Fixing the Work of Scam Artists

Example of auto body scam prior to real repairs

Don't be embarrassed if this happened to you. Once a week we see a car that has been "fixed" by a scam artist. He approachs people and offers to repair damage on the spot for a reasonable price. He may hammer, apply fillers and paint. When he's done he explains that you just need to let things dry then everything will be perfect. He may even offer to come back to finish the job. You won't see him again and you will have no way to contact him. These guys create more damage than they started with. Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2004 Chevrolet Malibu that has been attacked by one of these scam artists. As you can see in the photos below, he didn't fix anything but he made the car uglier and in need of more repairs.

Collision Repair on 2001 Toyota Avalon

Collision repair on 2001 Toyota Avalon at Almost Everything Auto Body

A dented door and broken door handle make for a pretty tough driving experience. Having to crawl from the passenger seat to the driver's seat gets old the very first time you have to do it. Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2001 Toyota Avalon. We replaced the damaged door, mirror and door handle and blended new factory paint onto the fender and rear door so that everything matched.

Fender Bender

Dented fender and scraped bumper on 2012 Rav4 before collision repairs at Almost Everything Auto Body

Today's fender bender is on a 2012 Toyota RAV4. The customer has insurance but wants to avoid an increase in her insurance premium so she's paying for repairs herself. To keep the costs low, she has chosen to keep the existing bumper, even though it has some minor damage. She also chose not to do a paint blend on her door. We've told her that the repairs won't be perfect and to expect the new paint to be slightly different than the older paint. In the end she was happy with her choices and the cost for the repair was affordable.
