Honda CR-V Collision Repair

Dented quarter panel and bumper on Honda CR-V at Almost Everything Auto Body

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2001 Honda CR-V compact SUV. The vehicle was rear-ended and needed a new bumper, a light and dent repairs on the quarter panel. When we took the bumper off, we found more dents and broken parts, see the photos below. We went back to the insurance company and filed a "claim supplement" to ensure all of the damage was repaired and paid for by the insurance company.

More Ferrari Hill Climbing Mischief


Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is a Ferrari F430 Spider. As you can see, the hill climb attempt was a bit too ambitious. One more example of why we strongly recommend Ferraris be used only on paved roads and not for rock climbing. We recommend Land Rover, Jeep and Steyr-Daimler-Puch for mud and boulders. (We should also mention that everyone involved in this accident lived to tell about it.)

Please send your abused Ferraris along with generous donations to:

Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ferraris (SPCF)

Thanks as always to WreckedExotics.com for the photos and alerting us to the destruction of another exotic car.

Rusty, Dented 1992 Jeep Cherokee Returned to Glory

Rust on old Jeep Cherokee before repairs & paint at Almost Everything Auto Body

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a rusty Jeep Cherokee that waited a few years longer than it should have for paint. There were also a couple of decent sized dents in two of the doors. We fixed the dents & the rust, got rid of the peeling paint, then repainted the whole SUV with 2 coats of our tough, single-stage Urethane.

1997 Mazda Miata Auto Painting

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1997 Mazda Miata that came to us with faded paint and some half-finished body repairs. The customer asked us to finish the bodywork, repaint it with our least expensive enamel and keep to a modest budget. We think it turned out nice.

Making a Scraped-Up Camry Look Decent for Not Much Cash

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1997 Camry with lots of dents and scrapes. The customer said his car was a neighborhood embarrassment. All he wanted was to stop getting grief. He needed his car to look better from a short distance. He told us not to fix any dents or scrapes. All we did was paint the car with our most budget-friendly enamel paint. If you look closely, you can still see dents & scrapes under the new paint. But from a few feet away the transformation is great. The eyesore became a decent looking car.
