This is the best auto body shop that I've been to and the only that provides the superior customer service. When I had no knowledge about the car process and was going through a lot after my accident, Ramel who mainly works at the front desk took his time to help me and was incredibly patient with my needs. I highly recommend this place to anyone!

We have taken several of our family and friends' cars to Spotlite. Mike and Rommel have been great, and their work has been impeccable. Highly recommended.

Mike and his team are fantastic. I have been taking my vehicles there for many years - each time I come in I am treated fantastically. The work is amazing and it is no wonder why so many dealers contract out to them. I hope I never have to bring another car in for work - but if and when my choice is always Spotlite!

I've brought my cars to Spotlite Collision in Vancouver for the last 13 years and have had great service every time! They are a hard working family owned and operated business that takes care of their clients. I recommend them for any body repair work, or vehicle painting, even window replacements for any car or truck.

Had a great experience with Spotlite, they went over and above. Rommel's service was caring and the paint job was excellent. It was so nice to get into the car and discover that the inside had been cleaned. I will definitely go back and will recommend to anyone needing this kind of service.

Iv been using spotlight for over 22 years. On every occasion they do a stunning repair job great courtesy cars and nice staff. The recently just fixed our Mercedes work van and did a stunning job. It was brand new and they matched and fixed the bumper without even noticing any colour change. Keep up the great work.

Came in for a simple side mirror repair after a hit and run. Every single person I talked to (4 or 5 employees) were kind, courteous, and had me, the client’s, best interest in mind. I hope my car stays pristine, but if anything happens I’ll be going back to Spotlite without a second thought.

Ask for Rommel!!!! One of the most dedicated auto body shop staff I've ever dealth with since alotta terrible ones at terrible shop (considering there are always endless supply of ppl needing their car fixed) in this town. All started when I got there 5 min.s before closing to start my job and he was about to close shop, he went ahead and turn his computer back on to log me in and got me a appointment on the spot.

I had a great experience with Spotlite Collision. It was my first time getting my vehicle repaired so I didn’t know what to expect but Rommel made the entire process easy from the moment I arrived. The Spotlite Collision team did an amazing job with the repairs and the paint job was excellent. Everyone I spoke to was extremely helpful, professional and friendly. They also get extra points for detailing the interior of my car. Highly recommend this shop for all of your European auto body needs!

Very honest and professional people. I love how they never pressure you into spending on things that are not needed in your car. They genuinely tried to help me by giving me solutions that fit my budget. Mike is great and is very knowledgeable. Service was really good , that is why I wanted to post this review.

Excellent service! My sunroof shattered, the first glass place I took it too seemed like they didn't know how to go about the job, told me they didn't know how long it would be, and I never heard from them again. Went to Spotlite, I had a quote within minutes, and a new roof in less than two weeks. Courtesy car was new and immaculate, and my car had been cleaned at no additional cost when I got it back. They did their best to get me the best value for the repair, and quickly, I couldn't have asked for more!

I got into an unfortunate accident that left my Alfa needing a new bumper, paint job and steering and suspension work. Rommel was very reassuring and him and his team did an excellent job. The car feels as if it's new. He was also very patient with my follow up calls. Overall, I am glad I took my car here.

Have taken all my family's vehicles here for the past 15 years. They really seem to care and stand behind the work they do. Had some minor bubble and peel start to form in the clearcoat a couple years after a repair and no problem getting it fixed. Not really their fault, but unfortunately their problem. The environmental protection movement has made car paint change chemistry (to avoid certain solvents that worked MUCH better) in favour of 'water based' paints. We live in Vancouver and our AIR is water based for half the year so, how's that supposed to work!?!

Some of the best men and women in the industry! The Service and quality of work from their shop is top notch at Spotlite! You can tell this is a family owned and ran Business just by the way spotlite treats the customers. Service and quality that is rare now a days, support your local Business owners and use SPOTLITE COLLISION 10/10 You can see the difference quality makes!

Unfortunately, my car had a collision and its front bumpers and fender molding got dents, so I brought my car to Spotlite Collision. They were very kind and welcomed me warmly. Their work was awesome and very fast. Also, they gave me clear explanations when I asked questions about the car repair. I am very glad that my car looks like new again. I will definitely come back here if my car needed a repair again in the future. Thank you very much!

I brought my car in for an estimate after a collision, after 20 mins, they returned my car fixed. They required no parts—their team managed to reverse the dents, pop out the fender & repair the gaping side & …. then refused to charge me! Extremely professional well-spoken staff & clean, cool, comfortable waiting room. I’ve lived in Vancouver my entire life & dealt with countless autobody shops, this one is the best.

My family and I were so happy with our Spotlite experience. First, they were really nice, and helpful, when booking an appointment. Secondly they offered me their own company minivan or Rogue as a courtesy car. A vehicle this size was needed to accommodate our family of 5 (a few carseats), but in the past a different body shop required going through a car rental agency, as well as paying an upgrade fee for a larger vehicle. Thirdly, I asked to pay for a little scratch on my bumper to be painted while they were completing the ICBC claim, and they said they were happy to do that bit for free. Finally, they got the work done within a day or 2, when previously it had taken another body shop a week. So they are very good at what they do, make it very easy to get the work done, and are just a wonderful, honest, salt of the earth family run business. Oh, and they gave me a Spotlite reusable grocery bag as a treat when I left :)

I cannot recommend this business enough. They have truly gone above and beyond in their customer service and care. I have taken my car here both times it needed repairs after an accident and will be using them for any future issues! Highly recommend.

Always great service and work. Came in for a claim that required paint and body work, and the paint matching was outstanding. They also detailed the car before returning, which is a plus, and provided a loaner while they did the work. Second visit to this location, and haven't had a bad experience.

Brad Kasselman

00:32 07 Dec 22

Fantastic experience working on an ICBC claim with Spotlite. They were thorough, responsive, and helped in all necessary areas. We often are quick to complain about bad service, but this service was terrific and deserves to be written about accordingly. Thank you Mike and team for excellent service!

Nick Strong

Had my vehicle there several times over the years and they really took the pressure off of me and my car looked perfect when I picked it up and they provided a courtesy car for me

I walked in to Spotlite Collision for an inquiry. The receptionist welcomed me immediately and directed me to an estimator. We walked to my vehicle, he evaluated it and returned to his office. I was given a quote with availability at the time. Very professional.

I was refereed by VW and my issues (front bumper and fender) were dealt with in the most professional, helpful and courteous manner. Thanks to Mike and everyone at the shop.

Mike and his team have been looking after all of my vehicles for over 15 years. Their quality of work is consistently top tier. Everyone I know or come across that needs any sort of body work gets sent their way with no hesitation and all become clients for life. There’s a reason why they’re booked out for months sometimes. Definitely worth the wait rather than “trying out” another shop.

My Ford F150 Lightning was involved in an Accident and my Ford Dealer recommended Spotlite as a Ford Authorized Repair centre. They have been outstanding for service and quality of work done. Their service after the fact is exceptional! I had a problem with my tailgate and they have gone above and beyond my expectations to get me sorted out! I will recommend Spotlite Collision to all if my friends and clients!

I cannot speak highly enough about the exceptional service provided by Spotlite Car Repair Shop. Having taken my car there three times now, I can confidently say that they consistently go above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. Not only do they fix the issues promptly and efficiently, but every time I pick up my car, it looks better than when I dropped it off. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellence truly set them apart. What truly impresses me, however, is their willingness to go the extra mile to help customers. Whether it's accommodating last-minute appointments or providing honest advice, the team at Spotlite Car Repair Shop always delivers top-notch service with a smile. If you're looking for a car repair shop that genuinely cares about its customers and their vehicles, look no further than Spotlite Car Repair Shop. They have earned my trust and loyalty, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of automotive services.

Mike and the team were the most professional body shop I've ever experienced. Hands down one of the best in the city and the awards and plaques by the front desk was proof of it. The bumper needed to be replaced and the colour match was identical along with the part. I highly recommend this place!

Bryan Kaplan

I had a great experience at Spotlite Collision. The entire team was friendly and professional across the board. The repair was done quickly and looks perfect. Highly recommend!

I have nothing but utmost respect for Mike and Tanya, and their crew at Spotlite Collision - nothing but the utmost respect. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, I attach here before- and after-pictures. I had two accidents on my car: One self-inflicted and the other due to someone hitting my car while being parked. I paid for the first job, and ICBC covered the second job. Mike gave me an excellent price for fixing my self-inflicted accident on the driver's door - excellent price. How do I know it is excellent? Because I shopped around and other people gave me higher price without even offering me a courtesy car! As you can see from the after-pictures; the car is in a pristine state. What is more is that there was some other scratches on the passenger side of the car, and Mike and Tanya and their crew at Spotlite Collision surprised me by painting these scratches on the passenger side. Tanya even called me on a Sunday (one day before my Monday appointment) to confirm our appointment. I also had a very elegant brand-new Toyota courtesy car to drive which was extremely clean and detailed. Fast forward one week, and I’m due to pick my car. My car was washed and detailed inside and outside. Besides the material service, Mike and Tanya are some of the most decent people you would feel comfortable talking to. They are professionals. And yes, I was offered a small light torch as a gift when I picked my car. Honestly, I’m the one supposed to offer the gift and not get the gift. As a side note, I’m a project manager, and I can get as fussy and picky as it gets. However, I have a practical side too. Some comments here on Google pertaining to Spotlite Collision will exaggerate the level of perfection a car should possess following being serviced by a body shop. I disagree with these comments. Let us be honest, any car that has been on the road for two or more years will never be as pristine as a new car that is just out of the factory. Asking any body shop to get a car back to its pristine state seamlessly is mostly a waste of time. I do advocate perfection, but not extreme perfection. The same applies to my tenant improvements or renovation jobs, I expect perfection but not super perfection from the trades! All in all, if you want to have friends for life when it comes to cars, please go ahead and introduce yourself to Mike and Tanya. Both of them are a pleasure to deal with!

My car has not been fixed by Spotlite yet but if the service that I have experienced so far is anything to go by, I know I will be extremely satisfied. Sophia and Mike, the owner, went above and beyond to assist after I was rear ended. They worked with VW on main so seamlessly. Thank you Spotlite for making a very emotional and stressful day much easier.

Very friendly staff and good technicians. I chose to go here because another place I went to get a quote at had staff that was rude and dismissive, but here everyone was very nice and they did a great job fixing the scratches and dents. They even polished up some other things around my car without me asking them to, free of charge. Now that is excellent service. Big thanks to everyone at Spotlite!
