A&P did a beautiful job re-painting 3 panels on my car due to extreme sun spots. The color was an exact match and the finish was smooth and glossy. They even restored my oxidized headlights which now look brand new. The price was the best I found and the work was done on time. Highly recommend!

I cannot recommend this body shop based on my experience. Came here to get a dent fixed. Paint was still intact but the shop insisted the paint had to be redone. They said they will order the paint but apparently they didn't because the color was off. Dent is not 100% gone and is showing wavy distorted lines which means 'lack of skills' in my book. I came here because of all the good reviews but they ask customers to leave a review for them. Right off the bat I knew the reviews were not to be trusted and customers should make their own mindful decision!! Extremely disappointed with the job they have done and I will have to pay another shop to fix what they couldn't fix SMH. I won't mention a name of the person who was put in charge for my body work but you have lost me as a customer and I hope this review is informative to people taking their precious cars for a dent job. Do better A&P. Good bye. Edit: The shop responding to my review with a malicious response is unprofessional. No, I am not jealous of all of your 'requested' reviews you've gotten throughout your 3 years & no I am not a liar so don't accuse me as one. Guys I can care less,,,, lol. A reputable business should take in to account unhappy experiences and accept them. Not everybody is going to be satisfied and that's a fact with any type of business. I am being honest with what I went through and this is the first time a business responded back with a rude and sarcastic response in my 30 years of leaving honest reviews. A&P, please be insensitive to your customers and do a better job!! Sheesh..
