2003 Honda Accord- Headlight Restoration

 This customer brought in her 2003 Honda Accord for a headlight restoration. We sanded off the peeling top coat, applied another coat of clear and they look brand new! 

2020 Honda CRV- Spot Job Door Repainting

This customer brought in their 2020 Honda CRV to get the passenger door repainted due to scratches. They decided on choosing the "Best Way" that we offer where we would remove and reinstall any part that isn't meant to be painted. This means we took off the chrome trim piece, the door handle, and the door mirror seeing as all three pieces did not need to be repainted or they weren't originally painted the same color as the car. After the paint was applied we let it cure in the bake booth and it was ready to go!

 

1992 Honda Accord LX- Overall paint job

 This customer came in wanting an overall paint job and a color change. The original color was unidentified but ultimately it was decided by the customer to change the color to "Gloss Grey" made by Sherwin Williams. He decided on using Enamel paint with a basic sealer and added our chip and scratch option to smooth out imperfections in the paint.  The color change helped make this older car look like new again! 

1994 Honda Civic Revamp

This customer came in looking to paint their aftermarket parts that they installed to match their original paint job titled "Frost White".  This customer wanted to paint over the moldings, door handles and mirrors. Choosing to paint said parts the same color as the car was a bold move worth making!

2005 Honda Civic Si Revamp

A young driver and his parents wanted his first car to be something a little special. So they took a nice Honda Civic Si that was looking a little old and made it look new. The Honda Championship White paint is a nice touch and a tribute to Honda's first Formula 1 victory in 1960.

2012 Honda Civic Collision Repair

We replaced the fender and mirror and fixed the dent on the door. We often explain to customers what the difference is if we repair vs. replace a part. In this case, the customer was paying for repairs themselves. Replacing the fender resulted in a better quality repair and also cost less than trying to repair it. On the other hand, it was far less expensive to repair the door than to replace it. Feel free to ask us why you should choose one option over the other. We always provide honest recommendations from both a quality and cost perspective. If an option is both better quality and less expensive, that is the option we will always recommend.

Scraped Bumper Repair & Paint

The bumper on this Honda CR-V was scraped. We disassembled the bumper, repaired the scrapes and restored the factory paint. The customer chose to also replace broken fog lights at the same time because most of the installation labor was already included in the disassembly of the bumper. It saved them about $100.

1995 Honda Accord with Microchecked Paint

This 1995 Honda Accord was still performing well when it came to us in 2019. But the paint looked like hell! The paint had develop a problem called microchecking. Over time microchecking leads to paint failure and rusting. It is characterized by small cracks (or "checks") in the paint. They look like lots of small razor cuts and are usually the result of temperature extremes. So it is common to first see the problem over the car's radiator where the paint experiences the most extremes of heating and cooling. The cracks allow water to get under the paint so metal body parts start rusting.

This post provides a very nice photo progression of the car going through sanding and masking processes in the shop.
