Five minutes from home

The shop is about five minutes from Hancock Park. That's close enough to drop the car off in the morning and have someone pick you up, and close enough that coming back with a question isn't a hassle.

The owner is Stan Suh. We've been on the same corner of Western since 1988, so some of your neighbors have probably had their cars here, maybe more than once.

BMW, Mercedes, Porsche and the rest

Hancock Park drives a lot of BMWs, Porsches and Mercedes, and we handle all of them. We use OEM parts, and our techs are aluminum trained for the aluminum panels and structure on BMW and Audi. The shop is I-CAR Gold Class.

Paint is where a repair on a dark German car either shows or disappears. We match the color to the car's original code and blend it into the panels next to the repair, so the door and the fender look the same in your driveway and in the sun.

If you want to keep that paint looking new afterward, we also apply Peel Clear, a spray-on paint protection film.

Small jobs and mechanical work

You don't need a big accident to come see us. We repaint scuffed bumpers, replace broken windows and handle light mechanical work like alignments, brakes, suspension, AC and oil changes. If you're not sure whether something is worth fixing, text a photo to (310) 801-2929 and ask. The estimate is free.

On insurance claims with rental coverage, the rental car is free while yours is here. We work with Enterprise and Joy Rental Car.
