During this time, our team will:

  • Inspect visible damage

  • Check for possible hidden issues

  • Discuss repair options

Our goal is to give you accurate information without wasting your time.

To make the process faster, please bring:

  • Your vehicle

  • Insurance claim number (if applicable)

  • Driver’s license

  • Vehicle registration (if available)

  • Any photos of the accident or damage

If you don’t have all the documents, you can still come. Our team will guide you through what’s needed.


What Happens During the Inspection

At Excellent Body Shop, every inspection includes a complete evaluation.

Damage Evaluation

We check:

  • Exterior and panel damage

  • Paint condition and color matching needs

Repair Options

We’ll review:

  • Repair vs. replacement options

  • Insurance vs. out-of-pocket choices

You’ll understand exactly what your vehicle needs — and why.
