Panel Beating & Panel Replacement

Traditional panel craft backed by modern equipment — reshaping steel and aluminium back to factory contours.

Panel beating is the heart of any real body shop, and it's a craft our technicians have spent decades mastering. Where a damaged wing, door skin or quarter panel can be saved, we reshape the metal back to its exact factory contour — preserving original panels and factory seams, which matters enormously on prestige and classic vehicles.

Where a panel is beyond economic repair, we replace it, using OEM panels where specified, with seam sealing and corrosion protection reinstated so the repair lasts as long as the rest of the car.

Our process

How we do it

We assess whether the panel can be economically saved, then either reshape it in situ or on the bench, or cut in a replacement. Repairs are primed, sealed and refinished in our low-bake oven so the result is invisible.
