Mel and his team did a phenomenal job on my BMW M4 that needed an area repainted. Superior customer service, great price, and Mel is an expert. Would recommend to anyone!

Mel did a great job on my 4Runner! I would highly recommend to anyone needing body work done for an affordable price and got the work completed in a timely manner. I would definitely go back for future work. Thank you!!

I had an excellent experience with The BodyWorks after bringing in my 1986 Porsche 911. The service was top-notch from start to finish! A huge thank you to the owner, Mel, and his wife, Jamie—they were both fantastic to work with and provided great service throughout the entire process. I highly recommend them for their quality work and professional care!

I wanted to thank Jamie @ body works for responding promptly to help me understand about my bumper of a 2006 Ford F - 150 & a good reason of the ONLY limited options they ran into 😕. Other than that, I would still highly recommend without questions.

I had an awesome experience with The BodyWorks. I brought in my 2013 Honda Civic Sedan because the plastic bumpers had been painted incorrectly by a previous shop and the clear coat was starting to flake pretty badly. Mel personally came out to look at the car and gave me honest, straightforward advice. Instead of trying to strip and repaint the bumpers I had, he recommended going with two original OEM bumpers. He explained that it would actually be more economical and a better long-term solution; he was absolutely right. The new OEM bumpers look fantastic. The color match is spot on, the finish is clean and smooth, and the whole car looks refreshed. You can tell they care about doing the job the right way, not just the expensive way. It’s rare to find a shop that prioritizes honesty and quality like this. Highly recommend The BodyWorks. Shoutout to Mel and his team for running a solid, trustworthy operation.

I hit black ice up in Wisconsin before moving back to Florida and Jamie at The Bodywork’s helped me every step of the way!! I was quoted close to $7000 in Wisconsin, but she got my quote down to $3500, and then even lower just to get me on the road since I was out of pocket. She worked with me, and when I needed an alignment, she found a shop and scheduled for me so I didn’t even have to do anything. She is AMAZING and deserves all the accolades and more!!!!
