Big Dent in Hood

Freeway missile (who knows what) hit the hood of this Volkswagen and caused a huge dent

Something flew up and hit the hood of this Jetta causing a big dent. Fortunately, it bounced over the windshield and didn't cause more damage. We pulled out the dent and painted the hood with original factory paint.

Body Repairs and Complete Paint Job on Rav4

97 RAV4 with a complete paint job from Almost Everything Auto Body

A little 1997 RAV4 in great running condition (only 300,000 miles so far!) came in the delaminating (peeling) paint and dents in the right rear door and rear bumper and a bunch of dings. The lights in the bumper were broken too. The customer opted for an inexpensive upgrade. She has us paint the faded and splotchy original grey body cladding the same color as the rest of the vehicle. We replaced the door and got an aftermarket (reproduction) bumper and lights and fixed the dents. The paint is our enamel single stage technology with a 1 year warranty.

What's with "Almost" Everything?!!

Totaled Ford Mustang GT

Every week we get asked what the "Almost" means in Almost Everything Auto Body. This car is a good example." It was a beautiful and well loved by its owners. Sadly, it was too badly damaged to fix. Some of the things we showed the customer were the doors pushed back and down over the rear panels. The frame was crushed like an accordion AND sagging in the middle. Repairs would cost more than the car was worth and probably not get the car back to original condition. The owner plans to put the engine, wheels and any other valuable components, into a donor chassis then bring it back to us to match the original paint job.

Totaled Ford Mustang GT--frame is sagging and accordioned

Totaled Ford Mustang GT--doors pushed down and back on both sides

Totaled Ford Mustang GT--frame twist is more obvious from this view

Doing It Right--Restoration of a 1995 Toyota Supra

Body technician finishing dent repairs on 1995 Toyota Supra at Almost Everything Auto Body

The 1995 Toyota Supra is one of the most beautiful cars ever made. It was hugely expensive and as a result, it was rare even when in production. Like the Chevrolet Corvette, Dodge Viper and Nissan GT-R, it was a supercar from a company that otherwise made fairly pedestrian vehicles. The owner of this example brought it back to its original glory. He disassembled the car himself, had us fix all the dings, dents and rust, then had us paint it with our urethane 2-stage technology base coat-clear coat.
