Well-deserved five star review: Had my Mazda CX-30 less than a month when I hit a deer, dented my bumper, and lost a piece of molding around the front passenger wheel well. Got estimates from the dealer and a large auto body shop, but both seemed really high to me, so I Googled "Best auto body repair near me" to find possible alternatives. SlickRick's had stellar reviews, so I called for an appointment. The other estimates I had gotten were for completely replacing the front bumper and wheel well molding (new parts, painted to match), but Ricky thought he could repair the bumper, and just replace the wheel well molding - at about half the cost. Yay! Since his estimate was below my insurance deductible, I decided not to go through insurance, which meant my rates wouldn't go up. Another Yay! Ricky gave me an estimate and time frame for repairs on Monday, I brought the car in on Tuesday, and by Friday my car was done (on time, at estimated cost, and looking absolutely brand new). I almost cried when I saw it, he did such an amazing job! I tried to pay him, but he asked if I minded waiting a few minutes so he could wash my car first (it was a little dusty from sitting outside). Wow! Artisan craftsmanship AND phenomenal service!!!!! SlickRick's is THE BEST - highly recommend!!!!! read more

Ric is fantastic. Last summer I purchased a 2003 Town Car that was in need of some paint work, and some minor body work, including replacing the grill (chrome was flaking off the original one). Ric was one of the three places I went to for a quote. He was the least expensive, as well as the most honest about turn around and conditions. When I picked my car up, I was blown away, it looked practically brand new. One of my big concerns was the infamous "orange peel" that can be seen in some paint jobs (even factory!), and I had told him I was willing to pay more for the time to get it as smooth as possible, and he delivered!! He also got all the brake dust stains out of my wheels, something a professional detailer said could not be done. Don't be thrown off by his workshop (it's on the property with CubeSmart storage), he does quality work. When I dropped my car off, he was finishing a BMW, and when I picked my car up, he had a Porsche he was working on. The man does quality work at reasonable prices! read more

I met Ric at a neighborhood block party. It was of the best things that happened that day. He give me his card. I have a honda pilot and the seat broke. He came to my house and gave me a estimate on fixing the front driver seat of my Honda pilot. He save me over $1,600.00 and did an awesome job. I dropped the car off in the morning and picked it up after work. Everything is working great. For those he need it. Give him a call he is super nice and knowledgeable. He look at my seat. determined what was wrong, gave me an appointment and fix it. I can not be happie and you will to so call him, before you call the dealer or some other big name repair and auto body center. Lisa B from Holly Springs, NC read more

I just got my car back from Rickey and it looks amazing. Rickey has been painting my vehicles for years & he is very professional. I own a repair shop & I only trust rick with my vehicles. In the past I had bad experience when I took my new truck to Hendrick collision in cary after it was hit. It took them 2 months to get my vehicle in for repair and when it was finished, I was not happy with their work. The interior had over spary in it,broken plastic trim and the paint had run marks. I did not let them fix their mess,I took it to rick. Rickey takes pride in what he does & does it right the first time. I highly recommend Rickey. read more

this is a real review from a real customer. my car had a couple of deep scratches in the fender that insurance priced just under my deductible so it was going to be out of pocket. I turned to yelp and called Ric based on the reviews. he gave me a price much lower than the bigger shops. he did excellent professional work, it looks like the scratches were never there. in talking to him and in seeing the results you can tell he takes pride and pleasure in doing quality work. I hope I never have reason to call him again but he's definitely the guy I will call if I do. read more

Ricky is awesome. A friend introduced me to the shop when my Volvo got struck in the door. I was planning on bringing the vehicle to a large chain type body shop but then heard of the excellent work Ricky does. I liked the thought of supporting a small business where the owner was the one repairing and painting my vehicle. After meeting Ricky i made an appointment for the repairs to be done. The repairs were completed on time, the work was outstanding and it was all done at a reasonable price. I have found a new body guy in Cary. Thanks Ricky. Keep up the good work. read more

Had a small mishap on left rear gray bumper which resulted in roughly a 6'' by 6" area of blue paint scratches. Brought the car into Ricky the next day and he repaired it on the spot. No waiting, just immediate service by someone who I can tell loves their work and did an awesome job. In less than 20 minutes he treated the area, buffed out all the scratches and restored the damaged area to like new condition. I would highly recommend his service and skill and would definitely return to him for future repairs (hopefully not too soon). Very satisfied customer! read more

For anyone who has any doubts or hesitations about having auto body repairs or paint repairs by someone other than a big time collision repair shop - Don't. Ricky is a local, small business owner who takes pride in his work and client satisfaction. He is a perfect example of someone who goes above and beyond standard expectations and exemplifies honesty from the start to finish when he presents the final product. I was very satisfied with the quality of his work and have already recommended him to family and friends. Highly recommended! - Stuart read more

I was referred to Slicrics Auto Works by a friend who knows cars - and I'm glad I took him up on it! They did a great job repairing a nasty scratch on my car. I highly recommend SlicRic to anyone who needs an excellent job on auto body repairs at a great price. Be patient - he has lots of work because of his skill and all of the referrals - but he will get back to you and he will follow through promptly until the job is done. He kindly accommodated my schedule. Most highly recommended! read more

Strongly recommend! I'm a very happy customer! I originally admitted my car to RG&J after my unfortunate crash on I-40, they quoted me an outrageous price and 1 month to finish. So I switched to Ricky's, and it was the best decision I ever made! Ricky was very patient, friendly and always fast to respond to calls and texts. He fixed my car in a week and for less than half the price I was quoted by RG&J. My car now looks even better than it was before the crash! Again, strongly recommend! read more

WOW! I am so grateful for Ric! First, he quoted my car for 1/4 of what the body shops were charging me. Then he got the repairs done a week earlier than we planned. And he cleaned up and touched up other areas of my car! Plus, he was super kind and professional. Ric does not cut corners or rush through the repairs. He literally treated my car as though it was his own. I will recommend him to anyone who needs body work. His prices are incredible and his work is awesome!! read more

I visited Ricky to get a scratch fixed on my car. I had received 2 quotes from other local paint shops, but Ricky's quote was easily the best. The work turned out great and I would definitely recommend him to others. The only issue I had was that my car was supposed to have been finished "the next day" but it ended up taking an extra day. Ricky did inform me of the circumstances for the delay so that was fine. Aside from that minor hiccup, everything else was perfect. read more

After having received a very fair estimate from Ricky I proceed to have my vehicle repaired. Based on all the 5 star ratings I expected good quality but when I picked my car the quality was far beyond just good, it was amazing. Not only did Ricky do the work we had agreed upon he also took the time to touch up all the paint chips on the hood and door which was much appreciated. What a pleasure dealing with him and I strongly recommend his services Norm F read more

My brand new car met my garage door in a most unfriendly way. The metal door handle scraped down the front leaving a nasty mark and even chipped the paint out in places. I was sick! Luckily I found Ricky. He was able to fix and paint the whole front panel, and you can't even tell anything ever happened. It looks just like it did when I drove it off the lot. Thank you to Ricky for fixing my dumb mistake quickly and for a very reasonable price. read more

Ricky did an exceptional job on our vehicle. We received a recommendation from a friend after getting several quotes at larger body shops. We chose Ricky based on the recommendation and couldn't have been more pleased with the results. In addition to the great work, Ricky is very easy to work with, honest and straightforward in his business approach. I highly recommend working with Ricky for your vehicle body repair needs. read more

Had Ricky fix my cars bumper which had paint scratches and a ding. The other side also had scratches from another incident. Ricky was quick to give me a quote and schedule. The best part is when I received my car back, I was like new and his price is very reasonable and was delivered on time. See before and after pics. Note that his shop is in the cube smart storage. Will definitely recommend him to all my friends. read more

Fantastic Service at a Fantastic Price. I scratched up the bumper of my wife's Lexus. Ricardo did an amazing job of repairing the car and the paint match in incredible (The paint on a Lexus is multi-coated, and other body shops had told me they could never match the paint - Ricardo proved them wrong!) Best of all Ricardo's price was less than 1/2 of the national shops. I'd recommend Ricardo to anyone anytime! read more

After my teenage son damaged his 05 Mustang I needed quality repairs at resonable prices. I found Ric on Craigslist and called him. I took the car by and he gave me an estimate that was fair. Repairs were completed right before christmas and he did a superb job. I highly recommend Slicrics to anyone looking for an honest person who will deliver what he promises with quality at a fair price. Thanks Ric! read more
