Our story

The shop on Woodruff Ave

Ideal Body & Paint is a body and paint shop on Woodruff Ave in Downey. We handle collision damage, dents and fenders, bumpers, vandalism repair, and full refinishing: the work that decides whether a car looks repaired or looks untouched.

Customers ask for David by name, and that's the whole model here: you talk to the person doing the work. You get told exactly what's wrong, no guessing and no padding, and the car goes back on the road in days rather than weeks.

We've taken on cars other shops called finished. One customer came to us with a vehicle that was basically totaled, and drives it today almost as if nothing had happened. We're open Monday through Friday and Saturday mornings — call and we'll take a look.

  • Straight answers on what's actually wrong
  • Most jobs turned around in days
  • Open Saturday mornings

What customers say

“They did a great work on my car, I took my car in due to being vandalize and David did great work of getting it fixed and it looks new again, the paint job is looks excellent. The work only took a few days. David provides excellent service.”

Jose Partida

“I know that my car was beyond repair and was basically totaled. However, they decided to take on the challenge and now I drive around almost as if nothing has happened. Thank God for Ideal Body and Paint because without them I would no longer have a car to drive.”

Marty Campos
