Door Repair & Replacement
A modern door may involve the outer panel, hinges, latch, glass, wiring, trim, and side-impact components. Request an inspection and written repair plan.
Door damage can affect the outer panel, shell, hinges, latch, glass, wiring, trim, and side-impact components. The estimate should identify what will be repaired, replaced, transferred, and tested.

Questions
Common questions
What if a door will not close after an accident?
Do not force it. The cause may involve the hinge, latch, shell, adjacent structure, or alignment. Request an inspection before driving or authorizing repair.
Do you replace the whole door or just the skin?
Whichever the damage calls for. Skins are re-skinned on the original shell when it's sound; full replacement when it isn't.
Does door replacement include the electronics?
Yes — windows, locks, speakers, and wiring are transferred and tested before delivery.

…My car is metallic white, which is a very difficult color to match perfectly — but they absolutely nailed it. The paint match is flawless. It looks completely natural, and you would never be able to tell the car had any damage or repaint done. The finish blends perfectly with the original factory paint. They were extremely professional, very fair with pricing, and most importantly — on time. Everything was completed exactly when they promised. The entire team was friendly, honest, and great to work with. From quality to communication to timing, I'm 100% satisfied. I highly recommend F1 Collision to anyone who wants their car repaired the right way.

Ryan is very helpful, he handled my claim professionally, I was expecting to get my car back in 1 month but he got it done a little more than 2 weeks. Strongly recommend bodyshop. Thank you Ryan!

Rayan was a great help from start to finish. Brought in my BMW 330i with major damages to the front bumper and front rim. He gave me a great a price for the entire job. He also completed the entire project in less than a week. I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone. Thank you again Rayan for the amazing work.
