Wayne at Southern Tire & Hubcap outsources paint and body to classic auto body (Leon is the owner). Leon is a nice guy, but he's team does an awful job. I have a black car and know it's hard to paint; however, the insurance paid a premium to get the work done. Paid extra to remove the door handles, rubber molding, etc... I received my car back and I had 41 imperfections (only had the passenger side done: door and quarter panels). There was blistering from not removing the molding which we paid for, runs, orange peeling, dirt under the clear coat, and dimples. Leon was very understandable and said I could bring it in and they would fix it. Keep in mind it's a two hour round trip for myself. He did pay for my rental car; however, did not fix all of the imperfections. There are still drips, dimples, runs, and can clearly see the swirls where his team wet sanded it (or whatever they did) It looks awful and I'm very disappointed. Wayne stated when insurance called he would only get my vehicle if he was able to replace the tires & rims & paint/body.....Seems odd but Geico said he was an approved place and I trusted him. Wayne did a great job with my tires and rims; however, his partnership with Leon at Classic Auto Body isn't right and my car isn't perfect after the insurance paid premium price to get it back to perfect.
The guy spent zero time actually looking at my car or listening to what I was concerned about and completely low balled the estimate. Which doesn't sound like a bad thing but when dealing with an insurance claim it's not so good.
My buddy unfortunately took his mirror off on his brand new truck and took it to these guys to repair it. The job was done quickly and reasonable and the returned it better than before as they color matched the black mirror to the red truck.
Guess they do alright work.i dont know..never had my truck there..
