Description

Opened in March 2015 under the diligent leadership of Carlos, our journey at the auto body shop began with a vision to deliver exceptional collision repair services. Carlos’s path to leadership was unexpected; following the loss of his father at 17, his plans for college shifted. The recession of 2008 posed further challenges, but a family friend and veteran in vehicle repair offered Carlos an opportunity that ignited his passion in this field. This twist of fate led him to open his own shop at 24, now flourishing with two locations.

Excellent Service


Oct 27, 2024

A little gem on Highway 290 West. I took my car in and was very happy with the results. The Team did an excellent job on my car. Went beyond what I expected. They take pride in their business and value their customers! Would recommend it to anyone!

Amazing Service and Work, starting with how awesome Rod Jimenez was at providing excellent service from the first minute, made this experience great! My car is a 14 year old silver Acura, with a color that is difficult to match, and these guys nailed it!! Perfect paint job, that matches the original paint. To top it all off, they were almost 50% less than their competitors. Highly recommend this place!!

Best repair shop experience I've ever had. Super chill, great service, hopefully I don't need them again but life happens and this will be my first stop.


Oct 27, 2024

Solid body work for a great price. Staff was great and very communicative had a family owned business feel. Painting half the car took less than a week and looks great. Even came in about 10% under quote. Far better experience than other shops in the area I have used before.

Great service! Very professional, my lovely car looks like new! And they did all the work in a few days! I Totally recommend this body shop!


Sep 27, 2024

Rod took care of me from start to finish. My 2011 Lexus needed collision repair and he exceeded my expectations on all levels. Car looks better than ever. Will be returning here anytime I need any body repairs without question!


Sep 27, 2024

Thank you very much Rod and the team!!! It was a rewarding experience at U First Auto Body Shop. I took my daughter's car to this shop after an incident with the windshield, when a rock fell on and cracked. I was very impressed with the impeccable service. Rod was very professional, he explained the entire process to me and I had no surprises regarding costs. The price was fair compared to other shops I checked. Additionally, they completed the work before the promised deadline. Totally efficient. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone needing a quality repair for their vehicle.


Sep 27, 2024

This was the second time we have used UFirst. By far the best body shop business I have had the pleasure to work with. Their prices were fair and their work first rate!


Sep 27, 2024

U First Auto Body provided exceptional service to repair my car after a rear end collision. They provided a detailed estimate (that they stuck to) and explained the process well. My car was even finished a day early! They even cleaned her up a bit….made her look spiffy. ☺️


Sep 27, 2024

Wow, took my F150 in for new paint on my hood that had major clear coat scaling. They sanded it all down, primed it, painted it and clear coated it. They polished the clear coat which made the shine deep and perfect since my paint is dark blue almost black with flakes in it you can really see the difference from the other paint on the truck. They even took the haze off my headlights for free. Rod and his staff had all this finished in just two days. Extremely satisfied and would recommend them again and again!

I had a wonderful experience today Which is saying a lot because typically servicing my car is on the bottom of the list of things I like to do. Staff and atmosphere was clean and welcoming, good communication, and super fast service! Highly recommend


Aug 27, 2024

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Rod and his team. They have worked on bothine and my husband's car and they have done fabulous work on both. Rod was very professional at his work and works with you. Jr has been helpful and professional as well. Great job to Rod and his team. Thank you for hard work and time you have spent helping and working with me.

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would! The customer Service I experienced here was top tier! I had initially called to see if I could get a quote over the phone on a new bumper or if I had to bring in my car so they could lay eyes on it before giving me a price. Luckily, I was in the area and headed straight over. The gentleman was so nice and once I showed him my poor little bumper (zip ties and all) he informed me that they could look at it free of charge and determine next steps. 20 short minutes later, he comes back to tell me that they were able to pop back in my bumper and even added some screws to ensure it wouldn’t hang down anymore! It looks seamless and brand new! I was so grateful that they took the time to help me even though I told him I was on a budget. Lo and behold, he didn’t charge me a single penny to fix it! What a kind, kind man!! Highly recommend this place and will be returning for all my body work!

My experience with Rod and the team at U First Auto Body Shop has been nothing short of amazing! Great communication, detail orientated, and transparent. Rod evaluated my car and provided a quick repair turnaround. They even exceeded the original turnaround time they provided to me. Through out the whole process, Rod kept me updated on my repairs and any information that was sent to insurance. My car looked brand new after the repairs. This place is a family-owned business and they make you feel like family too. I definitely recommend them!

Excellent service, high quality work and incredible attention to detail! I was one of the first customers at this newly opened location of U First Auto Body. After significant frustration with other local shops in the Dripping Springs area (who didn't even have the time to evaluate my car), I took a chance. A few months later, the same car that was repaired was the victim of a hit and run, and I needed their services again. On both occasions, they exceeded my expectations. Rodrigo, who assisted me, took the time from the very beginning to work on a budget that accommodated my needs. The entire process was transparent, and when I picked up my car, it was spotless. Rodrigo and his team went the extra mile to ensure the seams were aligned and the paint merge was seamless. They truly made the whole experience stress-free and care about the quality of their work. While this location is newer, they have another location in South Austin with rave reviews (check it out). I highly recommend them for their outstanding service and attention to detail.

Great experience. The color match and finish look perfect. The job was completed two days earlier than estimated. Communication was good. The staff is great to work with and the price was good.

I recently visited U First Auto Body in Dripping Springs for the second time, and once again, they exceeded my expectations. Rodrigo, who assisted me, took the time from the very beginning to work on a budget that accommodated my needs. The entire process was transparent, and when I picked up my car, it was spotless. Rodrigo and his team went the extra mile to ensure the seams were aligned and the paint merge was seamless. They truly made the whole experience stress-free. I highly recommend U First Auto Body on US Highway 290 for their outstanding service and attention to detail.

Dropped my truck off to get a little work done while I was on vacation. They got everything done with a lifetime warranty and opened early for me to pick it up.


Jun 27, 2024

Highly recommend this shop for collision repairs. As a young woman going to body shops have a negative stigma but these guys rock and won’t take advantage of you. The first shop I went to tried to quote me $7k but Rod was a stand up guy and really helped me out with my repair. I ended up paying $4.9k for extensive damage and when I’m my car was done they also cleaned the inside and washed the outside. Highly recommend these guys for your car repair needs. Stand up business.


Jun 27, 2024

I had a good experience with Rod and his crew. My truck had extensive hail damage and U First Auto Body Shop came to the rescue…….. Great Work……… Thanks, jw


Jun 27, 2024

This is the first time I’ve ever had to get work done on my car, and U First was so kind and helpful in the process and very fair in the pricing. They explained everything to me and made sure the process was quick and easy. I hopefully won’t have to come back, but if I ever do, I know I’ll be in good hands! Highly recommend, thank y’all so much!


May 27, 2024

I brought my truck in to repair the bumper and these guys went above and beyond. I have used them a few times from their Burleson location and have always had an excellent experience. They are honest and very friendly. If you need work done, I highly recommend them.

Recently I had the pleasure of visiting U First body shop to get repairs done on my wife’s Range Rover, and I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. Rod and Carlos were fantastic throughout the process—extremely responsive and always ready to assist. They made sure to use factory parts, ensuring the car remained as authentic as possible. The attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident in the final results. Highly recommend this place if you need top-notch work on your vehicle!


May 27, 2024

Taking my vehicle to U First body shop turned out to be an exceptionally incredible experience. Rod and Carlos were outstanding in their service. They handled each repair with the utmost care and precision, ensuring everything was impeccably aligned with the vehicle’s high standards. Their professional demeanor and meticulous attention to detail not only restored my car but also provided a deep sense of reassurance. Their dedication made the entire process seamless and truly remarkable. I highly recommend them - you’re in the best hands!


May 27, 2024

What a great experience. Carlos and staff made me feel very comfortable and at ease. They quoted me and came out just as indicated. My 18 year old 2006 BMW Z4 roadster had an accumulated number of bumps and bruises over its life and a front end that had seen it's share of parking blocks, low clearance scrapes, and other assorted mishaps. The U First Auto Body Shop made it look brand new. When I went to pick it up it was like picking up my car for the first time. Really a great job and a great experience. I would highly recommend them!! Thanks for returning me a car that I can to show and show off.


Apr 27, 2024

Great and fast service. We were in a time crunch and the guys at U First Auto had my mom's car ready before the deadline! Thank you for taking care of us as always. We will continue to be loyal clients.


Apr 27, 2024

I unfortunately have been in several accidents over the years, but knowing that I can rely on Carlos and Rod over at U First Auto Body truly helps me get through those difficult times! Amazing work, done in an extremely timely manner (often times quicker than expected). 10/10 recommend to anyone needing collision work. My family has also been coming here for years 😊


Jan 27, 2024

Great paint and body shop. More importantly, awesome team to work with and stoked to have them in the neighborhood.


Nov 27, 2023

Great owner running a great business! They worked on my vehicles at their Burleson rd location and I'm excited to see their business grow to a second location. Personally use and will always recommend U First Auto Body to my friends and family.
