I just stopped in to get an estimate on some work. I spoke with Gary who was extremely pleasant and appeared to be honest in his opinion. He took the time to answer all my questions. As a person who is fairly ignorant about cars, I truly appreciated being treated with the utmost respect!

Easy to work with, work done on time and done well. I have been to them twice over the past 4 years for quotes and repair. They take the stress out of car accidents.

super service great work and above and beyond what was necessary.
had a great experience this is the place they made the rogue look nicer than the day I bought it! I will refer all my friends and clients for great body work. they mediated the insurance claim and performed superior work and detailed the car as well. ray and his team are the best and I know many body people and it is a grievous industry with insurance people wanting to cut corners and do shoddy work. this is not the case here and I would drive by 100 other shops to get my work done here !!!! thank you job well done and you deserve the best Steve G.

I chose Central Ave based on reviews of do many others positive experiences. I was not disappointed! Rick helped me out got some extra work that was needed taken care of. I left feeling my car was in good hands. When I picked it up... it was beautiful! Great work and they even cleaned my car inside and out for me! So nice! I hope to never need work again but if I do Central Ave is the only place I will go to!

I HIGHLY recommend Central Avenue Auto Body if you need auto body repair. I needed repair on my fender, as my paint was chipped down to the metal during a windshield replacement. The quality of the service and repair was outstanding. Rick and the fellows are extremely nice and professional.

My family has been going to Central Avenue Auto Body for decades. They are honest, have amazing customer service, wonderful technicians, and prices that are unmatched. Not only do they give you a loaner car, your repaired vehicle will be returned to you with a fresh wash and detailed interior. You car will feel like new.

I needed a new bumper after someone parallel parked into my car. Central Ave Auto Body was wonderful to deal with on the phone and in person. The other guys' insurance company tried to get them to use after market parts (which is naughty) and Central Ave did right by me and installed a shiny new bumper at the lower price. They offered me a free loaner while my car was in the shop, and the work was done quickly. The car looks beautiful, and Central Ave is my new body shop.

I had my Trunk lid repainted, and some minor work replacing the front wheel well fender, covered all the work exceptionally and would recommend to anyone seeking body work. Got a few estimates around town, but none would do the thoroughness of stripping off and repainting the lid, plus it was important for me to support a local business. Staff always friendly and very detailed in explaining what needed to be done, no surprises at all. In the end, a great experience, glad I met them, and wouldn't hesitate to trust them to fix my car again .... Thanks much!

I can't talk about the work they do because my car was totaled. I want to say that, even though there was really nothing in it for them, they treated me so well. (Another body shop made excuses -- they obviously didn't want me.) I dealt with Rick, who was polite and helpful and answered all my questions. I heartily recommend them just for their niceness and honesty.

BEST AUTO BODY SHOP IN NE MINNEAPOLIS! Ask for Rick!
Reasons why you should go here:
- Incredibly polite staff (especially on the phone)
- Do an outstanding job every time
- They are in the business of helping people not squeezing money out of people
- Prices are difficult to beat
- Family owned business
I have brought my BMW in here multiples times for details and dent/scratch removals. For the details I usually only get the external one, but every time I bring it in for one, I notice they detail the inside as well. In addition the scratch removals, I usually leave one or two out that look minor and they find every thing and fix it without any additional charges. Getting scheduled in can be a little challenging but you will soon realize that it is worth the wait due to the quality, service, and pricing.
Recently I nicked my garage and got some white paint on it(About a food in length). I scheduled a time to bring it in to get fixed, but when I brought it in to get an estimate, they came out, cleaned it up with some chemicals, and sent me on my way with no charge. I insisted on paying but they insisted that it was more important to make me happy. Their above and beyond, make the customer happy, and beat expectations is something that happens every time I visit. I would highly recommend you go here to get your car fixed or detailed. You will leave happy every time. In addition insurance will work here as well. You just have to sign an extra form if they are not within your authorized shop with your insurance company.
Central Ave is worth the wait, delivers amazing customer service, family owned, and will ensure you leave happy every time.

I am a repeat customer. Every time I am there I get unparalleled customer service, excellent workmanship and an entirely perfect experience. They deal well with the insurance companies and estimators and I appreciate being able to hand them my keys, get into a nice loaner, and return in a few days to my car looking fantastic.
