Paint job
Orlando H.

This is the second car I bring here. If you want something done professionally this is the place. Very happy with the work done. New paint job.

The lights use to be foggy , the whole bumper is new.

I was shopping for a repair shop after I had a vender bender. I was so pleased to find SoCal Collision. They worked around my calander having 2 jobs. Expressed with the transparency regarding financing. My 2017 van looked like it came out of the dealer. Thank you Gonzalo and his crew.

I can't speak highly enough about this place. I got into a pretty big accident and was referred to Gonzalo and his crew over here at Socal collision.They are a newer company but they delivered in a big way Gonzalo Was professional reliable responsible got back to me and checked in with me on a weekly basis about the progress of the car. I'm just super happy I chose these guys there a mom and pop shop family owned and operated and they doing fantastic job.

Cracked bumper and missing piece on bumper.
Cassandra C.

I got hit on my bumper. I went to a different place and gave me a really high estimate. Gonzo gave me a good estimate and had really good customer service. He was always in contact and kept me updated and they worked on it quickly. I really love the results. Definitely recommend this place and would come back again!

Before and After
Shawn H.

Gonzo and his guys did great, quick work at a price I was very happy with. Very good at responsiveness and communication. He gave me a quote over Yelp instead of trying to get me on a phone call I didn't want or forcing me to come in. He did a good job of giving me a breakdown of different options. I would definitely recommend and use again.

See all

Beware of these thief's, do not take your car to Metro Auto Center in any circumstance.

They pull your car apart, one part at a time and give a cheap estimate to the insurance company and then they keep charging more as they work on the car and it's too late for the insurance company to back out of it and total the car, a true rip off. We took the truck in thinking these guys are good based on their reviews, they told us that the car was going to be totaled due to its condition and how severe the accident was. A week later they told us that the insurance company adjuster has given them the green light to repair the car and that it won't be totaled but they said they were going to use all new and original parts. We talked to the insurance adjuster and she mentioned that the body shop owner told them that we asked for the car to be repaired at any cost and that we agreed that they use used parts from a junk yard which was a big lie, I specifically asked him if it would even be worth fixing it and he claimed that it was up to the adjuster. We finally realized what kind of scam they are playing and therefore we decided to take the car to a legit body shop. Once I went to remove my truck they charged me $2,000 in storage fees for the 10 days that they had the car and a $200 deductible for returning the parts that they "supposedly ordered". If they would have ordered original parts from the dealer there wouldn't have been a restocking fee. They would not let me take my car out until I paid the fee. I took my car to another mechanic shop and right away they pulled everything apart and estimated almost 4 times the price that was quoted by these thief's and the car is now totaled. Due to excessive damage and the fact that the repairs would actually cost almost double what the car is worth. I'm just glad that I didn't keep my car there for them to charge the insurance the same amount through time and have a salvaged title car that was put together by cheap parts from a junk yard.

Which brings me to the present review: Armando's. This man is the modern equivalent to Picasso. Seriously, he can fix anything for a reasonable price. My father worked at the courthouse nearby, and has converted all to take their cars here. Judges, bailiffs, some defendants. All. Everyone was pleased. Even the criminals felt like they got a square deal (I'm joking about the criminal thing). But lawyers judges, alike all see him. His shop looks like the rest of this section of town: dingy, Tijuana yellow on EVERYTHING and EVERYONE, with a little taqueria and shitty "liquor store." If you blink, or speed - you'll miss it. But chances are you have made a significant life choice/change to get to this point, you're probably not driving. GO TO HIM. HE WILL REVOLUTIONIZE YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF AUTO REPAIR: HONEST, HARDWORKING AMERICAN. A+ GO ANTEATERS (Kids went to Irvine). GO BRUINS! (I went to UCLA).

The man at the big chain said come back and we'll match a lower quote but 'why would I do that?'

I am so happy with the paint job they did on my car. Go here!

Not only was it fixed in a timely manner, they washed it, waxed it, and clean the inside of my car. It look brand new I couldn't ask for anything better. They specialize in Tesla and once I pulled in I saw plenty of Teslas being fixed. I felt very comfortable leaving my car there. The staff was very nice and they would post the status of my car so I never had to worry. Their communication was very top notch and very informative. Overall I had a great experience with Auto Fix and highly have them fix your car. Thank you

I am posting this on the Anaheim and Santa Ana locations since they sent my car back and forth…read morebetween the two and blamed each other when things were not fixed correctly. Don't be fooled by the star ratings and look at the most recent reviews for this body shop. I drive a Mercedes G63 AMG. I have listed the series of events that happened from 7/20/23, when I dropped off my car, to current. In total, it took almost 5 months to get my car back from this body shop. The work they do is terrible, messy and poor quality. They will skip as many corners as possible. If you care at all about your car, take it somewhere else. I am still dealing with the aftermath of their poor worksmanship almost a year later. 7/15/23 Car accident - I was hit from behind on the freeway. Damage: corner, tail lights, bumper, wheel well area. 7/20/23 I dropped off my car at Fix Auto in Anaheim. They call me and let me know that Fix Auto in Santa Ana will be doing the paint job because the manager, Gilbert has years of experience with Mercedes. For about two weeks, I received auto text messages saying that my car is being worked on and then the messages stop. I call consistently to ask for updates to which they say someone will call me back or that they are still working on it. 9/22/23 They let me know my car is ready & I pick it up. The next day I notice: overspray, sloppy paint job. New scratches and chips on the doors. The trunk door won't close. They did not screw the bolt in. The hinge scratched and dented the trim. Door seal is broken. 10/3/23 Fix auto again - Dropped off car again 10/21/23 They let me know my car is ready. I drive there and the issues aren't resolved so I leave it there. 11/6/23 - They let me know my car is ready and I go to pick it up. There was overspray on the rear drivers side door. The trim is messed. They added adhesive onto the existing adhesive and the trim stick outs. 11/30/23 - Went to Santa Ana to pick up my car. My car is matte but on drivers door there is now a shiny area right below the window about the size of a grapefruit. The workers try to wipe it off. It doesn't come off. They need to repaint. 12/7/23 I finally pick up my car I notice that the trunk door isn't as easy to close. A month later, I take it into Mercedes and they say it was not put on correctly and that they can adjust it for me but the problem may come back. $300 7/10/24 I take my car to Mercedes because rear drivers side door isn't opening from the outside. 7/12/24 They say that an after market screw was incorrectly installed which voids the warranty. $900 It has almost been a year since the accident and I am still dealing with the shody work that Fit Auto did on my vehicle. DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE. They have yet to reach out to offer compensation or apologies for the massive amount of inconveniences they have caused. I live about an hour away (each way, with traffic) and having to go there and point out what is very visibly wrong with the car each time was ridiculous.

Bumper Buddies is a solid mobile wheel repair shop. I imagine they offer more services but for me…read morethey repaired to wheels that had been damaged by potholes and curbs. Their tech Esteban did an amazing job and was great and communicating throughout. The wheels came out looking brand new In very please with the final result. The owner Vic stands behind his companies work and is a very reputable and straight forward. There was an issue with Toyota and their warranty and rather than harass or get angry with me they completed the job to perfection. I can't say enough about the integrity of this business and Esteban the tech was 2nd to none. If you need to use Bumper Buddies for and repairs you should choose them without hesitation!

This photo was what I submitted when requesting a mobile repair quote, and the damage is centered…read moreon the reflector itself, along with dents above and below it. The repair quote I received did not specifically exclude the reflector repair, and it included a charge for "additional materials." Because of that, I reasonably believed the visible reflector damage was included as part of the repair. When I called the office before making the appointment, they didn't tell me that the reflector itself will not be fixed. When the technician arrived, he informed me that they could only repair the dents above and below the reflector, and that the damaged reflector itself was not included. When I called Bumper Buddies for clarification, I was told that because I, as the customer, did not specifically request reflector repair, it was not included in the quote even though the dents directly above and below the reflector were included. As a customer, I relied on professionals' expertise to evaluate the photos and provide an accurate estimate. If a major visible part of the damage was not included, that should have been communicated with the customer or clearly stated in the quote rather than assumed to be excluded. It's not unreasonable for customer to expect the communication of "hey, I see your reflector was also damaged, but we cannot fix the reflector itself, but we can fix the dent above and below it". The repair quote may have matched their internal interpretation of the estimate, but it did not match a customer's reasonable expectation based on the photos submitted. During my follow-up call with Nick, he repeatedly stated that it's a "communication error" and the quote did not include reflector replacement because I had not specifically requested it. That explanation raised even more concerns for me. As a customer, I relied on their expertise to identify and quote the visible damage shown in the photos. I should not be expected to name every individual damaged part or anticipate every technical detail in order to receive an accurate quote. If I had the professional knowledge to identify every repair item myself, I likely would not have needed their service in the first place. That is exactly why I turned to them for an estimate. Based on this experience, I would not feel confident on any future estimates from them unless every single item is spelled out in writing beforehand.
