C.A.R Cosmetic Auto Repairs

Mobile Car Body Repairs in Birmingham

Birmingham's mobile bodyshop for bumper scuffs, alloy wheel damage, dents, scratches, stone chips and SMART repairs. We come to your home or workplace across Birmingham and the wider West Midlands.

Birmingham's Mobile Bodyshop Alternative

Birmingham traffic doesn’t do your paintwork any favours. Tight terraced streets in Moseley and Kings Heath, multi-storey ramps in the city centre, supermarket bays in Selly Oak, kerbs everywhere — it only takes one careless moment for a scuff, chip or kerbed alloy to appear. C.A.R Cosmetic Auto Repairs is a mobile SMART repair specialist covering the whole Birmingham area. Instead of booking your car into a bodyshop for days and sorting out a lift home, our IMI-certified technicians come to your driveway or workplace, fix the damage on site and are usually gone within a few hours. Same colour-matched, bodyshop-quality finish — none of the hassle. From a bumper scuff in Edgbaston to a set of kerbed alloys in Sutton Coldfield, if it’s cosmetic, we can almost certainly sort it where your car is parked.

Birmingham Mobile Car Repair FAQs

It depends on the type, size and depth of the damage, so every job is priced individually. Send us a photo through our Get a Quote form and we will come back with a fixed, written price before any work begins. Mobile SMART repairs are usually much more cost-effective than a traditional bodyshop because we only treat the damaged area rather than respraying whole panels.
Most repairs take 2–6 hours and are finished in a single visit. A simple scratch or scuff can be done in 1–3 hours; a bumper or alloy repair usually 2–4. Paint needs time to cure, so that curing is built into the timing.
Yes. Done properly with manufacturer-grade paint and lacquer, a SMART repair is permanent and lasts as long as the surrounding factory paintwork. The key is a skilled, certified technician — which is exactly what turns up at your door.
For cosmetic damage — bumpers, alloys, panels, scratches and chips — yes. We use the same paint systems, primers and techniques as a fixed bodyshop. Where a job genuinely needs a spray booth, such as structural damage or a full panel replacement, we will tell you honestly rather than take it on.
Yes. We colour-match to your vehicle’s factory paint code using genuine mixed paint and blend into the surrounding panels where needed. On modern metallics and pearls the finished repair is essentially invisible.
No — a professional cosmetic repair helps protect resale value by keeping the car presentable, and it will not affect your manufacturer warranty because it does not touch mechanical or structural parts. Leaving damage unrepaired is far more likely to knock money off at sale or lease return.
Usually not. Most SMART repairs cost less than a typical insurance excess, so paying directly is often cheaper and protects your no-claims discount. We do also work with insurers and fleet providers if you have been referred through them.
Yes — that is the whole point of a mobile service. Roughly half our work is on customer driveways and half in staff car parks and business estates across the B postcode area. All we need is room to work around the car and a power point.
No. Your quoted price is the price you pay — travel is included within our coverage area. And because we come to you rather than you driving into the city centre, there is no Birmingham Clean Air Zone charge to think about.
