Dent Removal & PDR

Paintless dent repair for dings and creases where the original finish is intact — faster, cleaner and paint-free.

Glass Replacement

Windshield and auto glass replacement handled in-house as part of the repair plan, not a separate errand.

Reliable towing brings your damaged vehicle safely to the nearest Network location of your choice.

The Repair Process

From First Call to Keys Back in Your Hand

Eight stages, documented at every step, so you always know where your vehicle stands.

  1. 01

    Tow & Intake

    After a collision we arrange towing to the nearest Network location of your choice. No appointment required — drive in or be towed in.

  2. 02

    Free Estimate

    An experienced estimator inspects the vehicle and enters every point of visible damage into our estimating system for a free, comprehensive quote.

  3. 03

    Teardown & Hidden Damage

    Collisions cause damage that can only be found once the vehicle is disassembled and the structure exposed. We document it and take it back to your insurer.

  4. 04

    Blueprinting

    The shop foreman marks the vehicle panel by panel — replace fender, repair door, remove and install molding — so the repair plan is unambiguous.

  5. 05

    Structural & Body Repair

    The technician who performed the teardown carries out the repair: frame straightening, panel replacement with OEM parts, aluminum work in a dedicated clean room.

  6. 06

    Prime, Refinish & Reassemble

    Bare metal is cleaned and primed, color is computer-matched and applied in layers with clear coat, then trim, glass, panels and electronics go back in and are reset.

  7. 07

    Quality Control & Road Test

    Our team reviews every repaired and refinished area against our standards, then road-tests the vehicle to confirm structural integrity and electronic function.

  8. 08

    Detail & Delivery

    The exterior is washed and polished, the interior cleaned, and your vehicle is handed back. Your insurance deductible is paid at pick-up.

Peace of Mind

A Lifetime Warranty on Workmanship

Network Auto Body warranties all workmanship on unibody, body and refinish work for as long as you own the vehicle. It’s transferable, and it’s honored at any Network Auto Body location.

What’s covered

  • Defects in workmanship on unibody, body and refinish work
  • Primer and paint adhesion failure
  • Peeling or blistering
  • Wrinkling
  • Loss of gloss or shine
  • Parts, for the duration of the manufacturer’s warranty

What’s not covered

  • Corrosion, nicks, chips and road damage
  • Damage caused by improper vehicle maintenance
  • Damage caused by unreasonable use of the vehicle

Most manufacturer paint warranties run three to five years or 36,000–60,000 miles. This one runs as long as the car is yours.

Good to Know

Collision Repair Questions, Answered

Do I need to schedule an appointment?

No. You do not need an appointment to bring your vehicle in for an estimate or to leave it for repairs. Come in any time Monday through Friday between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM.

Can I take my vehicle to the repair facility of my choice?

Yes. As an insured motorist you have the right to choose the repair facility. Your insurance company cannot refer or recommend a shop — commonly known as “steering” — unless you specifically ask for a referral. That’s the law.

Do I have to get more than one estimate?

No. By law you need only one estimate.

My insurance estimate seems low. Do I have to accept it?

An initial insurance estimate reflects visual inspection only. Additional parts and labor are expected once the vehicle is disassembled. Network Auto Body performs a thorough inspection and contacts your insurer directly about anything that needs to be added.

Can you arrange a rental car?

Yes. Network Auto Body uses Enterprise Rent-A-Car. They will pick you up from the shop and take you to their office for your rental, then collect you again once repairs are complete. A limited number of on-site loaners are also available.

Should I notify my insurance company before repairs start?

Yes. If you are going through an insurance company for the repairs, you need to notify them before work begins.

What is the difference between OEM and aftermarket parts?

OEM parts are Original Equipment Manufacturer parts — made by the manufacturer of your vehicle. Aftermarket parts are new parts manufactured by companies other than the vehicle manufacturer. Opt-OEM parts are not supplied by the vehicle manufacturer, may be blemished, and carry no manufacturer warranty. Network Auto Body writes damage reports using OEM parts.

To whom do I pay my deductible?

Your deductible is paid to Network Auto Body when you pick up your vehicle.

How soon after pick-up can I wash my car?

If you choose to, you may wash your vehicle the same day you pick it up.

Will collision repair void my BMW factory warranty?

Not when the repair is performed to manufacturer standards with genuine parts. Network Auto Body is a manufacturer-certified repair center that follows factory repair procedures and uses OEM parts, which is precisely why Century West BMW recommends them.
