Auto body shop · Palmetto Bay, FL
Auto body shop for Palmetto Bay
Palmetto Bay doesn't have many independent body shops of its own, so most repairs mean a drive up to Kendall or a dealer. Automotive World Collision Center is the other direction and closer: straight down US-1 from Coral Reef Drive or SW 168th St to SW 188th St in Cutler Bay, about ten minutes from the Village. Family-owned, 5.0 stars across 28 Google reviews, and the estimate is free.
Old Cutler Road, Coral Reef Drive, and the school pick-up lines around Palmetto Bay produce a predictable mix of damage — bumper scrapes, parking-lot dents, mirror hits, and the rear-end collisions that come with US-1 traffic. We repair all of it: dents pulled or panels replaced, bumpers repaired or swapped, and every repair refinished to an exact factory color match so nothing looks touched.
If the other driver's insurer is involved, remember that in Florida you choose the shop, not the insurance company. We handle the claim from the first estimate through any supplement for hidden damage, and we tell you honestly when replacing beats repairing.
