After reviewing the capabilities of several body shops in the area I engaged Brighton Panel Works for the respraying of my pride and joy 2020 Land Rover Discovery 5. Brighton Panel Works allayed my fears of colour matching a badly peppered front nose and bonnet with the rest of the car, of which the paint in good condition. Additionally, they were able to correctly align the front bumper which was never properly aligned since new. Excellent workmanship all round. Did not have to wait long to get the job done and they kept me abreast of progress along the way. Thoroughly recommend for all body and panel works.

Having BPWs do repair work on several occasions over the years and having a Semi give our Black Mercedes SUV a little love tap I was very relieved to be able to nominate our own repairer which of course is BPWs. Arranged for a similar Make/Model as our replacement vehicle then to be handed back a immaculate car I can only say one word to this business. RESPECT.

Sometimes we all experience excellence but rarley, way beyond any expectations. Our family SUV, a beautiful Cayenne S had a silly mistake by one of the family backing into our garage pole. Brighton Panel Works and Jacob went out their way to ensure we got the best repair completed. I can only highly recommend BPW to any driver requiring body repairs, they are sensational.

Could you just give your team , yourself your staff who ever works at BRIGHTON PANEL WORKS a huge thanks. Your team done such a great job…. Believe me they went above and beyond for my insurance accident claim. Crazy things is I had the worst experience with my insurer …. **dg*t insurance has been the worst car insurance I have every dealt with… Even my hire car company gave up in trying to contact them…. But BPW must be miracle workers coz they are able to work with the insurer and successfully complete the repair …. Even though I wasn’t contactable …. They tried via home phone mobile workplace and via email…. Great job BPW… 10/10 for skill/ cleanliness 10/10 friendless 10/10 communication 10/10 repairs skill knowledge 20/10 doing more than u could ask for .. 10/10 price (mine was a insurance claim: but for their service and skills you’d be happy to pay too dollar) Cheers Jacob and team @ “BRIGHTON PANEL WORKS” Btw I’ haven’t seen my interior so clean and well vacuumed …. They didn’t just wash and vacuum , looks like they detailed the car👍👍👍👍👍 Thanks Alan & Thao (long beach blue bmw m)

My near new (3 months old) car was taken in to Brighton Panel Works, with damage to the rear of my Kia Sportage GT Diesel. Once the parts were available from Kia. BPW completed the full repairs to my car and I wanted a few extras done to my car, Light Bar and Customised paint job at my extra cost. The colour match was amazing and you could not tell that there was painting done on the car. Everything was Absolutely Perfect. The entire staff were amazing and handled everything with Top Professional Courtesy, that everyone deserves, especially after the second most expensive purchase everyone has, had been damaged and the Distress that everyone goes through. Brighton Panel Works takes the entire Distress away. I Highly Recommend Brighton Panel Works in every aspect, they were All Totally Amazing. Yours Truely George David

I got my car repaired at Brighton panel works. It was recommended by the insurance company. The repair process was exceptionally fast as well as the process to arrange the hire car. It only took two weeks and my car looks even better. They looked after me really well.

BPW did a great job on my car. These guys know what they are doing. Excellent paint finish. Communication could be better and experienced part delays/shortages due to Covid (issue across the industry). Appreciated the personalised service and attention to detail shown by Aydin & Del. Thanks

BPW came to my rescue when another repairer couldn’t be bothered searching for parts so insurance company would only pay out repair costs but leave me with an unroadworthy car!! The guys at BPW assured me that they could get the parts and would repair it. They were true to their word. They did a fabulous job and their friendly service was exceptional. They offered to sort out a hire car, they offered to drop my car off when I was stuck. Honestly they could not have been more helpful and professional. I hope to have no more accidents but if I do I know where I will go. Highly recommended. And this is a real review!!!!! Thanks so much BPW! ❤️
