Hi all,

My wife was involved in a car accident in which someone rear ended her. Now, I'm looking for recommendations for a good reputable shop in the Orlando area. Also I'll like to know of any shop that I should stay away from. Thank you in advance!

And, the wife is not doing so well. She has been in treatment for back and neck pain since the accident.

Try Samules Auto Body in Sanford, he does the best work....
Painted the front of my AM TL, it matches perfect. Also did a lot of work on my previous cars. Brad is the owner.

^ They take their time and do the work the right way! These guys do top notch work and take pride in it! For example someone I know had their rear bumper redone there. They took the time and taped over all the factory markings including the VIN sticker and painted the whole bumper and carefully took off the tape and sanded the surrounding paint so you couldn't even tell it had been refinished! And all of that too for no additional money, just what the insurance company computer spit out at them!

Is this Samuels Boby Shop phone number by any chance (407) 321-1438? I just want to be sure that's the one as I'll like to go to their shop and check their work out before taking any decision as I'll be checking a shop recommended by Mafyoso too down in Kissimmee.

sorry to hear that-My 06 tsx was rear-ended about two months ago. Went to a body shop recommended by our car insurance co. The other driver insurance was very good. I called them to start the claim. They had their adjuster call me that afternoon. Provided me with a rental car while my car was being repaired. They sent me a check for the amount. The body shop found more damage so the insurance co. was sending them a check to cover the additional expense. The body shop did an excellent job. Hope everything works out for you. OH-I received about 50 lawyer letters- Luckily I feel great-no pains. It was $1,600.00 worth of damage.

Sorry to hear about your wife. Hope she's better real soon.....

That is the correct contact info. Ask for Brad, he is the owner who I have known for a long time. He has tons of pics of the work they have performed, again they are a top notch shop.

Tell Brad that Dan with the gun-metal TL sent you over.....

I'm glad you had a happy ending! In my case I took the SUV to a shop recommended by insurance which did a poor repair job. Now, I'm looking for a good shop to fix their mess and ofcourse insurance will cover the tap but its frustrating having to deal with all this bullshit when not at fault! I just want my vehicle to be the same way it was 10 seconds before the accident! I don't think that's too much to ask!!!

YZ450

Thank you!!! me too!!!! if you know what I mean!!! hahaha

Again, thank you!!! I'll try to stop by early next week as they don't open Saturdays.

Sorry to hear that. The place we took it to has pictures showing the before and after on the work they have done. They also guarantee their work. IfI am not happy with the work in a few months-they told me to bring it and back and they would fix it.

When i was there in 99-03 i took my s2000 to samuals auto in Sanford. He is great. Even painted my rims volk gm and installed. A friend worked there. I can't even say if he is still open. Look him up.

Im also another member who likes Samuels auto as well. My car has been for a bit getting a complete respray since the entire car got keyed. Brad is very easy to work with and will get the job done right. The couple of the times that I stopped to check out the progress I was really pleased with the detail they put into their work. Ill hopefully be getting my car back early next week.

Hey man, I was @ Samuel's today and saw your car. It's looking awesome! He's going to take my wife SUV the week after next.
