Advanced Auto Center

My car recently had a tussle with a pole (the pole’s fault!!) and seeing the front bumper hanging off completely freaked me out because this is and was my first accident. My family’s mechanic only deals with engines, so he referred us to Gaby. I was highly distressed during our initial consultation but Gaby was very professional and patient. He got us a quote right away after calling his wholesale contact and gave us various payment options as well as walked me through the claims process. Gaby worked with my schedule and had the car ready in the time he’d said it would be. He even took pictures while he worked on my car and sent them to me! I’m very satisfied with the end result. She looks better than brand new, thanks to the complimentary buffing and detailing! So glad he was the one to fix her up. I’m not planning on getting into any further accidents (knock on wood!!) but if I do, Gaby’s my go-​to body shop person from now on!

I was in a car accident 3 weeks ago. I decided to try Advanced Auto Center in Stanton based on other Unilocal reviews. I cant tell you how happy I am. Gaby is such a kind honest person. He was more than willing to go out of his way to help me out as much as he could. Even offered his own car if I needed it. He gave me my insurance estimates and even though my cheap insurance covered only refurbished parts in most instances Gaby went with new parts, which came out of his own pocket. He gave me copies of everything to show me what was allowed and what he decided to go with based on past experiences with refurbished parts not fitting properly. But wait, it gets better my 2016 Mazda 6 looks brand new again! The paint job and body work is beautiful. He finished in 1 week. And I am completely blown away on how great it looks. Gaby took the time to have my car detailed inside and out. He is a true gem and I would refer anyone to get work done there. I’m truly blessed.

Was told late last night that someone hit my car. Went outside, and saw this huge dent and scratch. Someone hit my car, right in front of my house, then ran. My insurance deductible is slightly high so I was nervous about calling to place a claim. Panicked, I started searching on Unilocal for auto body shops, and finally found Advanced Auto.
I called Gaby Costea this morning around 9 am, and he was so friendly and patient while listening to my predicament. He told me to bring my car in immediately so that he could hopefully get it back to me the same day. I was so excited at the prospect of not having to be without my car for an extended period of time, I grabbed my keys and drove right over.
The parking around the building is slightly confusing, but an employee of Advanced Auto came out and told me to drive around to the front of the building. He then assisted me to the waiting area while I waited for Gaby. I was only waiting a few minutes, and in walked Gaby, with a kind and gentle smile, and asked me to show him the problem. I explained that I had a ridiculous deductible and I was hoping I would be able to get my bumper fixed without having to pay so much, since I am not able to afford very much. Gaby told me that he would be able to fix my bumper, not a problem, and it would be like a brand new bumper and ready for me by 1 pm. On top of all of this, the cost was much lower than my deductible and Mr. Costea offered me a car to drive home while I waited. I left feeling happy, relieved, and knew that I was in good hands.
A little after 1 I hadn’t heard from Gaby, so I called. He answered quickly and explained that he decided to wash my car, then clean and vacuum the inside, and that’s what took a little longer, but he then told me to head on over to pick up my car. I pulled up and saw my car, the bumper looked practically new. I was amazed and so happy. Gaby explained what they did, and made sure I was happy with the job. I am more than happy with Gaby and the work from the shop.
If you need a trustworthy auto body shop, with amazing employees and a kindhearted owner, then please stop by and see Gaby at Advanced Auto.

Words cannot express how grateful we are to have found out about this place. We had used another auto body shop in the past but we were referred to Gaby at Advanced Auto Center and Body by a trustworthy friend. We couldn’t have asked for a better body shop. From the first phone call with Gaby we felt like we were in good hands. He not only helped us through the claims process but provided top quality craftsmanship and attention to detail. We were amazed at how immaculate our car looked inside and out. It looked like a brand new car. As if the workmanship wasn’t enough, we were equally as impressed with the timeframe of the repairs. It was ready in exactly the time Gaby said it would be. We have no need to look for another body shop again, we are customers for life!

Wow!!! This place is exceptional ! I spoke with gaby when I first got into my car accident. He was far different than the other body shops I had spoken with. He really knew cars and he was extremely particular on how he would fix everything. Gaby was knowledgable but I could also tell he genuinely cares about his customers. When I got my car back I was in shock! It was so beautiful he had gone above and beyond. Not only was my car in better shape then when I bought it he had also buffed out every scratch I had and had the whole thing detailed ! It is beautiful!!! Thank you so much gaby ! You do beautiful work and you TRULY care! I want everyone I know to go here!

Just have my car back from repair, it look like new again. Thanks for the excellent job from the team at Advanced Auto. Gaby is a very trust worthy and honest friend, and he help me to contact the inurance, the adjuster and took care of all the detail so I do not have to worry. I have him repaired both of my cars, and they have done a top notch job. He also has the best price compare to the bigger body shop arround my area. Would recomment him to anyone who need bodyworks and insurance claim!

I was tboned at a blind left intersection. Gaby fixed the damages in a very short time. My car looks brand new. He even detailed my whole car at no additional charge!

Gaby was such an incredible help. He went above and beyond with my car and I was truly grateful to have found him. My car looks great after I had hit the front bumper against the wall. The damage was pretty ugly but Gaby did an amazing job fixing it and at a reasonable price! If you are looking to get your car fixed and expect great results, come to Gaby! He is such a sweet, genuine man with a very kind heart. He will do an amazing job!

Amazing service and exceptional attention to detail. I was contemplating selling my car after picking it up because it looked brand new and sooooo good that I knew I would get top dollar for it! Gaby the owner is great and very honest. Once you meet him, you will know that he is one of the few very genuine people in the world who truly want to help you. Thanks soooo much Gaby! Take your car or truck here and talk to Gaby. You will not regret it, guaranteed!

Gaby is definitely the guy you go to when you need something done. Quick and trustworthy, it’s hard to find someone as honest as him. Went in with a budget to fix my front bumper and he suggested the best options he had for me that were good deals. I’d recommend this place if anyone wants fast and friendly service. Plus i still get compliments on the job they did!

Finally found the mechanic I always dreamed of having — ha ha. Seriously though, gaby is amazing. Took my car in to get a fender bender fixed and not only was the service quick, the finished product looked amazing since he went above and beyond — washing and even took off a lot of scratches that were on my car. Thank you gaby! I definitely would recommend this place

Great experience at AAC&B! Gaby is all about customer service. After talking through the options with me, I made the best decision for my situation. No sales pressure. Just honesty and GREAT service. Thank you!

We came here to get my sister’s bumper reattached (since it was a little loose) on a Saturday. A previous repair place insisted we had to replace the bumper and quoted us $ 2000 and 5 days. Gaby said he’d be able to reattach if and take care of some dents for $ 260 in several hours. He even gave us a ride to a place several miles away. When we came back to get the car, Gaby had not only reattached the bumper, but also given the car a thorough cleaning, inside and out. He explained that if it were him, he would buy replacement parts for the bumper, totally about $ 400, but that the way he attached it, we shouldn’t have a problem unless we bumped into something again. Really great service.

Wow what an amazing service and a very honest owner which name is gaby Costea. It was such a blessing to meet him. I know he will take care of my car very well. I recommend advance auto center and body to any body wither big or small they’ll take care of you I promise you that.

I hurt my poor Lexus bad on drivers side. the door needed to be replaced, ¾ painted on drivers side. I got two estimates. 1@ $ 1,000 for two weekends. Then Gaby flat $ 1400 and 4 days. Well, I picked Gaby because I felt more at ease, and was close to my house. The man is a miracle worker, saved me money straight off the top and shaved 2 days off the time. What more can us hard working women ask for. I tell you he is respectful to us and helps us. If you are in a deliema of where to get work done, here is your answer. IF he can’t do it he will tell you. If he can he does it 120% Thank you Gaby!!!

Gaby performs awesome work on cars of all types. I recommend anyone to go to his shop! He is such a caring and honest person! When you leave with your beautiful car, you know you have met a friend for life!

I took my Mercedes 2014 ML350 to Gabi at Advanced Auto!!! They were referred to me from a friend! After having a bad experience with the last body shop I took my car in for an estimate and Gabi was very professional. He made me feel very comfortable. With the knowledge he had expressed, I left my vehicle to them for repair! Gabi had communicated to me the status of my vehicle and let me know what was going on!!! His customer service skills are amazing and if I could give a10 stars I would!!! I got my vehicle back and my vehicle looks brand new! You can’t tell if my vehicle was ever involved in a collision!!! Amazing work, amazing customer service. Thank you Advanced Auto you are AMAZING!!! I recommend Advanced Auto to everyone!!! Thanks Gabi for the Amazing work!!! I love my car!!!

Wow! What incredible customer service and quality work. I went in for what I thought was a simple fix but he saw other things that were concerning and fixed it all for an affordable price. I feel so much safer. I took a stack of business cards because I will definitely be referring others in addition to bringing my other car here. I wish more businesses were ran like this!

I went to this collision center because my friend decided to detach my bumper from the rest of my car accidentally last December/​January. I tried to Unilocal the closest auto center and Unilocal referred me to this WONDERFUL auto center. I can’t stress enough on how great Gabby was from the start to finish. He really went out of his way to provide great customer service and trying to make my stressful situation as painless as possible. Very honest man with very great intentions. My car came out even better before the accident. He made sure that I got a great deal and he even had my car washed for me. I highly recommend Gabby and his auto center to anybody. After my first great experience with Gabby, I’m pretty sure that I will start using him for my auto body work.
Thank you so much for your great service! :)

So rare to find honest people who do honest work. Usually means more business. Will definitely be back to see Gabby for any work on my car. He was very upfront and honest. Gave me a a great deal and took the time to work on my car (even though my car is not so high end)
Already recommended him to my friends and fam. At least go by and ask him for an opinion. Also, if you’re going through insurance go here. Car will be better than new.
