2003 Toyota Tacoma- Part replacement

This customer brought in his 2003 Toyota Tacoma to get a part replaced on the front bumper. Originally we replaced the front lower bumper.

2000 Toyota Celica- Overall Paint Job and Color Change

 This customer brought in his vehicle to correct the delaminating paint and to change the exterior color of the vehicle to Toyota's "1G3 Magnetic Grey Metallic". He had decided on going with our "Best Way" option of taking off anything that is not meant to be painted the same color as the car such as: headlights, taillights, side markers and nameplate badges. The customer chose our Urethane paint with a Urethane sealer. We also sanded out any misc. key scratches all around the car. Once we were finished with prep we painted the car, reinstalled the lights/badges and the car was good to go back on the road!

2015 Toyota Prius-- Bumper Replacement

 This customer brought in her 2015 Toyota Prius to get the rear bumper replaced and painted. She decided instead of repairing her current bumper we would order an aftermarket bumper to replace it and keep the costs more budget friendly. Once the bumper came in we prepped it for paint by adding Flex Adhesion Promoter, which would help the paint stick to a raw bumper. After painting and re-installing the rear bumper her Prius looks just like new!

We prepped the delaminating (peeling) paint and this Corolla was as good as new! 

Color Change from Green to Blue

Atomic Green, while arguably very cool, was not the original color of this Prius and the current owner wanted a return to dark blue. We repainted the entire car with an economical single-stage enamel paint.

Toyota Prius Bumper & Tailgate Repair

We fixed a dent in the tailgate, replaced the bumper and repaired the rear body on this 2013 Toyota Prius. A tricky element is the 3-stage pearl white paint. 3-stage paints achieve special shimmer and highlight effects by stacking translucent color layers on top of each other. Minor variations in color or thickness of a layer can result in poor color match. For this reason all good body shops will tell you that color matching on a 3-stage paint is difficult or impossible and that blending (or fading) paint onto the adjacent panels is required for the repair to look less noticeable. Even with blending, there can be differences between paint applied to plastic vs. metal. So most insurance companies will not cover blending for bumpers and you may notice that the bumper color does not exactly match the rest of the car.
