About Us: Auto Body Shop Parts
Our Journey
Auto Body Shop Parts was founded in 2012 with a simple yet powerful vision: to become the go-to resource for all things auto body repair and replacement parts. Our journey began as a passion project of two automotive enthusiasts who recognized a gap in the market for an extensive, reliable online database of auto body shop supplies.
Over the years, we have grown from a modest startup to a thriving online community, serving thousands of customers worldwide. In 2015, we hit our first significant milestone—a million page views, which solidified our position as a trusted source for auto body part information.
Mission and Purpose
Our mission is to empower auto body shops, mechanics, and DIY enthusiasts with accurate, up-to-date knowledge about various car parts, ensuring that every repair job is done efficiently and safely. We strive to bridge the information gap between manufacturers, suppliers, and consumers by providing a one-stop platform for all their part needs.
Core Values:
- Accuracy: We commit to delivering unbiased, reliable, and comprehensive information on auto body parts.
- Transparency: Our site ensures full transparency in pricing and product sourcing.
- Community: Auto Body Shop Parts fosters a sense of community among users, encouraging knowledge sharing.
Filling the Gap
The internet is brimming with automotive forums and blogs, but we identified a critical need for a centralized, organized platform dedicated solely to auto body shop parts. Many websites offer generic advice or focus on sales, leaving a void in specific, detailed information about parts compatibility, availability, and pricing.
