Testimonials:

Dear Mike:
I just wanted to thank you for doing such a great job on our last two car "boo-boos". You were able to perfectly match an "unmatchable" color, according to Mercedes of Greenwich, on my wife's 5-year-old, slightly sun-faded, bright red Mercedes 230 SLK convertible. Good trick!
The Honda wagon was a more serious job requiring some body work in addition to the metallic flake blue with clearcoat paint, and that too turned out great.
I am sorry to report we will have to use your services again in the near future as the Lexus RX 330 has just picked up a scratch, but at least we know she will be in capable hands.
If you need a referal, please don't hesitate to have someone call me.
Thanks,
Rick B.

Mike Grant and his guys have been keeping our cars looking good for years. Not only do they do outstanding work, dealing with Shippan AutoBody is a genuine pleasure. If only every business operated the way Mike's does....Jon Saunders

I had my car repaired at Shippan Auto Body , and I have to say it was the most pleasant experience i could have imagined in what I was fearing would be the most horrible experience. They came and picked up my car at my house , They arranged the rental car for me , They even dealt with my insurance company from start to finish. They were finished with my car in 3 days and the car looked great. They even washed the car when they were done. I would reccomend this facility to anyone who wants a hassle free auto repair experience. Sincerely , Katherine B.

Lifetime Guartantee on all work.
You can email Mike for an appointment though Ask the Experts...but no appointment necessary.
They deal with the insurance companies so you don't have to!
