Another one back to looking like it should.

This GMC came in with damage along the lower cab/rocker area. Our team repaired the damage, restored the body lines, and got it cleaned up and back on the road.

This Toyota came to us with damage stretching across both doors and into the rear wheel-opening area. What you see marked in yellow shows just how much repair work was needed.

A lot goes into making damage like this disappear — bodywork, prep, refinishing, reassembly and attention to the little details that make the finished repair look like it was never there. Before and After!

Another one ready to head home from LAVA Auto Body.

Another one back on the road!

This Honda Pilot came to us with damage along the side, including damage to both doors. Our team got to work repairing the damage, prepping it for paint, and getting everything looking right again.

From the damage to the paint booth to the finished result — it’s always great to see a job come together.

We appreciate our customers trusting LAVA Auto Body with their vehicles.
