Testimonials

On 7/14/2026 Emily Matthews had this to say:
I have decided to mention Carmel Auto Refinishing tonight, even though I have had them do some bodywork a few times before. Each time I go to Carmel Auto Refinishing, the owner, Danny has practical and reasonable solutions. When we have asked him to help with non Insurance body repair, he has given us the best price possible Today I went for an evaluation of the plastic grill that was pushed in from a small impact. I thought we might have to buy a new grill for our Toyota Camry. But Danny knew how to push and pull and work with the bumper to get it all back in place. I highly recommend Carmel Auto Refinishing

I worked directly with the owner of Carmel Auto Refinishing. They made repairs to my car SO easy, even with the always complicated process of working with insurance. I can't recommend them enough, and while I hope to not need additional body work, I would absolutely work with them again.
