Body Shops in Bay Area for Mineral White Paint Work?

Hollywood Hogan · 01-25-2018, 11:44 AM

Hi Folks - looking to get my front bumper resprayed to cover license plate holes and to shave the front side markers. Any recommendations for body shops in the Bay Area who can match Mineral White? I know MW is a hard color to match I'm looking for a really reputable shop. Thanks!

RJ's Paint Shop in Pleasanton is amazing and the #1 choice among any enthusiasts. A lot of high end and reputable repair shops also send their customers to RJ's. I had some minor imperfections on my front bumper and RJ resprayed it. They did an amazing job. Give him a call and tell him Can with the Sakhir Orange M4 sent you.

I was scrolling down to recommend RJ's when I saw this. 100% agree. Go here.

Cool. I will need to get my whole bumper resprayed.

European Collision Center if you're in San Francisco.

I was just involved in a hit and run. I too have a mineral white car.

OP did you get the bumper redone? How’d it turn out?

I’ll need to get it repaired soon. Has anyone tried the Weatherford BMW collision center?

Hollywood Hogan · 02-12-2018, 12:55 PM

I haven't. I need to head to RJs at some point but theyre only open M-F so that makes it difficult. I tried Benz Collision in Redwood City. I might try that..

Hey everyone,

I just had my rear bumper replaced. I had the car repaired at Weatherford BMW's collision center. I know mineral white is hard to match and the team there did a great job. At certain angles the color looks a bit darker than on the body. However, I also looked at the front bumper (from the factory, no repair), and I see the same thing. Must be how the paint reflects off of the different surfaces of the car. Giovanni had helped me out throughout the process. Great experience. Just an FYI for any Bay Area guys looking to get their cars repaired.

How much did you end up paying? I’m currently looking for a shop to paint my MW bumper

RugbyBro · 10-13-2020, 12:21 PM

+1 for Weatherford/Concord (both owned and operated by Sunwise). OE and they machine paint match.

Fresh bumper spray was about $1,200-$1,500
