I was recently involved in a minor car collision that left some transfer paint marks on my vehicle. The damage wasn’t severe, so I didn’t want to go through my insurance and end up paying a $500 deductible plus rental fees for such minor repairs. I visited several body shops, but their quotes were even higher than my deductible. Then I found Mid American Body Shop and spoke with Sam. I can’t express how much I appreciate his help. He didn’t charge me for the work he did and was upfront in explaining that while some of the marks might not come off completely, he’d do his best—and he did. I’m grateful for his honesty, generosity, and the fact that he wasn’t trying to take advantage of the situation. If you’re looking for a fair, ethical place to get body work done, this is it. I highly recommend Mid American Body Shop—and definitely ask for Sam. He was fantastic.

I hate writing this negative review, because this is a family-owned business serving Evanston for a long time. But I feel like it's the only responsible thing to do. Brought my BMW i3 for front bumper cover repainting. Car was ready to pick up in about 48 hours. The color was not even close to matching the body. But the car is 10 years old and the price was reasonable ($600, I think?), so I was going to live with it. The next several days after I picked up the car, the frunk hood warning light kept coming on, and I kept pulling over to push it down. Finally I went to open it to see if something was getting stuck, and the hood went under the A frame moulding and made a huge paint defect. The frunk was so misaligned it couldn't be opened with damaging it. Took the car back to show them the issue. They offered to fix it, but I chose instead to go somewhere else to fix it. Why should I trust them to do a good job after my experience thus far? The other shop charged me $1,400 to fix the issue caused by / unidentified by Mid America. ? Giving two stars vs one because the family owning the business seem like really good people. I hope they are successful. But I wasted $600 going to them.

Great service! I stopped by for the estimate for fixing the scratch on the side of my car, which was given promptly. The extremely nice and helpful gentleman right away improved the look of the scratch for no charge! Before and after photos attached. Highly recommend this business.
