Body Shops near Watchung, NJ

“Had a great experience working with Doug at Vantage Auto Group. He was honest, transparent, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He was always responsive to my texts and made everything easy and straightforward. What really stood out was his willingness to help even after the sale, stepping in to resolve a small issue with the dealership. That kind of follow-through says a lot about how he treats his customers. I highly recommend Doug and Vantage Auto Group!”

“I would definitely recommend Franks’s and will continue to bring my cars. Tom and team are very knowledgeable, honest, friendly and communicate clearly. They helped source a part that isn’t readily available and they were very open to work on a 30 year old classic vehicle. It’s hard to find places that offer this level of service these days and Frank’s delivers!

Update Oct 1st:
I recently had to get an oil change and had a check engine light. The team at Frank’s was very responsive and able to schedule my car for a same week visit. They were very knowledgeable in diagnosing the problem and helped fix the issues quickly. They communicated wonderfully throughout the entire process from scheduling, providing estimates, and resolution. The car now runs smooth and great. I would recommend Frank’s for any vehicle servicing.

Update Dec 4th:
The team was able to fit my car into the schedule last minute before the holidays in order to prepare for a long drive. I’m grateful for the shop’s customer support and flexibility while fixing diagnosing and fixing the car’s O2 sensor so quickly. I’ll continue to take my car here as my car has never run so good as it has now since I started going to Frank’s. Thank you so much.”

“Very good work, timely completion, and excellent communication. I was out of the country, but they handled everything very well and kept me properly informed through email communication.”

“Johnny's auto painting and bodyworks Inc is the best affordable auto body shop in the area. I had a scratch in my front bumper that needed to be repaired. He really gave me a fair price and promised that the car will be ready for pickup the next day. I dropped of the car yesterday morning and just pick it up before lunch time as promised. He is a man of integrity. I would have given him a 10 stars review if I could. It was a pleasure to do business with him. I will be his lifetime customer for any future auto body needs and will recommend his shop to my friends.”

“2nd job that Mr. Flow did on my 2008 Nissan Altima, the first being the replacement of trim on my car. I had to acknowledge the excellent work they did repairing both the upper and lower after market grills on my car. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and my car was returned looking better than when I brought it in. I have already informed them of my intrest in having another job done to my car in the very near future. The service was excellent from top to bottom. This, for me, helps in maintaining my car both inside and out and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
Updating this original post. I have returned twice, including this post. The first time was a paint job of my calipers and brake drums. This last time was to replace damaged tail lights. The work was done on both jobs in a timely manner and most importantly professionalism in workmanship. Their commitment to excellence is why I will remain a customer and, again, wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mr. Flow to anyone.”

“This Family business is top notch… for last two decades Chatham Collision has been helping my family with all of our collision repairs. From start to finish their communication and quality is unmatched. I wouldn’t shop anywhere else for your Collision needs, it’s never fun being in a situation where you need to have your vehicle repaired after an accident, but Chatham Collision’s team really makes you feel like family. At the end of the day your sent home with a safe vehicle that looks like new.”

“Refreshingly honest, transparent, candid. Got a quote for the work we needed done and the work matched the quote! That's a first for me regarding mechanics/body shops. Quality of the work was great, too. Had a back door that wouldn't close properly after a side-swipe incident. They fixed the exterior of the door and ensured it closed properly again. Don't take your car anywhere else, unless you like feeling had.”

“Had a minor damage caused by someone backing into my car , brought it to Mastercraft only place I trust with my cars and they got me right ! Very professional and got my car back in no time! Highly Recommend”

“Got into an accident and had to get my doors replaced. I was having issues with the other party’s insurance company and Mario Auto Services helped me along the way. The insurance company was trying to total my car at 45% value. Mario and his team fixed my car and made it look better than before the accident! Claudia and Mario were communicating with me throughout the entire process and their service was top notch. Thank you again!”

“I recently got my car repaired by Hart's Auto Body. Upon arrival to pick it up, my car looked brand spanky! Jeremy was very kind and professional. The bumper is blemish free and my car is glistening. I am more than satisfied with their excellent work.”

“A truly great experience all around! Had to have front bumper that was pulled off in an accident repaired, painted and reinstalled for a price that didn’t gouge you like some other companies tried to do. Thank you for great work!”

“Chris was amazing and really helped me out after experiencing a minor car problem. He was friendly, professional, and just an all around good person! Will definitely go there again if needed and would definitely recommend. Thanks again!”

“I had a great experience with JE Auto after my accident. They were professional, honest, and kept me informed throughout the entire repair process. The team did an excellent job fixing my car—it looks and drives like it did before the accident. The turnaround time was reasonable, and they made the whole situation much less stressful. I really appreciated their attention to detail and customer service. I would definitely recommend JE Auto to anyone who needs quality auto body repairs.”

“NJ auto art is a great place - they were the first to answer my call about repairs to my new car and were incredibly prompt and respectful. Thanks to Zain and Mustafa for their diligent work and professionalism”

“If you are looking for a person who cares for your car with kindness and a fair price, this place is for you. Roman is your guy. I wish I had known about his shop sooner. I have been going to AAA, thinking they would help me; instead, two years later, my issues were still there, and they kept the car every time. Today, Roman found the problem and fixed some of the issues in my car while I was with my children in the car.
I'm telling you, go there; you won't regret it
Remember, he is reasonable too.”

“had an outstanding experience with D&J Collision Center from start to finish. The entire process was seamless—from dropping off my car, getting my rental on-site, receiving consistent updates throughout the repair, to picking up my vehicle when it was finished.

The communication was excellent, and the quality of the repairs exceeded my expectations. My car looks absolutely amazing, like nothing ever happened. The team was professional, friendly, and made the entire experience stress-free. I highly recommend D&J Collision Center to anyone in need of quality collision repairs!”

“This was my first time getting my car serviced at Highland Park Service Center and George was professional and knowledgeable throughout our entire encounter. He discussed all of my car's issues with me (total for everything would've been ~$1500) and walked me through different options I had without pressuring me to make a decision quickly. I'm confident that my car was well taken care of and really owe it to him for the excellent experience I had here.”

“My wife and I have trusted Al Meschi Auto Body in Highland Park with our personal vehicles for years, and I honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else.

They’ve replaced windshields, taken care of brakes, and detailed both our car and truck. Every time, the work has been excellent and the price has been great. It’s such a good feeling to have one shop we can turn to for so many things and know we’ll be happy with the result.

Al Meschi Auto Body has earned our loyalty again and again. If you’re looking for a shop you can count on, I can’t recommend them highly enough!”

“Britland is amazing. They did an excellent job repairing my Kia. Stephanie and Anna were awesome. They kept me informed of the process and answered any questions we had during the repair process. Highly recommend Britland!”

“Greg, Joey, and the whole crew were amazing to me and my family. Did the job the right way, the first time, and at the right price. Never want to need their help but great to know they're there when you need them.”

“Millington Auto Body is the place to go if you need work done in your car. Al inspects the car for what needs to be repair and is fair in pricing. I left my jeep there yesterday after my car was hit in a parking lot. Today, I picked up my car beautiful repaired and fully cleaned!Thank you Al & Cesar”

“Staff are very helpful and they have good prices. They work with a mechanic for non-body work stuff.

Expect a bit of a wait, as they have demand for a reason.”

“This is the best repair shop. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. I have been there 2 times in 3 months for 2 different vehicles best in the business for me.”

“Doug and his team fixed a bad dent and repainted my vehicle following an impact I had with an object on the freeway. Initially the paint wasn’t a good match, but Doug gladly brought my car back in to completely repaint and blend the side of the car again to ensure I was satisfied with the work.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
After a recent accident left my front bumper significantly damaged, my insurance company referred me to Acme Auto Body Shop. I had never heard of them before, but I can honestly say the experience felt like a blessing from God.
From the moment I dropped off my car with Ethan, everything—from paperwork to arranging a rental—was handled quickly and efficiently. In a time when customer service often feels cold and impersonal, the team at Acme truly stands out. They treated me with genuine courtesy and care, which made an otherwise stressful situation much easier.
I dropped my car off on Monday and had it back by Friday—fully repaired and looking beyond my expectations. The quality of the work was simply excellent. On top of that, I mentioned an unrelated issue with my interior dashboard, and they fixed it beautifully, making it look brand new—and refused to charge me for it. I was honestly amazed.
If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Acme Auto Body Shop sets the standard for what customer service and quality workmanship should look like in every business. Thank you for an outstanding experience!”

“Impeccable attention to detail.
Their body work is showroom quality.
And best of all, they are Veteran Owned.

“Going to an automotive body shop is usually like going to a hospital: you only go when something bad has happened. Automobile accidents are an unfortunate reality for many of us considering how congested traffic has become, as well as the increase in distracted drivers. Alas, when someone recently ran into the side of my 1961 Mercedes-Benz 190SL, thankfully nobody was hurt, but they damaged my passenger side rear quarter panel, fender and door. FYI, I had this car professionally restored in the late 1980’s and took it on the regional auto show circuit and did quite well. Today, I drive it on nice weather weekends and to local car shows and enjoy sharing it with admiring onlookers. Being a valuable older, special interest vehicle, I contacted respected friends and auto industry executives who know and work on these types of cars and understand what is involved to appropriately repair to a very high standard, any damage. Tommy Caruso, Proprietor of Caruso’s Auto-Motive, Inc. came highly recommended by the owner of a regional Mercedes-Benz Dealership, as well as several Mechanics who specialize in German automobiles, from the 1950’s to present day. From the moment I spoke with Tommy on the phone, to when I had my car flat-bedded to his repair shop in Plainfield, NJ, I had a very good sense that I had made the right choice. I found Tommy to be very personable and together we reviewed the damage, and he assured me that it was not as bad as it looked. His biggest concern was the anticipated challenge of blending the new paint on the repaired rear fender and door with the rest of the vehicle’s 37-year-old paint. He met with a second appraiser from my automobile insurance company and submitted a detailed supplemental claim, explaining why he strongly felt the need to paint the entire car, since matching the older paint would be very difficult. Thankfully, my insurance company agreed and accepted his supplemental claim. Once the work was complete and the new paint fully cured, I saw the repaired and repainted car and was most pleased. He and his team made sure that the costs for all the work was always stated and shared with me, as well as clearly communicating his process and progress. He even detailed my car before I left. I can attest that Tommy strives for excellence in his auto repair work. He and his crew’s experience, expertise and passion for doing an excellent job is most evident in not just my car, but in the other examples of several older and current Porsches, BMW’s, Mercedes-Benz’s, AMG’s and Maybach’s, that were in his shop at the same time as my car. If you have a special car that has a body issue that needs attention, it is well worth checking out Caruso’s Auto-Motive, Inc.”

“It was my first time dealing with a repair and the whole process was so easy! From the time I came in with the issue to picking up the car, I was guided along the way. The team was transparent, prompt, and provided consistent updates. I knew my car was in good hands even throughout the winter storm! Highly recommend!!”

“My family goes here for pretty much all our car needs. I went here recently to double check my engine coolant level and they were very helpful, and even answered all my random car questions! Highly recommended.”

“My godfather used to hang out at Giffords with the owner back in the 80's and 90's. When he passed he left is 79 Stingray to me and I took it upon myself to make sure it was properly restored by professionals to honor him. Thanks to the wonderful team at Giffords, they've brought it back to life. Very upfront about all the work it needed and never did anything without asking. Also looking forward to continuing to work with them.”
