Collision damage on a car being assessed for repair at Solis Panelbeaters, New Lynn

A collision is more than the dent you can see. Modern cars carry crumple zones, airbag sensors, cameras and radar in the panels that take the hit, so a proper collision repair means checking the structure, the safety systems and the alignment, not just the paint.

At Solis in New Lynn, collision repairs are the core of what we do. Our I-CAR trained technicians assess the damage, document it with photos, quote it clearly and repair it to the manufacturer's method. If it is an insurance job we deal with your insurer for you. If you are paying privately you get the same standard and an honest price.

Repaired to the method, not the eye

We follow the manufacturer's repair procedures for your make and model, so the car protects you the way it was designed to after the repair, not just looks right.

Safety systems checked

Bumper, windscreen and panel work near sensors can put cameras and radar out of calibration. We check and recalibrate ADAS as part of a collision repair, on site.

One workshop, start to finish

Assessment, insurer liaison, structural work, paint, alignment and calibration all happen here in New Lynn. One point of contact, no sub-contracting your car around Auckland.

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.
