International Auto Center Body Shop gives free auto body estimates in Santa Clara. Send photos through the form below or visit 1499 Lincoln St on weekdays from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM. The estimate is written, itemized and yours to compare with any other quote.
How to get your estimate
Option one is to send photos through the form on this page, along with your vehicle year, make and model. Option two is to drive in, Monday through Friday between 8:30 AM and 5:30 PM. A photo estimate is a good first look. A full estimate needs the car in person, because hidden damage rarely shows in photos.
Taking photos that help
Take a wide shot of each side of the car, then close-ups of every damaged area, from the front and at an angle. Add a photo of the VIN plate through the windshield if you can. Shoot in daylight and wipe off dust first. If a part moves or rubs, record a short video.
What the estimate will show
A written estimate lists parts, labor hours and paint as separate lines, with notes on hidden damage we suspect. It is the document you can place next to other shops' quotes.
A second opinion on a big quote
If a dealer or a large shop gave you a high number, bring it along. We will tell you honestly what we see. Sometimes the answer is a smaller repair, sometimes it confirms the first quote. Either way you lose nothing by asking.
What happens next
If you like the estimate, we schedule the work and order parts. If not, you owe nothing for the estimate. If you are filing an insurance claim, we share the estimate with your adjuster and handle supplements.
