Auto Body Shop for Marina del Rey, CA
Auto body shop for Marina del Rey — twenty minutes down Lincoln
The Body Shop Collision Repair is a family-owned shop at 12911 Cerise Ave in Hawthorne, about eight miles from Admiralty Way. Lincoln Boulevard runs most of the way, or the 90 to the 405 if the surface streets are slow. We repair cars and motorcycles, we accept all insurance companies, and the estimate is free.
Damage we see most often on Marina del Rey cars
The marina combines two hard things for paintwork: tight parking and salt air. Cars living in the subterranean garages of the towers along Via Marina and Admiralty Way pick up column scrapes, kerbed wheels and door dings; cars towing or loading near the slips collect hitch scuffs, tailgate dents and scratched rear bumpers. On top of that, everything within sight of the water corrodes quickly once the paint is broken, so a scratch that looks trivial in June is a rust line by winter. We seal and blend rather than patch, for exactly that reason.

Yes. Marina del Rey is roughly eight miles from the shop at 12911 Cerise Ave in Hawthorne, about twenty minutes down Lincoln Boulevard.

Do you work with my insurance company?

My insurer suggested a network shop. Can I still choose you?
Yes. In California the choice of repair facility belongs to the vehicle owner. Your insurer can recommend, but the decision is yours and the claim stays valid.
My car lives in salt air by the water. Does that change the repair?
It changes how carefully the repair has to be sealed. Bare metal and untreated chips corrode fast near the marina, so edges and seams get proper preparation and sealing before paint.
