The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of a low price is forgotten.

A three year old review, is not fair to Forrest Auto Bodies new owners.

I followed Mike Ray from his old shop, when he bought Forrest Auto Body in April 2008, to Elgin to fix my car. He is knowledgeable, honest, and has a working relationship with the insurance companies, whereas, if additional damage is…

My review of Forrest Auto Body

Small shop offering a personal touch, small meaning not part of a chain.\r Mike went the extra mile to work with my insurance company and my car looked great when I picked it up.\r One comment about Dean who left only a two star review,…

Forrest Auto Body is World Class

I do not usually write reviews, but I have had my car repaired at other body shops in the past and none of them can compare to the friendly customer service and professional craftsmanship that I recieved today at Forrest Auto Body. If…

Great experience

Came here on a recommendation from my mechanic. My car was hit by a van damaging my suspension and front end. Mike worked with my insurance company to fix the car quickly. Looks great and runs like new.

Had an accident with my 2014 Subaru Forester XT and was turned to this shop from my dealership as their preferred.
Great experience. Went for an estimate and within a week after working with my insurance company I dropped the car off. Was told three days and didn't take any longer than that.
Replaced the front bumper and other parts and they did an amazing job matching the paint. The fit on the bumper looked perfect and doesn't even look like I had an accident. Looks just as good as the day I bought the car.
Thank you Forrest Auto Body!

Fantastic workmanship. Great professionalism. Quick turn around and even took $100 off what I owed. Great guys, doing great and quality work. I'm sorry I needed them, but if I ever need them again I wouldn't take any of my vehicles anywhere else. They guys know their stuff and do a great job. I'd even say my car feels like it drives better than the day I got it.
Be sure to ask for Mike. Not sure, but I feel like he probably is the owner/manager and he's really great to work with.
Thanks again Forrest Auto Body!

I would never take my vehicle there again. If you want your vehicle back i hope you have alot of time to wait. I had my vehicle towed out of there to a body shop that could handle it. All they say is its on the list umm ok or there short handed. Maybe hire people for starters

I was hit by someone coming out of a gas station while on my way home from work; I bought this car new and had never been in an accident with it so I was upset and concerned at the same t ime about how my vehicle would be after the repairs, things like color match, driveability etc. Forrest Auto Body helped me through the entire process including explaining who I should talk to about diminished value, which I knew nothing about prior to this; and in the end, my car looks and drives like new, and the color match on my pearl white car is spot on and the repairs were completed in a timely manner.
