Testimonials

On 4/10/2026 Mariano B. had this to say:
We had a previous experience with "Waukegan & Gurnee Auto Body " on a 14-year-old Toyota Matrix XR which was rear-ended. Not only was it fixed, it ran better than before it was in an accident! Tom Vepley won't overcharge like the other auto body shops. He will give it to you straight and everything will be explained to you. Tom Vepley will take care of you;

On 4/5/2026 Katherine had this to say:
I had a great experience with this body shop after my car was hit at an intersection and the trunk was damaged. From beginning to end, the team was professional, honest, and caring. They clearly explained the repair process and the repairs were completed exactly as estimated. The quality of the work was excellent — the trunk looks as good as new. Our insurance company recognized them immediately and communication between the insurance company and the body shop went very smoothly and easy on me. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with both the service and the results. I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone needing reliable and high-quality auto body repairs.

I brought in a damaged carbon fiber hood. It had damaged weaves, missing parts of clearcoat, and even a broken part of a leading edge. They did an amazing job repairing it all and getting it primed for paint. Will definitely keep them in mind for other future body repairs. Testimonial written by Jay on this site.
