Panel beater assessing collision damage at Solis Panelbeaters in New Lynn

Solis Panelbeaters is a family-run panel and paint shop in New Lynn, a few minutes from Avondale, Blockhouse Bay, Titirangi and Glen Eden. We have repaired West Auckland cars for years: car park dents, scraped bumpers, keyed doors, hail, rust and full collision repairs. I-CAR trained technicians, a proper spray booth, chassis alignment and ADAS calibration all under one roof, so your car goes to one place and comes back finished.

If it is an insurance job, you can choose us. Tell your insurer you want Solis Panelbeaters in New Lynn and we handle the claim, the assessment and the paperwork. If it is a private job, we quote it clearly so you can compare it with your excess and decide. Either way, send a few photos and we will tell you what it needs and roughly what it costs, usually the same working day.

They provide full assistance with the insurance claim and offer a free courtesy car during the repair period. Awesome work, customer service and friendly staff.

Had my 350Z repaired after substantial rear-end damage. The job was done to such a high standard that you would not think it had been in an accident. The paint was blended in beautifully.
