Fiberglass Repairs for Trucks in Rockaway NY

Fast Action Body Repair repairs damaged fiberglass truck hoods and body panels at our Queens shop. We assess chips, cracks and impact damage to determine whether repair or replacement is appropriate.

ASSESS FIBERGLASS DAMAGE BEFORE REPAIR

Cracks, chips and damaged mounting areas deserve a closer look. Our team examines the affected fiberglass part and discusses repair options. Appearance alone does not establish the condition of the whole truck.
