very long time, everyone was friendly, and I left feeling like I got a great deal. Five stars. Would accidentally damage car near them again.

I have been a customer of Transtar over 10 years. Two weeks ago I went to Transtar for annual…read moremaintenance. I was very pleased to find out that I did not have any problems at this time. I was so thrilled I felt compelled to write about my experience with Transtar. I find that Mr. Tran to be very honest, and knowledgeable about new, and used cars. I regularly ask about car maintenance, cost of parts, and advice on new and used cars. Mr. Tran has such a vast knowledge of just about any car, he is truly one of a kind mechanic. Anyone who wants an honest mechanic, one who will not rip you off, and tell you the truth about your car's needs Transtar is the place to go. This is very important especially during economic times like this when every penny counts. I highly recommend Transtar for all your automotive needs. 5 star review!!!

Rancho San Antonio, East Oakland

I got into a horrible car accident a year ago, and my friend referred me to Choy's Auto. I'm so…read moreglad I took her advice because within a week or so, they were able to completely repair the fender, bumper, and hood of my car. Besides the impeccable job they performed in fixing my car, I was really amazed at the professionalism and transparency of the business. Unlike other car body shops that try to upcharge their customers, Choy worked with my insurance and gave me decent pricing that was unmatched to other shops. UPDATE: I feel compelled to write this review as it is a year later and time for me to return my car as it is a lease, and the dealership inspector was going to charge me $200+ for my front bumper that appeared to be misaligned (likely from slightly going over a curb or something). I called Choy's Auto to explain my situation and they were more than willing to take a look. I dropped by and literally within 10 minutes they were able to realign it for me for free. So overall, I would highly recommend Choy's Auto Body & Repair. If you are looking to get your car fixed for any reason or hesitating -- look no further! I guarantee you won't find another car body shop that provides this type of honest, professional, and quality service.

I would give this place 10 Stars if I could. The best service in town. I got into a car accident…read moreand brought my car in the job was done within three days got the work done in three days.

I'm not embarrassed to admit I used AI to gather information regarding the type of body shop I needed to do a ceramic coating, as well as red flags to watch out for. I was doing my search on Sunday, and ended up on Yelp to look for a reputable site. I sent a text message to VK and to my absolute surprise I received an answer shortly after sending the text. I didn't expect to receive a response so soon, especially on a Sunday. So I was doing double- duty... texting Paul from VK while making inquiries on AI to see what questions I should ask. AI told me Paul was giving me A-plus superior service and providing accurate and honest answers, so I took the deep dive and made an appointment. When I arrived at the shop I felt like I was meeting old friends. The guy who initially greeted me was incredibly kind and gave me honest answers about other questions I had. Paul arrived about five minutes later and he was so incredibly friendly. As a woman going into any business, especially where I am spending a large amount of money, the way I am treated speaks volumes about their customer service. When I returned several days later, Paul showed me the vehicle and I hugged him. My car looked amazing and I was so pleased with the work these guys did. I met the guy who did the ceramic coating and it was obvious these guys take tremendous pride in the work they do. Per my request Paul also sent me links to the products I could purchase to maintain the integrity of the work they did. As I am moving put of state in a few months I plan to return so they can tint my windows. These guys exhibit high integrity and it shows in the way they treat customers and the quality of their work. I literally want to bake cookies for the entire crew! If you're on the fence about where to take your valued vehicle for ceramic coating or tint, hands down this shop is definitely the place to go.

This is my third time coming here. I am now here for my third vehicle because I am a loyal customer…read moreand I like their service. Our vehicles have been done at the same day for me as long as I have been able to drop them off in the morning to give them plenty of time to work the tent. I first got my truck done, then my SUV, now my smaller car as well. I like the pricing and of course the customer service as well. I plan on coming back for my fourth year in the near future this year as well. I'm gonna check them out. I like to choose the ceramic tent option that helps reduce the signature inside your car, which is better than a carbon Titan. It is worth your money, especially in California in these hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot hot.

Van is still the man who doesn't disappoint! I suffered a terrible rear end accident that damaged…read moremy back bumper and completely destroyed my aftermarket custom body kit as well. This incident happened back in January of this year so it is an overdue review that I feel deserves an update on behalf of Van's work. I came to Van for my previous aftermarket custom installs so needless to say I returned to Van once again to have him reinstall my back bumper body kit that I had reordered. Very exquisite work from Van! Will return if I need custom installs again! Also, just a week ago I recommended a friend from SF I had met to Van for installing an after market spoiler onto his car, my friend was also overly impressed by Van's work because none of Van's employees knew the proper procedure to install the spoiler. He was a happy customer !

There are a lot of auto body shops in Oakland and they all have very similar sounding names. So…read morewhen my car had some body damage that includes some dents, paint damage and a broken side mirror, I wasn't sure where to go. My mom suggested Smooth Auto Body. My dad took his Porsche into them before after a slight fender bender and she said the non-insurance price was reasonable, but then again that was a Porsche so I was a little skeptical. I was able to file the insurance claim pretty easily given the fact that it was a hit and run. I came in with the claim# and insurance estimate and came in once for them to take a look and then brought it in a way days later. When I was there they were fixing a lot nicer and more expensive vehicles than my Hyundai Elantra so I figured my car would be in good hands. The owner, Mr. Gee, is friendly and gets right down to business. The repairs took slightly longer than I expected but it coincided with Thanksgiving so I'm giving them a break. In fairness I brought my car in before they even had a chance to order the parts because my insurance set me up with the rental sooner than expected. What matters is they did a good job. In the area where they did the repair you couldn't tell there was an accident. They tested the wheel alignment and also cleaned both the inside and outside of my car. I'd recommend them to folks who need some auto body work done and I hope I don't have to go there again anytime soon.
