I've visited several body shops, but none matched the kindness and professionalism of this place. My frustration began two months ago when the paint on the rear side window of my car started peeling off. I looked at other places, but they all quoted outrageous prices. I bought paint online in a similar blue shade to my car to do it myself, but the peeled area was too large, and I couldn't handle it. However, when I visited this place recommended by my friend, the owner of the body shop explained everything so kindly and said they would do it at a low price. Kenny skillfully scraped off the peeled paint and repainted it within three hours. The result was so impressive that I almost questioned if there had ever been peeling paint. I will definitely recommend this body shop to my friends, and whenever there is an issue with my car, I will only come here.

Bait and switch price for paint job, went 3500 over for paint but didn’t disclose until after car was left. And threatened with storage fees. Classic SHARKS. Sloppy job with paint, many imperfections and Kenny’s Son, the mini crook, tried to justify the sloppy work with “why do you want it so perfect?, if you step back from it you can’t even notice the fish eyes, runs, and orange peal” smh. Just very shady the way they go about business. Especially After they kept bragging and overselling how good they paint, the rappers cars they painted etc. had to micromanage them the whole time just to get it decent up to standards. Over charge for average work. If you are looking for show quality paint or even above average paint work seek else where. -JTUpdated: hey Kenny, no I’m 100% right this the right shop, I just don’t want anyone else to get over charged by you or your son at your bodyshop. I know you guys have a family business and it’s Oakland, but I would expect better for the prices you’re chargingi encourage ppl to look elsewhere if they want quality work.Unless you want rushed and half a** done, and then ok w owners playing games and act like they don’t know what’s wrong with the paint when even a blind man can see it’s clearly not the quality promised.Over charged and then given below average work. Shame on your family businessService: Painting

Kenny and his team are awesome. He fixed significant damage to my car after a crash & theft and was super helpful and communicative with the insurance company. Thanks!

Great job! My1965 Mustang looks car-show gorgeous again after a fender bender necessitating replacement of fender and front bumper. I was worried about matching my 5-year old paint job, but it was matched perfectly with smooth straight lines. Couldn't tell there'd been a repair. To my surprise, Kenny, the owner, charged me $550 less than his estimate! I didn't know anybody did that. And they took it immediately and got it back to me in 3 days. They even gave me a lift home when I dropped off the car and picked me up at my home when it was done. Very pleasant people to deal with and excellent results.

My car was in an accident and I brought it here because I've known about this place my whole life and how they repaired my mom's cars. They fixed my bumper and saved me on the deductible. My car looked new. I recommend this place for body work.Services: Painting

Super professional, great people, great service. KJ's does excellent work and is a bargain for what it's worth. I brought in my SUV for body repairs after a tree branch fell on it. The hood was dented & scratched up, and after 2 short days it was like none of it ever happened. Definitely going back, definitely recommend!Services: Painting

Got the lowest quote here after asking at least 7 dealerships. They did a great job on my bumper, a nice paint job and made it really look brand new. They even took my HOV stickers off my damaged bumpers and put it on the new one. It saved me the hassle of getting new ones, thought that was pretty thoughtful. Only thing I thought was weird was the owners daughter in the beginning was telling me to order my own bumper and have it sent to the shop. I wondered why she couldn't just do it but I attempted anyway, but the companies she recommended didn't have the OEM part and we went factory which was fine. It's also a shop that can be difficult to access due to the location.

I'm glad to read some good ratings of this place because I tried to get some work done there but gave up! It's located on San Leandro Ave which drivers think is a freeway. It was difficult slowing down to find the address and there's almost no street parking because almost all of the curb for blocks and blcoks is red. There were also no garage spaces in front of KJ's, just cars being serviced I guess. I tried to park momentarily in front of the driveway to the right of KJ's and was quickly shooed away by a worker. I searched for blocks for parking, risking being hit from behind by annoyed drivers. I finally found a space about 1/2 mile away in a really funky area. I sat in the car, said F*ck it! And heading to a nice, clearn and neat car dealer to get my work done. My recommendation for KJ's is to fix the parking problem, let customers know the deal, especially given the very unattractive location.

This is the most amazing group of people my car was in a accident I'm a 20 year old college student. My insurance ends up yelling at me treating me like s*** and denied my claim. I called the shop and not only did he tell me to calm down he said I'm going to see what I can do, because I am now coming out of pocket. They even called the Insuarance. This place takes care of their customers. As a young black woman often body shops and mechanics try and play us. I never experienced such an honest man and his daughter. I just want to thank him. If you want a honest body shop to make your car look brand new this is the place. This is a family and I hope you guys trust them with you business....
