BMW Auto Body Repair in Burlingame, CA
Multi Craft Auto Body & Collision (Serving the San Francisco Bay Area)
Owning a BMW is about more than driving; it’s about experiencing precision, performance, and craftsmanship every time you’re behind the wheel. But even the Ultimate Driving Machine® isn’t immune to accidents — whether it’s a fender scrape in downtown San Francisco, a rear-end collision on Highway 101, or frame damage from a major impact. That’s where Multi Craft Auto Body & Collision in Burlingame, CA comes in.
​
We specialize in BMW auto body repair for the entire San Francisco Bay Area, delivering factory-level accuracy, luxury refinishing, and advanced technology calibration. From the BMW 3 Series to the X5, 7 Series, M Models, and even the all-electric BMW i4 or iX, our mission is to restore your BMW to its pre-accident beauty and safety.
Why BMW Collision Repair Requires Specialization
BMWs aren’t built like standard vehicles — and they shouldn’t be repaired like them either. Each BMW is designed with advanced materials, complex engineering, and performance-driven technology that demand precise repair procedures.
High-Strength Materials
BMW structures often blend ultra-high-strength steels, aluminum, carbon fiber, and magnesium. These materials reduce weight while maximizing crash protection. Repairing them requires specialized training, sectioning guidelines, and sometimes non-traditional adhesives and rivets.
Advanced Electronics
From iDrive systems to BMW Active Driving Assistant, today’s BMWs are rolling computers. Sensors, cameras, and radar units are integrated into bumpers, grilles, mirrors, and windshields. After an accident, restoring these systems requires precise ADAS calibrations.
​
Luxury Finishes
BMW paints feature deep metallics, unique hues, and glossy finishes. Achieving an invisible repair takes color-matching technology and professional blending. A mismatch in texture, gloss, or shade simply isn’t acceptable for a BMW owner.
​
Performance Integrity
BMWs are engineered for balance and handling. Even a slightly bent frame or misaligned suspension can affect performance. That’s why our repairs include structural measurements and alignments to restore “factory tight” handling.
