I had an excellent experience with Chilton Body Shop. Lester was very friendly and made the whole process easy for me. My car was repaired beautifully, and they even washed it—making it look just like new again. Overall, the service was outstanding, and I would highly recommend Chilton to anyone in need of body shop work for their car.

Such a great experience at Chilton! The manager was super kind and explained everything really well and the car looks amazing now! Thank you all!

My Experience

The old guy with gray hair and glasses is a scammer trying to get me to pay when the insurance already paid and he sent me an invoice stating I owe nothing and threatened to not release my car. I’m going to write all kinds of reviews on every social media about how horrible he is and not to take your car there and all my friends and family will post terrible reviews as well. That guy needs to learn how to treat people however Miguel was wonderful respectful and very helpful.

Lester is rude and a scammer tried to get me to pay even after the insurance paid and threatened to keep my car. Miguel was wonderful and respectful.

They did a great job. Sparkles just like new. Plus the owner has lived in the area a long time, like myself, so we had plenty to talk about. Very nice people there. Shout out to Sonny too.

Great service, great work, ok price. The price was quite reasonable actually. Only free would have made it great. lol But seriously, they did a really fantastic job! No complaints!
