Select Auto Body

The most, honest sincere body shop in all of the Valley. Thank you so much Sam Nunez, Bud Stock and the rest of the staff for always informing me updates on my car. ¹⁰⁄₁₀ service and ¹⁰⁄₁₀ loyal/​customer service.

I normally don’t leave reviews, but after the debacle I’ve been having with my car, Select Auto definitely deserves a review.
I was rear ended in a hit and run accident and after getting a quote from a dealership and getting the brush off, I found Select Auto Body. They have been absolutely amazing, especially during the insurance nightmare that I have been having. They got me my car back as soon as they could, and are still working on the other repairs on a time frame that works for me.
The work they’ve done so far is perfect and customer service wise they’re amazing. I’ll be coming back to get some other small things repaired and if I ever need big repairs I will go here and nowhere else. I HIGHLY recommend Select Auto Body.

If I could give them more than a 5 star I would. I went to Select Auto Body to get my S2K repaired after I got rear ended and talked to Bud and he was very friendly, sincere, knowledgeable, and informative. I left their place knowing that I am in good hands. I would definitely recommend Select Auto Body to anyone that need some body work on their cars and I would go to them again (crossing my fingers that I don’t get into an accident again) in a heartbeat!

I am now an avid fan of Select Auto Body and Sam and all of his fellow workers. Last week I noticed that there was dried white road paint on both front and rear wheel wells and exterior areas of my car. I had stopped at one body shop and was told they probably couldn’t get it off without stripping it down. German Auto (which I am also a fan of) sent me to Select. I drove in with no appointment and a wonderful man in the office went out to look at it. They said they would try a solvent to see if they could soften it. An hour and a half later they had it totally removed with no damage to the car! They are my heroes and I recommend this business without reservation! They have restored my faith in humanity.

Amazing quality work along with amazing customer service.
I accidentally swiped the back of my bumper on a metal pole but it was enough to take the paint off and left a small indentation on my Mercedes. After doing my research, I found these guys up on Unilocal and sure enough I drove away just as happy as the rest of these other Unilocalers. True skill and quality paint makes this place a no brainer for any paint repairs (not to mention the 2-​day turn around time I was given!). The paint was matched perfectly and was even told to bring my car back in a week or two just as a follow up to make sure no swirling shows up and buff if needed (…probably not needed). Shout out to Tammie for being very professional and knowledgeable. She really made my experience pleasant and followed up with phone calls to let me know how things were going. I will be bringing my car back next month to respray the small rock chips on the front end and apply a clear bra protective guard.

If you have the misfortune of needing a body shop, this is the only place to consider. They do amazing work and offer customer support unheard of these days. This is what a business should/​can be!

I recently got in my first car accident, my fault. Afterwords the insurance company declared my paid off ’02 Ford Explorer Limited TOTALED! I was now faced with adding another car payment (which we couldn’t afford) or what I preferred which was to just get my car fixed… The problem with keeping it was two parts (I learned). First, my title would be ‘Salvaged’ and would have no real value and be potentially uninsured… And second, if you do decide to keep a ‘Total Loss’ they pay you a lesser ‘Salvage Rate’. In my example, this looked like $ 4200 towards a new car or if we kept it they’d only give us $ 3600 — the biggest problem being the cost of repairs was $ 4900 — ouch!
Long story shorter… After that I came to Select Auto Body to get a second opinion. I spoke to Tammie at the front and Bud the Owner. They both reviewed my repair estimate and verified it to be honest and fair (even though it cost them my business) — WOW, that’s refreshing! Then to take it a step further, Tammie, a former Insurance person herself, educated me on that world. Then, without me asking she looked up my cars value because she felt the offer from my insurance was low. She then showed me it actually was. Then Bud, the owner, walked me through how to ‘fairly but firmly’ work with my insurance company. The result was the insurance company raised the value of my car over 50% higher than originally and then decided not to declare my car as totaled… AND THEY FIXED IT! This would have NEVER happened without Bud and Tammie’s help! Their honesty, selflessness, and support were (and are) greatly appreciated — THANK YOU!
Ryan & Family =)

These guys did an amazing job, and the work was completed on my 2016 model car, quickly! Looks good as new, I would definitely use them again in the future. Highly recommend!

Bud and his staff did an amazing job on my car. Looks better than before. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for top quality auto repair.

It’s too bad that I can only give them a 5! After doing a fair amount of research, we selected three body shops to interview.
The reality is that most body shops have similar costs of doing business, therefore all estimates should be similar.
All we wanted to know is who we wanted to do business with. After meeting with all 3, it was obvious who we were going to do business with. .Select Auto Body. It turned out it was a complete no brainer.
Select wanted our business, but didn’t NEED it. Having been in sales all my life, that makes a real difference to me.
You may not realize it, but when you sign an estimate, it really is a blank check. The reason for this is that all estimates have a phrase which says in effect that if further damage is found after starting the job, there likely will be further costs. In other words, you are almost signing away your (financial) life! This is both realistic and fair so long as the body shop is fair.
In our case the final bill was about 25% LESS than the estimate. While this likely is unusual, it did happen in our case.
Not a BTW, the job they did was phenomenal. They took a car that the insurance company, and turned it into a GEM!
Forget where you live. These guys are the best.

I had accidentally hit a pole while pulling into my work covered parking space, and after getting several quotes from different body shops, everyone agreed that my entire front bumper needed to be replaced, among other things. I went with Select Auto Body since they could fit me in the quickest, and I’m glad that I did!
I worked with Bernie throughout the whole process and he was very helpful. He always kept me informed, answered any questions that I had, and would call just to give me an update on the progress. My first visit to Select just to get a quote, Bernie asked if it was okay to take pictures of the damage just in case I decide to go with them, so that he could have it ready for the insurance company. It’s nice to see someone take the extra effort to make sure everything goes smoothly, when they didn’t even know if I’d end up being a customer or not.
My car was ready a day earlier than the estimated time frame, and looks brand new again! They went above and beyond to make sure everything on my car was fixed. Thanks for the good work and good customer service!

Just before I left to go to Jamaica I was involved in a hit and run in Walmart’s parking lot. Someone backed into my car and left some serious scratches on the rear bumper. One of my friends recommended this place to me, boasting about the good job they did on his truck after another place had screwed it up.
After returning from my trip, I got a quote from the infinity dealership and Select Auto. The owner of Select Auto, Bud, is very friendly and takes good care of his customers. I informed him that I wanted to try and stay below my deductible and he beat the dealership quote by $ 200.
I picked up my car today and the guys did an excellent job!!! The paint was perfectly matched and it only took the guys 3 days to complete the job which was mostly paint drying time.

I had them paint a side mirror for my Hyundai Sonata that I bought on Amazon for $ 49. Their charges were reasonable at $ 112 for the paint job. The Hyundai dealership in Tempe wanted $ 467 to do the job.
What I like about this place is that it is a family-​owned business. The owners are Larry and Bud and they work on site. They were very friendly. I will return for more work with my Mercedes.

I’ve never written a review for a company before. However, as my experience with Select Auto Body has been overwhelmingly pleasant, I have decided to. Bud & his team of people are professional, dedicated, honest, and overall pleasant people. They have gone above and beyond for my car’s need and kept me up to date the entire time.
I have been to many body shops, dealerships, and quick lube places before with my car, and unfortunately these other places seem to take advantage of those who are unknowing, young, and female. I have never felt as comfortable with a company giving me as estimate for a job and trusting their quality and integrity as I have with the team at Select Auto Body.
You really feel that these people care about you and your car, even notifying me that I should consider changing my tires very soon since they are wearing down.
These days great customer service is hard to come by — and Select Auto Body is truly a breath of fresh air!

A couple of weeks ago I was involved in a fender bender on Camelback and the I-​10. truck behind me was following too close and could not stop. I was a little apprehensive to automatically take the driver’s insurance suggestion for repair facility, but I am glad I did.
Select Auto was not only courteous, they followed through with their estimate and time completion. My car was ready when they said. Strong integrity and work ethic. I recommend their services to anyone in Phoenix.

What a great experience I had the other day at Select Auto Body. I knew if I took
my car to the dealer for a loose fender and front bumper repair, I probably would
have paid close to $ 1,500.
Bud the owner, took my car in the shop and popped in the fender and bumper, secured them, and is going to order a $ 90 part for the tray under the car.
I’m done!!!
How incredible is that?

Bud and his crew did excellent quality work on my Acura TL, they installed a OEM rear underbody spoiler and came out much better then planned. Labor rate is cheapest I could find hands down for great workmanship in PHX. Would return

This review is long overdue. I was in a hit and run a few months back. Unfortunately, I had to go through my insurance and pay a $ 500 deductible to get my car fixed. I found these guys on Unilocal and they more than lived up to their rating. Obviously being in a car accident is stressful, but they managed to make things go as smoothly as possible.
I told them that I didn’t have rental car coverage on my insurance and that I would be paying out of pocket for that. They said they would do what they could to get it done as quickly as possible. I dropped my car off on a Monday morning. It was done Tuesday evening. How awesome is that?! These guys are great. I hope I’m never in this situation again, but if I am, I wouldn’t hesitate to bring my car back here.

Just outstanding service and a renewal of the word Integrity. Since I caught them without a lot of customers, Bud and his team were able to get my door realigned and back to spec right there on the spot. Really easy to talk with and they were able to explain what needed to be done. I’d recommend these guys to anyone.

Unfortunately, I’ve had to visit Select twice in a year and half. Damn Phoenix drivers! If one more person hits this poor car, I will turn into the Hulk and kill them. Now that that’s out of the way —
On both occasions, Select staff were extremely friendly and helpful, particularly when guiding me through the insurance process, about which I knew nothing. My car looks excellent. They do not use aftermarket products and didn’t allow the other guy’s adjuster to try to sneak any in.
Select staff definitely go above and beyond the call. On both of my visits, they made minor repairs to my car that were unrelated to the accidents, just to be nice! They also washed and detailed the car, and returned my rental car for me. These little things went a long way to relieve my general stress about the situation.
I wouldn’t think twice about coming back or recommending them to anyone!
