Parkside Raceway is cool! We had a great time there and they've been racing RC cars there for a long time. It's a carpet off-road course which allows buggy and truck classes to run.

Parkside has always been honest and fair with me. Their workmanship is excellent and your vehicle is ready when promised. It's hard to find a good body shop these days, but Parkside is it!!! Thank you Tim for all of your help and thank you to the whole staff at Parkside! Mark Larson

They only take cash or check. To me, that s antiquated. Chick behind the desk didn t care enough to stop what she was doing to even say hello. After learning they don t take a card, I walked out. Don t think she thought twice. RUDE

I sent Tim a picture of my bumper damage via email and he provided a quote very quickly. I was able to bring it in the next morning and got a call it was fixed before lunch! He was able to get the paint scrapes off without sanding and repainting at 1/4 the cost of the original estimate. They also cleaned the rest of the car, it looked great! Definitely recommend this place!

Honest and transparent, beyond fair with pricing, had the opportunity to up charge me but was honest with me instead. I was quoted up to $2,200 from other shops but this lovely business got my problem handled for $100! I would recommend folks drive past auto shops to get to this one.Services: Painting, Body & TrimServices: Painting, Body & Trim

I highly recommend Parkside Auto! My wife had a minor fender bender back in December pulling out of our garage and I found Parkside Auto Body via my insurance company. I read all the reviews and decided to give them a try, plus they are located about a mile from my house which made it convenient. Working with Tim was a pleasure. He is a straight shooter and tells you like it is. I found him to be honest and sincere, no BS if you will. The work they did was perfect and I feel they are reasonable with their prices. You don't need any of the "big boys" or "big names" in auto body repair. Actually stay away from them and give Tim a try. They did great work and in a timely manner. However, since they are so busy (and so good) their lead time is about 4-5 weeks so plan ahead. I will go back to them in a heart beat if the occasion ever arises again. On a side note, they don't accept credit cards or debit cards - cash or checks only - so be prepared.

After reading all the great reviews I decided to bring my car to Parkside Auto Body. Tim at Parkside Auto Body got me scheduled and I dropped my car off early on Monday morning. The car was done on Friday. They did an outstanding job on my car. My car was delivered clean and they take pride in their workmanship. I wont hesitate to recommend Parkside Auto Body to friends and family.Services: Painting, Body & Trim

I had a Toyota Camry that got into a rear ended collision and my rear bumper cover broke. Tim in the park side auto shop was an excellent person who patiently answered all my questions and was customer centric and straight forward (no sales pitch as well). I got my car today and it looks like a new car. The amount they charged is also very reasonable compared to few other body shops I had inquired. I will definitely recommend this place to my friends.

Outstanding body work done here. Neighborhood place. I'd never consider another shop for auto body work. They are very busy but worth the wait.

I was rear ended in early January. My Jeep did not receive much damage, but there were a few noticeable dents on the rear door and the bumper. I had nothing but an amazing experience going through Parkside Auto Body to get my Jeep repaired back to new. Tim is knowledgeable, honest, and confident in his and his team s abilities. He estimated that my car would be in the shop for about 4 days, and he was dead on. I just picked it up today, and it looks brand new. He even cleaned the inside, washed the outside, and washed and shined my tires. Again, I could not have asked for a better experience in getting my Jeep repaired. I would, and will, recommend Parkside Auto Body over and over again!

My wife had driven our brand new 2016 Honda Pilot against a pillar and scratched up the rear driver side door. Being the guy that likes to try to DIY and save a buck, I was able to wet sand and buff out most of the scratches myself but I wasn't able to get the sand smudges out of the paint. I went to Parkside Auto Body, and they buffed out my shotty wet sand job on the spot in 5 minutes and did it for Free! I insisted on paying something but the owner refused payment for such a small job. Wish I took his name down, so I could personally thank him on here. Amazing customer experience. I also got a very reasonable quote for some other bodywork I was thinking about doing as well. Definitely recommend Parkside Auto Body if you're looking for good honest quality work at a reasonable price. I will definitely come back!

I have always been happy after bringing my vehicle into Parkside. They have a friendly and professional staff that is also very quick with all repairs. I am always surprised by how quickly they can get work done and the quality of work they consistently do. This will always be my go-to place for any and all repairs.

I was looking for a local body shop (shop local/ buy local) for some needed body work and paint and found Parkside (apparently, they dont advertise, but work on referrals and insurance work). I brought my Police Edition (auction-bought) Tahoe to them to spray the doors (black) in order to match the rest of the vehicle as well as to fix and repaint the front bumper (hacked up from decal removal). I received a fair estimate and was told the job would take 4 days to complete and that they had an appointment available about 4 weeks out. The alternative was to leave the vehicle with them and it would be worked on "between jobs". Well, I chose the latter and left my vehicle with them. Within the next 2 weeks, I received a call that the job was complete and that I could come settle up and pick up the truck. It turned out GREAT! The color and finish match were perfect and you cannot tell that it was resprayed. (They did the job right and took the doors apart in lieu of taping everything off) The result is a factory-fresh looking paint job and a satisfied customer. I would definitely recommend this shop for your autobody needs.

My Jeep Cherokee needed a rusted rear quarter panel replaced. 2 other body shops in the area were not interested in doing the work. Parkside was more than happy to quote and the cost was reasonable. Other than a bit of a wait to have the work done it is a pleasure doing business with Parkside.

I took my 2011 VW Jetta to Parkside Auto Body to get an estimate for a door dent and scratch repair. They were able to get me an appointment the very next day. They performed a "Paintless Dent Repair" on the rear driver side door. The car was ready the same day and the job they did was fantastic. The total cost was very fair and inexpensive. I would certainly go back to Parkside again.

Have taken a few different cars here over the years for various repairs (some small, some large). Always excellent work! Tim is very trustworthy and responsive!

Deep scratches from concrete post were no problem for Tim at Parkside. Baked on enamel paint as good as Ford original coating. Could not be more pleased.

Poor attitude from the front counter....Her:"can I help you "Me:"yes I need a windshield replaced"Her:"they aren't here, when they get here I'll let you know"I've never been here and honestly I'll never recommend it either.... Edit after Tim commented: Obviously Tim didn't read my review. The lady at your front counter doesn't know how to give any customer service. This actually has nothing to do with the windshield company that rents a space from your non-customer service .

Parkside does excellent work. We have 5 cars in the family and unfortunately several of them have needed body work (teenage drivers). They have always done a great job and I recommend them highly.

I have dealt with Tim for some time now and have never been disappointed. The only issue is the girl at the front desk who should GROW A PERSONALITY!
