Reassemble vehicles to OEM standards with attention to fit, finish, and quality. Perform the final vehicle wash and quality inspection before delivery. Maintain a clean and organized work area.

At Bodylines, you'll work alongside experienced professionals in a supportive, family-like environment where your contributions matter. Every member of our team plays an important role in delivering the level of quality our customers have trusted for more than 30 years.
