Collision & Body Shop
Expert Collision Repair, Right Here in Lowell
Baker Collision Center’s I-CAR certified technicians are trained to current repair procedures and safety standards, so every vehicle that comes through our shop is returned to pre-accident condition — not just made to look that way. We repair domestic, import, and luxury cars, trucks, and SUVs of every make and model, and we serve drivers throughout Lowell, Grand Rapids, Ada, Ionia, Hastings, and the surrounding West Michigan communities.
You Choose Your Repair Shop — Your Insurance Doesn’t
Your insurance company can suggest a repair shop, but the decision is always yours to make. Baker Collision Center works directly with every insurance carrier — we coordinate the claim, provide a free estimate before any work begins, and keep you updated throughout the repair. It’s worth checking your policy before you file a claim: some policies cover only “parts of like kind and quality,” while others specify original equipment (OE) parts. If you’re not sure which applies to you, ask us — we can help you read the fine print and request OE parts from your insurer if your policy allows it.
Parts That Match Your Vehicle, Not Just Your Budget
On GM vehicles, we use GM Genuine Parts — engineered to the same specifications as the parts that came on your vehicle, so fit, finish, and crash-tested structural integrity match the original. Non-OE parts can vary in fit and don’t carry the same guarantee. For every other make we service, we use manufacturer-matched parts and OEM repair procedures, so your repair meets the same standard no matter what you drive.

Common Questions About Collision Repair at Baker
Can I choose my own body shop after an accident?
Yes. Your insurance company can recommend a shop, but the decision is yours. Baker Collision Center works directly with your insurer so choosing us adds no extra hassle to your claim.
Will my insurance pay for repairs at Baker Collision Center?
In most cases, yes. We work with every insurance carrier and coordinate the claim directly to minimize your out-of-pocket steps. Review your policy for the specifics of your parts and labor coverage.
Do you use OEM or GM Genuine Parts?
On GM vehicles, yes — ask for GM Genuine Parts on your repair order. Some insurance policies cover only non-OE “like kind and quality” parts unless you specifically request OE parts, so it’s worth checking your policy or asking us to help you compare.
Can you repair cars that aren’t a Buick or GMC?
Yes. Baker Collision Center repairs all makes and models — domestic, import, and luxury cars, trucks, and SUVs — using manufacturer-matched parts and repair procedures.
Do you offer free collision repair estimates?
Yes. Estimates are free, and getting one doesn’t commit you to having the repair done here.
How long does collision repair take?
It depends on the damage. Minor cosmetic repairs are often finished in a few days; structural or frame damage takes longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline once we’ve inspected your vehicle.
What should I do right after an accident?
Make sure everyone is safe, document the damage, and file your claim. Then call us at (616) 421-8568 for a free estimate before you authorize any repairs.
