My car got hit and I was in need of my car repaired. I wasn't sure where to go since the insurance place didn't give me much options but I searched up auto body shops and gave this place a shot! Wow!! I am amazed at their professionalism and work! My car came out looking brand new! They even washed my car on the outside and cleaned the interior as well! Definitely recommend!! Five stars!!

These guys are super knowledgeable on everything auto body related. They are also super helpful and understanding as they dug back a few years just to get some pictures on how a certain previous project was done. Highly Highly recommend!

Had my first collision. Decided to take my vehicle to palladium as I saw the good reviews on Yelp and google. Drove from San Jose and all I can say it was worth the drive and wait. Palladium made the process. Easy and did great work and it's work speaks for itself. Highly recommend if you ever get into a collision.

I first went to Palladium Auto Body with one of my friends so he could get his cars fenders painted and fitted. We were both skeptical at first as neither of us had been to a body shop before and have been warned that many shops will try to scam customers for more money. This was not the case at Palladium! The owner, Nick, made sure to get my friends fenders properly aligned and fitted to OEM spec. On top of that, Nick is a great guy and always goes the extra mile to get everything fitting perfectly. The work speaks for itself. When my families RAV4 got rear ended, it was a no brainer where I was

I took my 2015 Tesla to Palladium for repair in May of this year. The damage was a swipe on the left side that needed a front left fender replacement, the front door skin replacement, and the back quarter panel repair. The left rear door did not need any repairs.
After the repair was completed and drove it home, the car was exhibiting so many noises that was unbelievable, noises that were not there prior to dropping the car off to them for repair. A 2015 Tesla Model S sounded like a1971 Pinto.
Rubber gasket hanging down from underneath the car where they worked on that I brought up to Nick&apos

I had what I thought was the simplest project to do and that was to have my grey fog light bezels on my 2019 GMC AT4 blacked out. Went to several places to inquire about wrapping or painting and no shop would accept the job because it wasn't collision or insurance related, it wasn't worth it to them. After almost giving up, I came across Palladium Auto Body and spoke with Nico (owner) and was told they could and would paint my bezels. The bezel were painted blacked and they came out GREAT. Thank you Nico and the team at Palladium and if i ever need any other work done, you have my business.

Awesome paint job they did on my bumper. I like to say better than factory finish but then it makes it sound like it wont blend in with a factory car. The bumper was spotless even after the repair to my custom work.
I will be back to ask for more customizations in the future. Paint matching yellow isnt easy so I have to be picky who i take my car to.

Today wasn't so bad after all.. started my day on a bad note when on my way to work a truck decided to recklessly cut me off on the freeway which caused a 2x4 wood to fly out of his truck bed and come flying at the hood of my car. Securing your load and being a decent driver are topics for another day so I won't dive into them...
I contacted my insurance and was told to get an estimate of the damage before moving forward. I hop on Yelp and look for the nearest body shop which led me to Palladium Auto Body which was ever so conveniently located nearby.
I gave them a call and even though

I recently had my car keyed at a Taco Bell parking lot and felt as if I had the worst luck with my brand new car. But as something bad happens, I had the luck of meeting Nick and finding his car shop.
I showed him the car scratches on my door and asked him for his honest opinion about the repair. He was very honest about how minimal work it needs and suggested that he was willing to try to buff it out for me so it is less noticeable. Nick was unlike the other shops who quickly told me repaint the whole door and claim insurance. Some had offered to buff also but quoted high prices.
I cannot thank

It doesn't get any better than this. I purchased fiber glass parts online from a reputable website, however, the part came in really messed up, because their molding isn't accurate; ie. part didn't fit me car. I brought my fiber glass fender parts that came in the mail to Palladium Auto Body: not too great looking straight out the box. The result is AMAZING after all is done by these guys here!
i got a few other shop in the Bay Area chances too quote me for fiber glass work, most of them declined and said they don't even want to touch it, but the guys here were able to mold

Thanks to the boys at Palladium my baby is all nice and shiny again. Earlier in March I went to Santana Row for dinner and another car backed into my R8 (in seemingly slow motion!). The damage wasn't serious, just a couple of scratches, but obviously it bothered me a lot since my car was otherwise perfect. I met Nick at the Cars & Coffee event on Treasure Island earlier this year and decided to give him a call. He scheduled me in, set me up with a rental and called 72 hours later saying that the car was ready. They are efficient and do high quality work. If you want you car done right come to Palladium

I was referred to Nikita by a friend and boy am I happy that I went with the recommendation.
It was my first time getting auto repair work done on my baby and I was petrified! Nikita handled the whole situation from start to finish and walked me through the process. He took care of dealing with the insurance companies to handling the rental pick up and drop off so it was convenient and quick! Not only was the service exceptional but the quality of craftsmanship for the repair itself was beautiful!! I couldn't be more happy and my car looks almost brand new! Go with Palladium you will be a

One of the things I really loved about Palladium Auto Body is they are open Saturdays. I was looking at different body shops around the Bay Area prior to taking my vehicle here and I'm really glad I found Palladium. All I got to say is Nick and Dave are really amazing people!! From the moment to taking my vehicle in they were very friendly, honest, and upfront to what needed to be done to ensure the work is accomplished the way I wanted.
What did I have done on my vehicle? I bought all the decals online which you see in the photos posted here. And I also had the spoiler I got at Amazon
