Toyota Avalon Accident Damage

2012 Toyota Avalon with collision damage before repairs at Almost Everything Auto Body

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2012 Toyota Avalon with some ugly collision damage. The bumper was torn off. The headlamp, grill, wheel, fender and door were all damaged and a foglamp and some internal parts were simply gone. The customer's insurance company paid for repairs. This car had a 3-stage pearl white paint which is beautiful but also notoriously difficult to match. Can you tell the car had this much repair work done in the after photos?

Yeeowh! Bumper Torn Off Honda Odyssey

Honda Odyssey with bumper torn off

A car sheared off  the front end this Honda Odyssey and left shreds of metal embedded in the minivan. The damage looks serious but the minivan driver stopped quickly and avoided doing significant damage to her car. She and her husband bought a bumper cover themselves and asked us to paint and install it. The cost was less than her deductible.

1925 Doble E-20 Steam Car from Jay Leno's Garage



Jay Leno has done an incredible job restoring a strange and wonderful car that has special meaning at Almost Everything Auto Body. Our founder, Frank Barnard, passed by publicity photos of Doble automobiles every day in the lobby of the old factory that was home and office for a bunch of friends during college. And it was in the Doble factory that Frank and his friend Tod first started a business called Almost Everything. . . and Nothing Else. The 1990 business license is in Frank's office today with the Doble factory address.

A New Look

Color change on 2007 BMW 328i at Almost Everything Auto Body

It was time for a change. Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2007 BMW 328i that the owner changed from silver to gloss black. To make the transition clean, the owner chose to have the car disassembled so the new paint could flow into nooks and crannies and so there would not be overspray on lights and chrome. We removed the grills, door handles, mirrors, mouldings, fuel door and, of course, all of the lights and reflectors. We also painted the insides of the door jambs.

Faded Nissan Sentra SE-R

Peeling paint on Nissan Sentra SE-R before repaint at Almost Everything Auto Body

The 2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R is one of the ultimate Q-cars. It looks like an economy car. But it performs like a lithe road rocket. It's our Car of the Day. This one came to Almost Everything looking worn. The paint was dull and peeling. We reconditioned the delaminating paint, fixed some damage to the rear bumper, applied a primer-sealer to the whole car then painted it in its original red.
