Our Front End Collision Repair Process
Damage Assessment
We photograph all visible and hidden damage, pull vehicle history, and use a measuring system to check if the front subframe and rails are within factory tolerances.
Parts Sourcing
We source OEM or certified aftermarket bumpers, headlight assemblies, and hood panels, confirming fit and finish before scheduling your repair appointment.
Structural and Mechanical Repair
Any bent radiator support or frame rail is straightened on our frame rack, and mechanical components like the condenser or fan shroud are replaced as needed.
Paint Matching and Finish
We use computerized color matching to blend new panels with your vehicle's existing finish, applying clear coat and baking panels for a factory-level result.
