Automotive Refinishing in Chicago
Refinishing is the discipline of making a surface look like it was always that way. It covers repaired panels, tired original paint, and areas where a previous repair no longer matches the rest of the car.

How it works
Three steps to an estimate
1. Send the details
Fill out the short form or call the shop. Photos of the damage or the project help us understand what we are looking at.
2. We look at the vehicle
We follow up to talk through the work, then review the vehicle in person so the plan and the estimate match reality.
3. The work gets done right
Prep, repair and finish are handled in-house, and you see the vehicle when the panel reads the way it should.
Matching and blending
A refinished panel sitting next to untouched paint has to agree with it in color, in metallic layout and in gloss. Blending into adjacent panels is often what makes the difference.
Bringing back depth
Reflection is what people read as quality. Flat, dull or textured surfaces make a car look older than it is; a properly finished panel puts the depth back.
Before you call
Questions we hear most
How do I get an estimate for bodywork?
Call the shop at (708) 841-3110 or send your details through the estimate request form. Photos of the damage help start the conversation, and the vehicle is reviewed in person before work is scheduled.
Can I send photos of my vehicle?
Yes. The estimate form accepts multiple photos. Clear, well-lit shots of the damaged area, straight on and at an angle, are the most useful.
Do you work on custom vehicles?
Custom vehicle work is a core part of what Jodi Montana Customs does, from color changes and finish work to longer-term project cars. Bring the details of your project and we can talk through it.
Can you repair scratches and body damage?
Yes. Dents, scratches, scrapes, scuffed bumpers and other cosmetic exterior damage are all common work. Repairs still go through proper preparation and refinishing so the area blends with the rest of the car.
Do you offer automotive paint and refinishing?
Automotive paint and refinishing is one of the shop's main focuses: panel refinishing, blending, full repaints and custom finishes.
