Finish Line Auto Craft

My car was rear ended and I took my BMW here. I am very satisfied with overall service. The owner, Jesse was able to work with my insurance company and did a good job, and he explained and answered my questions so I have a better understanding of what was being done to my car. I would recommend this shop to others. You will get personal attention and service.

I had an car accident on my passenger side. All my windows and body got damaged. This place took a month to fix it. The first time the guy told me it will take about 2 weeks. I call him after two weeks he says few more days and few more days… Finally in one month i could bring my car. And he told me there was leather sear damage before they started fixing the car. That was a lie! I hate this place. Never bringing my car to fix. The price was reasonable thou.

I left my car here for the mechanic side of business. Also does auto body and paint. John helped me out a lot. He doesn’t up charge nor doesn’t charge you without making sure that is the part you need to make things run again. Besides a mishap. Everything was easy to deal with. I’ll be back. Especially since I live right around the corner.

This is the place I take my baby (VW GTI) for all the automotive services. I never have to worry about getting more services than what I actually needs because Jesse (owner) is super NICE & always honest. This is a One stop shop where they do repair services & body works. Highly recommended!!!

As a single woman I have been referred to at car repair places and dealers as baby, honey, sweetie, sweat heart, doll, while at the same time they haven’t noticed that I actually have a clue about cars and kind of know what’s going on (not enough to fix it, but I do know the difference between a radiator and brakes). Well at Finish Line I am actually treated like a person, it’s shocking but they don’t assume I have the iq of a five year old.
They also are magicians at actually fixing cars, taking the time to solve problems instead of just saying $ 500 and not having anything actually fixed.
Great prices, honest, and competent service! These guys rock!

I have been going to Finish Line for several years and they are fantastic. I have used them to fix my cars after accidents and always use them before I return my lease cars. Jesse, the owner is a super nice guy and very honest. As you all know, honesty especially in this industry is hard to find. Also used them for auto service (tune-​ups, brake jobs, etc) and they were equally impressive.
BTW — several people in my company use them and I get the same feedback everytime. Regardless of what type of car, common or high-​end they do a great job.

I have a 2003 Audi A4 with over 210,000 miles. In the past whenever I had problems with the car I would take it to an Audi dealership and first find out the problem and get a price quote. Then I would take it to Finish Line and get their assessment and price quote. Depending on the repair Finish Line would easily beat out any Audi dealership price by up to half the cost at times. And always using original Audi parts too! Jesse is the guy to ask for.

finish line is the best!!!
I always get the best service for a good price. and i can trust these dudes to put my car right. i dont go anywhere else.

Finish Line is the place to go for any car fix and Jessie is the man to ask for! He took care of everything with no hassle and in excellent time. I wish I could also give ten stars!

I’ve dealt with both Jessie and John over at Finishline. I’ve been going back to them for at least 4 years now, way before they relocated down the block. Before them it was incredibly hard to find a place as dependable and trustworthy. When it comes to my car, in this town, it’s comforting to know I have a place I can rely on.

Jessie is a professional and prompt. Highly recommend Finish Line. I recently spoke to him and he mentioned hes been in this business for 15 years. The work shows. Also highly skilled at dealing with insurance companies… he knew the ins and outs. Kudos and five stars

If you get into a car accident, this is probably not a bad place to go if you’re going through insurance. However, if you plan on doing anything to your car with your own money just go somewhere else.
Finish Line is an insurance shop. The majority of their income isn’t from the walk in customer paying cash. I’m sure it’s fine for doing little jobs like oil changes, but if it’s anything major beware. Now I don’t like to talk down on a business that’s close to friends and family, but I’ve just seen too many of them being dicked over by the people over there.
Being that it is an insurance shop, the cars that are referred by the insurance companies get priority service. Let’s say you want to pay for a paint job out of pocket, expect a normal week long paint job to take at least a month or longer. If you’re a car enthusiast, don’t ask them to do a motorswap that isn’t drop in. A CRX was brought there back in 2001 for a B16A swap. The CRX was dual port, and they could never figure out the dual to multi port wiring. Due to the owner of the car and a promise from one of the mechanics at Finish Line, the car is still there. It’s been 8 years. A Honda motorswap should not take that long.
If your insurance recommends this shop after an accident, don’t be afraid to go there. They will treat you well. Just don’t go there to do any major maintenance out of pocket. It’s just not worth the time and money. If you do go there, do ask John about what’s going on with that red CRX.

I have been their customer ever since I moved to LA from Hawaii. They have been always very honest and helpful to explain what’s best and never push on something unnecessary like some other auto shops.
One on occasion, I asked him if I needed to do 60k mile maintenance and they took a look at the condition of the car and said I can still wait till later for that. How many auto shops would tell you to wait when they can make money on you.
Ever since then I have been referring some of my friends and they were all happy about their service.

OK. I am spilling my car maintance secret. This is the only place I go to, to do anything with my car. My best friend has been going here for years, and that tradition has been passed down to me. I have been going to this place for over a year (considering I moved to California last year, that is pretty good) and to be honest, I had never lived close to this place before. (I’ve lived in HB, LA, Fullerton, and LB! None of them are that close to Gardena)
When I was trying to get a new car last year, John helped me pick out cars. Whatever the cars I was looking into, I took the cars here, and he took a very thorough look into the cars. The car dealers who went with me commented later that they felt as if they were taking a big school test.
These people are absolutely dependable, and I won’t take my car anywhere else ever again. I did have an incident once when I had to go to another body shop (it’s a long story) but I had to have these guys check my car to make sure that everything was working properly. And of course, the other body shop guy messed up my car, so I had to run back and forth again. When I had John confirmed it that everything is working in proper order, that is when I could finally feel more comfortable driving my car.
I am sure you can all trust them as much as I trust them.
Cars, man, they cost big bucks when you run into difficult situations. You want to go to a place you feel the most comfortable in.
Wish I can give them ten stars!
