This was the absolute worst shop for a paint job.The owner is who I dealt with directly. And yes you will see the truck was in rough shape prior to getting paint. But hey that’s why it was there. I had a very clear 2 week time frame to meet as this was for my dad when he was on vacation. I was told up and down no problem we could knock that out in 2 weeks. Well I showed up unannounced because I wasn’t hearing back in a timely manner the 2nd to last day before my promise time, everything was nearly untouched. Met w excuses about how the workers got COVID. Yet showed up the next day again and they were also still there at work. So that was a lie. We agreed on a price and after getting details on what quality to expect, even what materials and type of paint will be applied. We were very thorough and very specific about the details. Only to show up a week and a half after the promise date to a truck painted the wrong color in the wrong material. Why lie to my face and act like you did the customer a favor by not painting the color they chose because you say “I think this color looks better for that type of truck”. Well no one asked what you think, you were not the one choosing or paying. I’ll admit the truck had seen it’s fair share of FL sun. But the before and after might look ok in pictures he will post to the business page. But trust me. It. Looks. Terrible.I have heard the excuses in person. We needed more time to work on the prep. It looks good for the time we had it. Etc. you had a promise time of 2 weeks. Exactly 14 days. And barely started the project on the 10th day. Then have the audacity to blame the customer for “rushing” I offered to pick up the truck as is w no primer or paint and he just kept telling me it would be painted that night. Then sit one day to cure. And can be taken the next day. After 1,000 in a rental car I told him I had to have the vehicle that same day he agreed to let me pick up on a Saturday and if needed because they didn’t have enough cure time he would come in on a Sunday.In the end I have learned my lesson and will have to deal w taking the owner to small claims court. Think twice before dealing with this place. They were just plain lazy and full of lies to buy time. I have 2 separate occasions where the owner tried to blame the workers for not getting them pictures or only sending him 2 pics. Only to download the Live Photo and see the time it was taken. So once he said this is from this am I didn’t have a chance to get a pic after it was painted. Come to find out the pic was taken at 4:57 pm. Then again he said this is the done pics. The only ones the guys sent me, only to download and find out.... it’s him in the pictures reflection.AGAIN: spend that hard earned money elsewhere.The best excuse overall was he painted it the wrong color because the right color was not available.So I called his paint supplier and they told me the right color was way more money than what he bought. But it could be mixed and ready in 15 minutes. He paid under $80. That’s retail price. The color I wanted was just over $350. I also called the place where he told me he would get the color from and it was only $230 from them and could be mixed in 5 minutes. BUT he had some elaborate excuse on how COVID is causing availability issues and the color I wanted just was not in stock. Like I don’t know they mix pairs as needed just like Home Depot does for interior paints.The end product was just terrible. As if no work was done for prep. Paint over factory pin stripes. Drips, runs, sags... bugs in the clear coat.
Bon is the real deal. Junior and his team are awesome. If you have a car needing repainting they do not cut corners. Junior looked at my car and gave me a firm estimate which is rare these days. Junior has a Customer attitude and his work shows it. His prices are the fair and best in the area! I will go to Junior Bon for my automotive needs.
Bon the best my car came out really good for the price I’m so happy with the job
Truly a nightmare working with him. we were given a one week time frame for the job which included fixing the trunk and bumper. when i called the day it was due, he said there was a set back with the trunk and it was going to take a “few more days.” those few days turned into 3 weeks. he knew about the mishap with the trunk and didn’t not reach out to us not once, and that’s how it was like the whole time. when the car was finally ready after 3 weeks, we went to pick it up and we found so many things wrong with the car. the alignment was off. the taillight on the quarter panel and the trunk were very clearly not aligned. the bottom of trunk and the bumper were hitting against each other so the paint was already chipping off, there were screws placed all over the car that weren’t there before, the latch was not aligned properly preventing the trunk to close with minimal force, there is clear spot in the quarter panel where the paint was not buffed to blend in with the rest of the paint, the right side taillight was somehow burnt and after pointing out everything, he dare had the audacity to tell us to keep it there for a “few more days” so he could fix it. this place is truly a joke. the communication is poor and the work is equally as poor.
Cheaper than everyone else for a reason.Very poor quality work, he takes short cuts and cuts cornersSometimes cutting corners can work out, sometimes it doesn’t…. Welp, you decide if you want to take that risk with your car, money and time
Took my car to Bon Automotive, Junior took care of it like the pro he is!!!. I am very satisfied with the paint job simple great!! thank you Junior!!!
