Good Body Shop in NJ

[imsachin]

So, my 2015 Red MS was sideswiped yesterday, pretty bad damage to both door shells on the driver's side and right rear quarter panel. The doors both work though. This is in North NJ.

Anybody have recommendations on a good body shop? I have an appointment with a Paramus SC on the 17th for an estimate but wanted to shop around.

I used Mountain View Auto in Wayne. They did a great job and have a lot of experience with Teslas.

I will second @Shateam recommendation. I used Mt View last year for my X and the work was done perfectly. Only hassle was waiting months for parts but my car was driveable. Ask for Mike Daniel and tell him the Devils Fan with the X recommended them.

Boonton Auto Body is excellent. The only place I trust to work on my Classic 300ZX, my GTR, and my Tesla if need be.

Sure, if you want to spend $20k on a $4k repair (serious). And wait months for parts (also serious). Bring it to the official Tesla Body Shop in Queens. They are absolutely amazing. They get parts quickly and they know Tesla better than anyone else. Flawless repair on my lift-gate and rear bumper, and they gave me Uber credit for free.

Thank You, All! I have an appointment with Mountain View and also the Tesla SC in Paramus. Queens is too far for me, but if I have to I will make the trek.

Paramus isn't able to do body repair. Mountain View will take months just an fyi

So, Paramus isn't equipped to do body repair, as you indicated, even though the app let me make an appt there. Queens had a long lead time. I looked at several "Tesla Certified" in NNJ and decided to go with Mountain View. My rear door needed to be replaced, front door fixed, read quarter panel fixed and all three painted. Mountain View turned it around in 2 weeks. Promised a date the day I dropped it off and 2 weeks later, it was ready. They have a Enterprise rental on site so picking up a rental there and dropping it off when the car was ready was super convenient. Their estimate was also comparable to other shops in the area.

I'm happy with them and would recommend them highly. They washed and vaccumed it before delivery and it came out looking like brand new.

Would second MountainView. I live in Wayne and they have been around almost 100 years. Just brought my wife's Cadillac there for some work and it came out real nice. Took 8 days to complete about $5k of non-insurance work, which I found to be a pretty reasonable on price and turnaround time.
