Can anyone on the forums recommended a good autobody shop i want to get my front and back bumper repaired from rock chips etc and also it was recently backed into. I went to Licatta auto-body and another body shop down that road they seem good but couldn’t find any reviews from customers. I herd of a place hoffman automotive & collision but I dont know if there good anybody have pictures or personal experience with performance auto-body shops in buffalo. I’m also new to buffalo and dont really trust a lot of companies out here. I tried to somewhat search but really didn’t see any specific places thanks

I’ve been to Licata’s with my car. I have a tricky paint to match. The first spray of my bumper wasn’t perfect but they took it back in and fixed it after I pointed it out.

Licata’s has always treated me very well whatever the issue I’ve taken there. They used to be a forum sponsor/group member here and had a NYSpeed discount coupon, not sure if they still are involved with that or not. Shmidt’s is another reputable repair shop, they moved from Cheektowaga/Depew (the Transit and Broadway location) to West Seneca I believe.

Franks on Niagara Street painted my fender / bumper and my paint might be harder than Josh’s. No complaints.

Zeons in Lockport. They repainted the wife’s front bumper, hood and pass side rear quarter panel to fix some cracked paint last year.

Turnaround was fast, work was awesome, and I felt the price was very fair.

I need to get my hard top painted, as well as a new front lip/bumper (possibly), so I think I’ll be reaching out to Zeon’s.

I can couch vouch for this. That blue looks like it is not a easy color to work with because of the pearl in it.
