Tepa Auto Body

I’ve used Tepa Auto body for a few work trucks I have. The first was a front bumper for a Ford F-​350. Truck turnaround was within 24 hours and communication with Mike was great. Second install was a rear aftermarket bumper for a 2015 Ford super duty and wiring of lights for a headache rack. Again great communication with Mike and troubleshooting issues were resolved quickly when one light wasn’t working. Mike and the Tepa crew do great work and are really nice guys.

Hit a dresser that fell of a truck… Finally getting my whole front end fixed.
Mike is the kinda guy that will drive to stockton (1 hour away) to personally pickup a part to make sure you get your car the same day… Hands down still the best body shop in the area with the best prices.
If you go anywhere else for minor adjustments or major repairs you will not get as good of a deal as you would here with Mike and his team. Working through the extra damage and getting the supplemental approved was a breeze and they took care of it perfectly.
My 2008 GTI looks brand new now thanks to Tepa Auto Body. Couldnt ask for better service.

I am so impressed by Tepa Body Shop! I got a great quote from Mike and then took my car (Lexus sedan) in for some body work a few days later. I was mildly concerned about matching the paint, etc. but it turned out fantastic! You can’t see any work. it looks brand new. I’m recommending this shop to all my friends, and will definitely be back when I need more work done (hopefully it won’t be my fault next time!). Everybody that works there is super nice, especially the owner, Mike. Oh, I can’t forget to mention they totally cleaned the inside and outside of my car before giving it back to me– how awesome is that?!

I scrapped a bumper of a Dodge caliber and asked the owner of the car to get a couple quotes so I can decide to let him claim my insurance or fix it out of pocket. I was looking for a cheap quote myself and was referred to Michael by a coworker. To my surprise Michael repainted the whole rear bumper of the car for less then ¹⁄₃ of the price that the owner of the Dodge got from different places, and the owner was pleased with the quality of work done to his car! Would highly recommend to any one.

Mechanic Steve Bruno is awesome. Did a thorough review of my 2000 Mustang, made good recommendations. Tepa Motors is honest and has reasonable prices. My go to place for my auto.

Tepa Auto Body is as good as it gets! My late Friend and Brotha Pedro Navarro introduced me to Michael Gonzalez, owner and manager of Tepa back in 2011. The quality and commitment to simply the best custom paint jobs in the market is what they produce! I’m proud to say I am more than satisfied with the end result of one of the best paint jobs in the Bay Area and they continue to work with me as the years move on. I highly recommend to those who can employ patience to work with one of the best in complete auto body repair and customization shops in the bay area, bar none!

This is the best auto body shop in the Pittsburg area, hands down. My wife and I had our car hit in a parking lot, and every shop that we contacted gave us a high quote for panel replacement and paint. Mike was the only one to give us the option to clean and buff out the scratches for a much lower price, and if we chose to replace panels and paint he had the lowest price for that as well. The work that they do is top notch, and they are the most honest dealer in the area. I would recommend them to anybody.

I brought my car here because I received some auto damage. I got a big dent and a scratch. I brought it here not knowing anything about the company. The guy that hit me told me about this place. They did a great job on my car. The price was perfect, customer service was great, and final product looked awesome. If I have damage or if I know someone that has damage I will bring it here. This company is a 5 star company.

I was referred to Michael @ «Tepa Autobody», the gentleman who referred me is a close friend whom I trust and knows me well, he said: «they do really great work with reasonable prices, communicate with Michael what quality, timeframe and price you want and he will make you happy»
I took my car there and he had the whole car painted. it’s a 1985 BMW 635CSI, let me tell you he did a fantastic job with great price and there was no pressure being sold on extra work, he explained, aducated and earned the job respectfully and all of the workers are happy with great attitude and everyone works well because they’re all family and work well together, I never saw any unhappy faces from employees to customers and they have this Beautiful dog named Rambo that is so nice and adorable but be warned he will try to hump you, lol.
It’s nice when you go to any business and it becomes immediately obvious that they like what they do, never once even when it was late in the evening they said they need to go home or they close at a certain time they were always attentive to my needs, communicated and even when I picked up my car Michael patiently stayed after their closing time and explained what he had done and showed me the car and went over it with me, NICE.
The car was also done as he had promised to meet my timeline and unlike any other automotive repair or Bodyshops it was actually done in exactly 10 days at 5 pm, time is money and I really appreciate it when someone actually understands and delivers and I paid not a penny more than we agreed or was ever asked to do so or heard that he put more work or ever hinted that he wanted more money, that was really nice that he took the time to do it right and delivered on time with integrity, very refreshing and respectful.
Take your time, shop around, talk to anyone but take it to «Tepa Autobody» when ready.
These guys do real quality work and very reasonable on price and always on time.
Thanks Michael.

I brought my 750 series here for some body work (some scratches from a tire bust) and Mike really took care of my needs. He worked with my insurance (All state) to take care of repair costs without any issues or extra charges.
They are very professional, courteous and honest. I think Michael is a guy you can trust. Next time I have a ding or scratch on my car il be back to these guys!
Affordable and good quality work. They are not trying to charge an arm and a leg and the work is just as good as any other shops that cost way more.

Wow! I have nothing terrible to say about this company whatsoever! They’ve maintained a level of professionalism from the beginning to end. When my elderly Mother’s excursion, truck was first brought into the shop, my Mom had a hard time trusting anyone to work on it, matter of fact, she probably gave Mike and Christian such a hard time due to dishonest mechanics in the pass, but, surprisingly, they won her over. They explained step by step from the beginning, her fuel pump issues, what was needed, how long it would take, and how much it will cost her when it was all said and done. I have never, ever seen my Mom pleased with any auto company before Tepa. The way they spoke in clarity and w/​knowledge, it let her know, that they knew, exactly what they were talking about. Now, she swears Tepa’s the best around, and «The young men are so nice and their prices are reasonable».
Thanks guys for keeping it professional and affordable, we give you 10 stars.

Came here to get my header installed on my Civic Si. Called a few days in advance for an appointment as many places were extremely booked up. Quoted me $ 80 to install and about an hour wait. The whole process was very pleasant. Took around 2.5 hours but the job was done well and costed the same 80 dollars. Should have cost $ 200+. These guys are great!

So I was looking for a shop that works on fiberglass and can do a good paint job. The search lasted 6 months every shop either sent out the car to get the fiberglass bumper installed then they could paint it. Could never find a shop that did everything in one place. Until I called tepa Autobody and talked to Mike. Well I took my chances and drove to Pittsburgh from Castro valley. One of the best choices I have made. I got all my questions answered. Plus they do tell u custom work does take time and quality work well more time. The project took 10 weeks. Reason the fiberglass bumper that I got and spoiler well really needed a lot of work and sanding. The paint job I got was inside and out. The color is Pearl color of u know or ask about paint they dread the Pearl or candy color they are a pain to do. Here no problem we got it. The price was really good too. Well the point the car looks incredible and am in love with it all over again. They installed the duraflex GT-​R front end to my 2012 Nissan Altima. Then had an STI spoiler on my Altima as well. The color looks incredible and I feel I found the shop for the rest of my car mods.

Highly recommend Tepa’s, Mike has been very helpful during the process. Quick turn around of repair and excellent quality of job done to my car (replaced door and paint). They even polish my headlights for free!

I went in to get the frame of my rx7 pulled and I highly recommend this shop. They’re fast and got it done for an affordable price. I am impressed with their work. However, there was a couple minor things like the airbox not put in correctly but it wasn’t a big deal since I changed the air filter.
If you want excellent body work with constant update at an affordable price. Check out Tepa! They’re cool dudes, talk to Mike.

Not only did they remove all the rust from my roof and repaint it, they also repainted my hood at no extra charge! How awesome is that?!
Excellent service and friendly folks, I will DEFINITELY be bringing my SUV back in the future!

1997 Cadillac
My husband got a 97 Cadillac that had a severe oil leak… Turns out everything was leaking from that car. So we went to Tepas and Gustavo took a look at it. Turns out all the hose and seals needed to be redone and the engine needed to be taken out. (I dont speak car talk so I dont know exactly the name of the parts needed to be fixed). Left our vehicle there and got every other day updates til the car was done.
My husband has never been so happy. Finally not having any problems with his vehicle and not having to spend an arm and a leg to get it fixed right. Other places wouldve charged way over the amount that we could afford but Gustavo understood our situation and gave us the best price he possibly could.
We dont just go to Tepas because they are the place to go and not just because their staff is very friendly and know what they are doing but we also go there because you dont have to break the bank to get your auto fixed exactly how you want it.
No games no hidden fees or extra cost.
Thanks for making my husband happy and me less stressed!

5 week quote turned into 6 months of labor. It’s a good thing I had a secondary car or the rental would have been nuts. My suggestion to you… Stay on top of this shop… They can paint, but if you don’t go there in person to make sure they are working on your car it may take longer than normal.
Towards the end Michael really started working with me and kept me informed. My car was not an easy job but they pulled it off.
If they had just kept me updated from the start of issues they ran into I wouldn’t have gone to the BBB.
Had an issue with license plate being loose and it fell and scratched the fresh paint. Also the front bumper and side skirts were a lighter color than the rest of the car. I called Michael and he had me come back in and he took care of it.
Now the car is finished and I must say these guys did a hell of a job this car is going to break necks on the street and steal judges at shows. Thanks Michael!

Lots of pics of my car on there.

They know cars for sure!
I had a 2008 Toyota Camry before that gotten into a minor fender bender and I brought it here at Tepa Auto Body and they fixed my rear bumper like it never had an accident. The best part here is dealing with the mechanics and the owner, Mike. He is very helpful and very honest on the whole process.
One of the things that they do best is customizing your car, if you are into that area. Me personally, I love cars and they helped me customize my Camry. They are very knowledgeable when it comes to suspension upgrades, exhaust upgrades, paintjobs, you name it!
Actually, I am going to bring my BMW E90 there to upgrade my exhaust and I am pretty sure that they will make it right. They have earned my trust and respect as a customer and that is the most important thing.

I was told by another local shop that I needed to spend way more money than my car was worth for it to pass smog… I brought my car here after a recommendation from my mother’s friend (and after I remembered I had them change an O2 sensor a few years back) and Gustavo quoted me so much less than what the other shop wanted… finally passed.
Great experiences both times.
