A Lot to Celebrate!

THE “GUYS” at Local Guys Collision are in high spirits these days and rightly so. Not only are they celebrating their 2 year business anniversary, they have also received the very special “Shop of the Year” award from the Tennessee Collision Repairers Association. All of this is on top of becoming one of Farm Bureau’s recommended direct repair shops - meaning less claim hassles with adjusters for their customers. Nice!

After opening in the Bearden area, Local Guys Collision has been gaining customers along with a stellar reputation as advocates for industry standard safe repair. This includes using only certified OEM parts that are required to pass manufacturer safety tests. With more than 29 years specializing in collision repair and services, owner Ken Manns believes that “manufacturer guidelines” were developed for a specific reason - to keep vehicles and the people who drive them safe.

Many insurance companies recommend, or convey, that they will only cover the cost of (usually less expensive) non-OEM parts, which may or may not pass manufacturer tests to ensure safety. Local Guys Collision advocates for their customers, following a “by the book” approach to ensure that the work they do is correct, safe, and complies with all industry and manufacturer standards. Trust and safety adherence - Local Guys has you and your vehicle’s best interest at heart.

As the parents of a veteran, Local Guys is also involved with Team RWB and the Irreverent Warriors organizations, who support the veteran community in East Tennessee, and always offers veterans a 10% discount on their repair total.

Conveniently located in the former Bearden Benz location, Local Guys Collision is I-car trained and certified, providing full-service automotive body repairs, custom paint work, glass replacement, paintless dent repairs, and mechanical safety inspections.

To them, the handshake in the center of their logo is a symbol of what they believe in and how they do business.
