Florida · Collision and cosmetic repair

Your car,
so your choice of shop.

An insurer can recommend a repair shop. It cannot require one. If you are being told otherwise, that is worth knowing before the car goes anywhere.

How we work

A Florida shop, and the choice is yours

Cuibas Body Shop LLC is a limited liability company registered in the State of Florida, document number L23000232502, filed in 2023. The shop is registered as a motor vehicle repair facility with FDACS under [FDACS MOTOR VEHICLE REPAIR REGISTRATION NUMBER].

You are entitled to a written estimate before work begins, to authorise anything beyond it, and to ask for your old parts back — ask before we start. You also choose where your vehicle is repaired; an insurer may recommend a shop but cannot require one. We are not adjusters, insurers or public adjusters and we give no advice on your policy coverage.

Frequently asked

The questions we get most

My insurer says I have to use their shop. Is that right?

No. An insurer can recommend a shop, and may have arrangements with some, but the choice of where your vehicle is repaired is yours.

Will the paint match exactly?

As closely as the process allows. New paint will not match a faded ten-year-old panel, which is why we blend into adjacent panels — and we will tell you when that is needed rather than letting you discover it outside.

Are you using new parts?

The estimate says which parts are new original equipment, aftermarket or recycled. Insurers often specify the cheaper options, so it is worth reading that line.

What is a supplement?

Hidden damage found once a panel comes off. We document it and get authorisation before continuing — we do not carry on and present a larger bill afterwards.

Can I get my old parts back?

Yes, if you ask before work starts. It is your right in Florida.

Can you just hammer the dent out?

Sometimes. If the paint is intact and the metal is not stretched, paintless removal is cheaper and keeps the factory finish. We will tell you honestly when it will not work.
