Hi everyone, has anyone had body work done here? They are a certified collision shop for BMW located in Ambler, PA. Probably a long shot but was just curious.

I brought my 335 in to Classic Coachwork body shop but the one in Collegeville, PA.
I highly vouch for those guys, they did a wonderful job on my car with a quick turnaround and they mostly handled the insurance claim for me too.

My 435i is at their Ambler location because of my front-end getting hammered by rocks on a milled road and they have been very helpful. They're repainting my hood, front bumper and fenders, I'm a bit on edge because I'm hoping they paint the car to BMW factory standards. How was your paint?

Hello! So sorry to hear about your car! But I also have experience with Classic Coachworks, and let me tell you... you've found the right place. Just before I bought my Jet Black 328 the previous owner got into a minor front end collision. Literally THE DAY BEFORE I was going to bring it home. Talk about luck. She covered everything and took it to Classic Coachworks. The parts are OEM and the paint work is impeccable. She noted she had previous body work done on other cars there and told me not to worry.
To my surprise, it was perfect, looked like it never happened. I thought there would be slight difference in body color, there was no visible change anywhere. I was extremely impressed and glad she decided to take it there. I am going to find a picture or two if I can.

I would love to see pictures! My paint is midnight blue metallic, apparently hard to match. So far, I need a new headlight and my hood, bumper and fenders need a repaint.

For others looking these guys are the best there is in Philly. Not cheap, but the best there is.

Honestly maybe overkill for a BMW, paint from the factory isn't great to begin with. They do concours level work.

Update: I got my car back on Wednesday; it was a long 3.5 weeks, but Classic Coachwork did a great job! My entire front end looks brand new! 100% recommend.
