    After accident before repair!
    Dominic O.

    I had a fender bender last month and this was the only shop that would take my car! I will start with my criticisms first. Hopefully they will learn from them. Send more email communication or calls to let the customer know what is going on. Don't assume that the customer understands what they need to do to get things taken care of the way they want! Clarify by spending a little extra time making sure you let the customer know how to get exactly what they want! Not everyone understands that everything is backed up now! I was originally told that it would take 7-10 days for my car to get repaired! It took a month! They repaired my car excellent! Looks like new!

    I contacted this place for a quote the owner told me they dont offer auto body service. Dennis if that's was the case the. Why not say you were unclear and needed more info , you sent a response that said you were UNABLE AND DIDNT OFFER THE SERVICE. Instead of responded to my review and basically looking like a liar. How did I know you needed more info you didn't request it, you blew me off . You didn't ask because you didn't want to . It was easier to just blow me off. Don't come up with the solution after the fact Dennis. I requested a quote, if the information wasnt enough all you had to do was say that, but you didn't you sent me a message saying you were unable and didn't offer the service. PS Stop contacting me Dennis you are a liar. The message is there in black and white. Directly from you Dennis saying exactly what I said you said. That makes you a dishonest liar. I'm glad I found out now and not after the fact.

    Definitely one of the best in the county when it comes to custom detail work. I purchased this car online In Arizona needless to say the car looked flawless online, it wasn't until it was delivered that I found a few cosmetic issues. Horacio and Rene did a complete once over on the vehicle and we discussed options. They completed some minor body work, repaired some gaping issues added another set of teeth to the grill and flawlessly repainted and cleared the entire car a beautiful shade of silver making her truly show ready

    I brought my 2010 mustang gt here to be repainted and have a boy racer body kit installed. Most body shops don't do custom work they just want to do the insurance work. Horacio and his team did an amazing job and took every piece off and painted them individually. The kit had problems fitting but they were able to fix the issues, attach additional mounts the kit didn't come with and just go the extra mile. These guys do amazing work and I would recommend them 100%. What sold me on this body shop was the other reviews and photos of the work they did. So I'm submitting my photos so you can see the job they did. The car shines like a mirror.

    I recently had my 1940 Nash Lafayette repaired at this shop. The work that was done was the best I have seen. Horacio and Renieri are masters of their craft. The sheet metal work and painting were not an easy task. After all it is a car that was built in the 1940's. The task was not a simple replace and paint. They did it right and I am very pleased and proud to tell everyone where I had the work done. I highly recommend this Preferred Auto Body. Bill

    Preferred Auto Body and Custom repaired my 2003 Toyota Tacoma SR 5 pickup truck in 2006. My entire front end had been damaged from me losing control hitting center divide going from Hwy 80 to Hwy 680. My good friend referred to Preferred Auto Body and Custom where they repaired entire truck, costing me over $12,000.00. Well last few years I noticed the clear coat had come off and silver paint was faded. I took the truck in for an estimate and the company starts with a 'M', and their quote was $3,200.00. The salesman kept telling we give our customers life time warranty. I made an appointment, but later decided to cancel. Anyway, I decided to take my truck back to Preferred Auto Body & Custom, and Mr. Horacio Angel reviewed paint job. He asked me to bring truck back, so his paint guy can take a look. He apologized telling me sometimes paint is defective. I returned a week later, and Horacio told me Preferred Auto Body & Custom gives their customers a 'Life Time Warranty' on all cars painted by them. He asked when can I leave my truck, so they can paint it at 'No Charge' to me. I responded I can leave it today. I picked up my truck today, and job done by PAB&C is 'Outstanding'. I gave Horacio and Team a Tip telling him lunch is on me. "It's Nice To Know There Are Some Great & Honest Companies Still."

    After.

    In short, superb work by Horacio and his team! I never expected my beloved old 1999 Acura Integra GS-R to be restored as beautifully as it was after my unfortunate accident that destroyed my front end. The car now looks better than it did before the accident. It was obvious that Preferred Auto Body demonstrated pride in workmanship that went above and beyond what I expected. They even shined the tires and vacuumed the interior! :)

    This Body Shop is the best, They have worked on my 03' Subaru WRX a few times, From Painting side skirts and misc. pieces to installing my Spoiler, These guys did an Awesome Job. While installing my Spoiler we noticed that they needed to drill 16 holes in the trunk and it did not come with a template. Was not a problem for Horacio and Reneri to install. They did an awesome and professional job. Thanks Guys.

    Oh man whats NOT to say about this awesome establishment... Horacio & Renee are an excellent team that have never let me down. They worked on my RSX that I entered in show regularly and their customer service and work quality are unmatched in the area... I, as well as the countless recommendations I have sent their way, are all extremely happy with their work. Rest assured that they will take care of you and you car, you have nothing to worry about! I uploaded a pic of my rsx in the pic section as testimonial :)

While there is never really a positive aspect of needing to get collision work done and worrying about how bad it could look afterwards, the reason I went out of my way to drive an hour to Fairfield was because he did similar excellent work on my 2007 Corvette over 14 years ago. As soon as it happened this time (idiot teenage son of my neighbor backed into the car and was about to drive away) I immediately told the insurance company that George was the only person I wanted working on it. After calling to tell him about the accident, he said he was backed up at the moment but would be able to squeeze me in since I was a repeat customer. He also surprised me by remembering the exact details of my Corvette from all those years ago. He got the repair done very promptly and sent me progress pictures along the way so I could see how it was coming along. I was also kept in the loop with regards to him communicating to both the appraisal and insurance companies. The driver's door was what got damaged and although it would have been quicker for him to probably order a new door, he took the time to fix it knowing the car would hold its value better with all the original parts. He also managed to limit the amount of painting that was required to just the fender and half of the door by blending it. I was skeptical at first about having blended paintwork but as you can see from the pictures you can't tell the difference. Additionally, he made sure that both the color and texture of the replacement paint matched the factory paint which is something I don't believe most shops care about or even know how to do. The car hadn't been waxed or polished in some time so I was worried about getting it back with only a couple panels that were shiny and the rest, not so much. No problem thanks to George as he gave me a great deal on detailing and polishing the entire car so the whole thing looks as good as shown in the pictures. Hopefully I won't need his services again anytime soon, but I would absolutely go back again as I would highly recommend him.
