Automotive Enterprise - San Carlos, California

THANK YOU for making my car look brand new and sexy again!! The work has exceeded my expectations. I'm so happy that I decided to go with Automotive enterprise for my c8 repairs. I'm new to the bay area and wasn't satisfied with the dealership recommended body shops. Got to know about this place from Corvette forums. From the first call till car pickup, Bob was so honest and straightforward about how the process is going to look like. You rarely come across people who know what they're talking about. He knows how to treat a customer and make them feel good about their choice. He even introduced me to his friends 😅 I was very worried about the replacement parts and the insurance coverage and how the car is gonna look like after the repairs but Bob clearly explained about it, reassured the work is going to be excellent and made me feel relieved. My car looks brand new and she feels the same. It's like the accident never happened. They also reinstalled the ppf and it looks better than the previous shop. If you're a Vette owner in the bay, you can't go wrong with this place!!

I’ve been dealing with Automotive Enterprise for many years and have taken several vehicles to them for repair. I’m sure there are other good body shops around, but Automotive Enterprise is tried and true for me. I take all my vehicles here, without exception. From the paintwork to the mechanical repairs, they are a top-tier shop. Yes, I’m that guy who will scrutinize the quality of workmanship and I couldn't find anything amiss with my Corvette’s paint and repair. It was flawless. They also took care of my pickup on a couple of occasions, and the quality of workmanship was the same as my Corvette. If you are looking for cheap and fast repair, you might want to look elsewhere. If you want it done correctly, with quality workmanship and materials, consider Automotive Enterprise. They always stand by their work!

Bob at A&E worked on my 1966 Corvette. He completed two projects recently. The first was to add Power Steering and Power Brakes. He used a set-up made by Borgeson. It looks very nicely installed. No cheap plastic bits and pieces. The car turns and handles like a modern car and the brakes are of excellent quality. Now I can drive the car with very little effort while improving the driving experience. The second project was replacing the two short stub axles that are on each side of the differential. They were original to the car and never been replaced. The car came to life again and now feels very tight and I don’t have to be concerned about breaking anything when the 427 is called upon to perform. These projects combined make the car fun to drive again and so easy to maneuver. Great work Automotive Enterprise!

Bob and his crew got my corvette looking like new again!
They did a great job, the communication was good, and they delivered when they said they would. I hope I don't need to use them again, but if I do, I won't hesitate to give them my business.

Automotive Enterprise is a top tier, honest, detailed and informative, professional body shop. When I spoke with Bob Waldschmidt, I immediately knew he was a business man with integrity, and an absolute old school straight shooter. I was sure the ZR1 front bumper on my C7 Stingray was completely cooked and beyond repair. I was already checking prices for a new bumper, and irritated about what I suspected would be the cost for the parts, paint and labor. However, within 30 seconds of virtuosity automotive inspection, BW said, “oh no, you don’t need a new bumper we can repair this one.” The sincerity I was shown, and how the shop took a personal interest in a complete and perfect restoration of my aftermarket ZR1 bumper was such a blessing. I was provided with an estimate, below, what I had assumed the cost would be, which was so specific and thorough, it was an easy decision to tell Bob, “let’s add another body modification to the vette while we’re at it.” Vicrez makes a rad Stingray side skirt with a vertical wing, so I had the shop order up, and when the parts arrived I got a call from BW, who transparently said the side skirts aren’t going to look as good as the stock 2015 C7 Z51 side splitters but they could attach the winglet and make it look mint!!! I was also given the Vicrez side skirt to sell, the shop, in no way was dishonest at any point. And the results, the finished product, far exceeded my expectations. The work done on my corvette was next level and any future repairs or body mods will be done by automotive enterprise.

If you want professional, honest and friendly auto shop and someone who will do a good job and also will help you with your insurance issues, Automotive Enterprise auto collision repair specialist is the one for you. I first brought my car to Robert (Bob) when my car was involved in an accident, damages totaled to about 20K. He was thorough, he made sure replacement parts were new and made by the original manufacturers. He kept me updated with the job progress and kept me involved with choices and decision making. And he was a GREAT liaison with my insurance agent. I didn’t have to worry about claims being disregarded or discounted. After repairs and I picked up my car, he gave me a follow up call to check and to make sure everything was doing ok.

The second time I brought my car for repair, I got the same treatment from this shop. Rob (the son) was friendly, courteous, acted professionally and listened to my issues. I got my car back in good driving condition. I will continue to bring my car to this shop. I’m happy with the kind of service they provide and most of all, they’re honest and it’s great to have that peace of mind knowing you’re being taken cared of.

Bob, Phil, and the rest of the crew are the best at Automotive Enterprise. I brought in my 1958 Corvette project car for body, paint, and interior work, and I could not be more pleased with the job they did. There was a lot of unseen damage to the car when I purchased it, and Bob found that damage, fixed it, and the car now looks like it just came off the dealership floor! I highly recommend Automotive Enterprise, and will definitely bring any future projects I have to them for repair / restoration.

I got into a little mishap in my Corvette.
The rear end had a bit of damage including the bezel around the taillights. I took my car at Automotive Enterprise and when I got it back, it looks like the accident never happened. The paint match was perfect.
