2013 rdx white got broken into couple nights ago. They busted up the driver side lock and key the driver door rear seat door and rear panel. One long line.

Looking to bring it down to AK for the icbc claim. Do they do good work. They be able to fix it up to its previous condition. Colour match pretty good?

Or any other suggestion in the Burnaby area?

They got overspray ALL over my friends $65k bmw and when he brought it back one of the owners made the painter come out and berated him right there in the parking lot, after "trying" to clean off the overspray the car was swirled to shit and the car is white :whistle:
Also got jerked around on the rental

I thought they did a good job on my 2010 Suzuki SX4. Someone else on RS recommended me to go there...

-I got t-boned right below the front passenger door. I was not at fault for this one.
-Also had a bad key scrape on the front corner of my hood. Vandalism, so I paid for this deductible.

I couldn't tell that there was previous damage after they were done.

For my cheap black car I would say they did a fantastic job. I am a poor and humble human being, so I can't say how they do for fancy cars with owners with a sharp eye.

If they do a good job, I would rather give my money to small business than to millionaire billionaire companies with a hundred different branches.

I've had two cars repaired there and thought they were top notch.

I also got some work done there (although this was nearly 10 years ago) and they returned my civic in the cleanest state it's ever been in. Repair was excellent.

Brought my 2003 20th anniversary GTI there long time ago. My hood and front bumper was damaged from a accident. Instead of giving me back the actual 20th anniversay front lip they swap it to a stock 2003 front lip.

Not my car but to show the differences.

So from this

to this

Told them about it and they just said they can't do anything blah blah blah. I didn't bother pushing them about it because i was planning to change the front lip later on. But still is pretty shitty they didn't check the difference before ordering and installing. Doubt they even check the part number. And they also installed the wrong type of headlight...the 20th come with smoked headlight and they orderd and installed the original one. So i have to wait another week to get my car back.

Sorry to hijack, but how's fast track in Richmond VS VIP in burnaby?

[XplicitLuder]

VIP is a fellow member's shop ^ they do great work from the pictures i seen. Altho i never had my there, but if i need too ill definitely go there. My gf took her car to Jetway in vancouver and they did an awesome job

[donjalapeno]

Fastrack hands down best body shop. They did a spot on job with my nasty rear end accident. The paint matching was unreal way better than i expected. It did take a long time though 2+ months because they're a busy shop but it was worth the wait.

Will they paint my wing now that I have an OEM one?:yuno:

One thing I found annoying about Fasttrack is that they put Fasttrack license plate frames on both the front and back of my car. Didn't realize it until after i drove home.

It's free advertising for them and and although i think they do good work i do not appreciate that they just assume this is OK for them.

Another thing i found very annoying was that when my car was ready to pickup, the receptionist (i believe) called me and was very insistent that i come to pick it up ASAP. This was around 1 PM in the afternoon and i told her I could not just leave work to pick up my car. Initially we had hung up after i convinced her that coming in the next day would be better for me. She later called me back and insisted I come in. I finally relented and left work to pick the car up. I don't understand why they were so insistent that i pick up my car.

Again, I believe Fasttrack does good work. This makes it all the more confusing to had to have experienced what i described above.

[mos_skeeto]

Used and recommended them a few times. Always had good service and work.

I went to Rich City Collision in Richmond last month for my ICBC claim when someone backed up into my front bumper, would recommend them.

[Verdasco]

did tristar collision in burnaby, located in where the previous no1 collision was

great place! good staff!

[BEEB]

Does OP live in the North Burnaby area? This thief had been around for quite some time and there's RCMP reports and finger prints of the suspect.

They are on Vulcan Way

Yea north Burnaby Pandora triumph area. he broke into my neighbours too. Look like he had a tool also that can disable the alarm and roll down the windows of the newer keyless vehicles. I reported it to the non emergence line but its so hard to catch him though.

What's the story on twinstar? You see some pretty amazing cars in there all the time. But it also kind of sad to see how many need to be fixed lol.

[white rocket]

VIP Auto Body all the way :thumbsup:

[rriggi]

VIP Autobody as everyones said before, and no not because hes a friend, but because he does damn good work compared to some of the other shops in GVRD.

I don't recommend Rich City, went there a couple months ago to get my quarter panel repainted. Colour didn't match nicely and they oversprayed all over my car. Bad customer service, the owner even yelled and cursed at me when I wanted some clarifications.

[tool001]

Tried ak,, knew the owner.. Penny autobody knew owners bro, and another one, on revscene, been multiple times to each. But best work and satisfaction was pender Autobody,

[swfk]

Automind Vancouver for me, my mk7 gti has a metallic white paint and the bumper was backed in by lot boys. They spot painted the bumper and recleared the whole thing. I'm pretty picky with colour shades and I can't tell its been hit.

Been to AK and my grill wasn't put on properly. Had uneven gaps and some clips were missed.

[jinxcrusader]

I've had some repairs done at VIP Autobody. Got rear ended by a metal plated 80's volvo. They did great work.

[Peturbo]

Pender autobody did a great job paint matching my front bumper. This is a 3 stage pearl white too which is very hard.

[dvst8]

Got a bumper painted at AK. Paint match is about 99%. Would recommend. A++++.

[kkttsang]

Decided to go with AK so close to my house. I'll give then the benefit of doubt until the job is done. Will come back with updates of the fix.

[hi-revs]

Taking my car tmrw to Vip for front bumper hit and run.
