Process questions from Manhattan Beach customers
Do you repair Tesla and EV vehicles?
Yes — Tesla, Rivian, Polestar, Lucid, and other EV bodywork — including aluminum panel repair, high-voltage system de-energization, ADAS recalibration, and structural work on Tesla's bonded-aluminum chassis.
Can I keep my totaled car?
Yes — you can buy back the salvage from the carrier. The settlement is reduced by the salvage value. Sometimes makes sense for older vehicles or specialty cars.
Do you offer pickup and delivery?
Yes — free pickup and delivery, plus a free shuttle to the train or your home. Call (718) 723-6163 to set it up.
What insurance carriers do you work with?
Every major NY carrier — GEICO, Allstate, State Farm, Progressive, Liberty Mutual, USAA, Nationwide, Travelers, Farmers, MetLife, Esurance, AAA, plus local and specialty carriers.
How much does a bumper repair cost?
Minor scuff repair $250–$500. Plastic crack repair $400–$900. Bumper cover replacement with paint $700–$1,500. Sensor calibration adds $150–$400 if needed.
Do you do paint matching or just paint replacement?
Both. Spot blends within a panel, edge-to-edge respray, and full vehicle refinish — we match factory color codes with spectrophotometer reads, not just stock paint codes.
Do you de-energize the EV battery before repair?
Yes. Any structural repair that approaches the high-voltage system requires battery isolation per manufacturer protocol. We follow Tesla, Rivian, and Lucid procedures.
