From a single dent to a totaled frame, Apex Collision Center handles every type of vehicle damage with precision and care. We work on all makes and models.
Full structural and cosmetic restoration after any accident. Our certified technicians bring your vehicle back to pre-collision condition using manufacturer-approved repair methods.
The gold standard for dings, door dents, and hail damage. PDR preserves your original factory paint while removing dents faster and for less cost than traditional methods.
Computer-matched color technology ensures a perfect blend every time. We use waterborne paint systems that match factory finish standards for a showroom-quality result.
Windshield chips, cracks, and full glass replacement handled in-house. We use OEM-quality glass and ensure proper ADAS sensor recalibration after every replacement.
Cracked, scuffed, or caved-in bumpers repaired or replaced with precision color matching. We restore your bumper to factory spec without cutting corners on materials.
Interior and exterior plastic components repaired rather than replaced whenever possible, saving you money while maintaining structural integrity and appearance.
Computerized frame straightening and unibody alignment restores your vehicle's structural integrity after a serious collision. Proper frame repair is critical for safety and resale value.
Most luxury and performance vehicles use aluminum body panels. Our aluminum welding certified technicians have the specialized training and dedicated equipment required to repair these vehicles correctly.
Our Credentials
In Lake County, very few shops carry the certifications that Apex Collision Center holds. These credentials are not just plaques on a wall. They represent thousands of hours of training, strict facility requirements, and an ongoing commitment to doing the job right.
Mercedes-Benz mandates that only approved facilities repair their vehicles. As a Mercedes Certified collision center, we use factory-approved repair procedures, genuine parts, and manufacturer-specific equipment. If you drive a Mercedes in Lake County, this is the only shop that meets the brand's own standards.
OEM Approved FacilityI-CAR Gold Class is the collision repair industry's highest training standard. Less than 10% of body shops in the United States earn this designation. It requires every technician and estimator to complete ongoing training in the latest vehicle technology and repair techniques every single year.
Top 10% NationwideAluminum requires a completely separate set of tools, training, and a dedicated contamination-free workspace. Without proper certification, aluminum repairs can compromise the structural integrity of a vehicle. Our certified welders handle everything from Ford F-150 beds to luxury aluminum-intensive platforms correctly and safely.
