Do not take your car to these clowns if you, like myself, want to avoid a premium increase. I should have had my car towed elsewhere when I saw the disgustingly out of shape guy come stomping out the garage to give the car a once over & the way he threw all 300+ pounds into my front seat. He seemed annoyed that my front seat needed adjusting to accomodate his girth. Sorry for not being morbidly obese. They said they would call within 24 hours with the estimate. 48 hours later I call for the estimate & am quoted $400, $650 to repair the bumpers surface & paint so i go with $650 which seemed reasonable considering I took all the necessary parts. None were used. They claimed it would be cheaper but really they didnt want to be bothered unless insurance was available so they could legally do what an individual would be prosecuted for, insurance fraud. Not sure if it was because Im black & they assumed I wanted the work done for virtually nothing or what but I had allotted $1500.00 for the repairs. They used the machine to pull out the bumper reinforcement, but not quite enough although anyone who isnt blind could see that it could have come out more without breaking. Then they were nice enough to drill their own holes so the headlights could go in & used whatever bolts they found on the floor, some with no nuts attached. Their repair work has caused me to now have to pay more money to go & get all the same parts I took to them (the ones I gave them mysteriously vanished) and have them put on & painted because the front end of my car is making more noise now then it did after the accident. Why? Because things are now rubbing against other things that were altered to put the front end back together. Now, Ive had all sorts of body work done in the past so I never expected a pristine car in return but I would never have expected chewing gum smeared across my back seat or cigarette butts all over my floor. Thanks for burning my $60 floor mats that werent even a month old. I have Smart Start in my car & it saves the position of the car every time the alarm is armed & that information is accessible through an app on my phone. The afternoon I picked up the car, I checked the app & that morning the parking location was saved as 7th & Market. I can think of no reason why my alarm would have been armed at that location. What a nightmare!!! Oh, & if you do go, skip the disgusting "wash" at the end. I had to stop at a car wash immediately after to get the streaked & smeared windows clean.

Do not trust this shop. If youve had you car repaired there, do yourself a favor and check to make sure that the parts and the work that youve paid for was done. They charged us for a part that cost $500.00 and they never brought it. We only found out that the part wasnt purchased as well as other repairs not having been made that we had paid him for when we took the car to someone else to look at because it wasnt driving rite. When I confronted Carl about it, he lied. He finally admitted to it after I presented documentation from the other shop. He purposely avoided giving me an estimate of the repair cost in an attempt to hi ball me once he saw what that the insurance payout was over $10,000.00. If that wasnt enough, Carl tried to keep an overpayment that the insurance co. accidentally sent to him instead of turning it over to us. Weve given this guy between $15,000.00 -$20,000,00 in business over the last few years, but we are DONE with him. He is a crook.

Love this shop they do excellent work. They repair my red lexus sc430 replace the front bumper and match the paint perfectly and it was ready in a day. Also repair my red Porsche Cayenne S that my husband smash the grill and side mirror up smdh and these guys repaired it in a day couldnt even tell it had been in a accident.. Their prices are so reasonable that I never go thru my insurance. I refer them to anyone who needs body work on there car. AAAAAA +++++ SHOP!!!!

Great service, good job, car looks great. P L Auto Body Inc is so helpful and keeps you updated on everything. They made a mistake when they were fixing the car, which caused some other problems...and P L Auto Body Inc promptly paid out of his own pocket to have my own garage easily fix the problem. Honest, hard-working and efficient ...I highly recommend these guys
