Car Repair Estimate & Parts

Estimate repair costs before you buy, bid, or rebuild.

Upload vehicle photos and a VIN to review preliminary repair estimates, sourced parts options, and suggested max bids for salvage auction vehicles.

AutoEstimatePro helps vehicle owners, body shops, and auction buyers organize repair questions and build a more informed budget before deciding what to do next.

PHOTO-BASED REPAIR REPORTS
• Upload vehicle damage photos or listing screenshots.
• Enter a VIN to help identify the vehicle.
• Review suggested Repair, Replace, or Inspect actions.
• See estimated parts costs, labor hours, body and paint labor, and paint materials.
• Explore repair guidance and potential hidden-damage risks.

UNDERSTAND THE DAMAGE LABELS
Primary: visible damage identified in photos.
Related: nearby components that may be affected based on the impact location and visible damage patterns.
Inferred: potential hidden damage suggested by the impact pattern, but not confirmed in photos.

Related and inferred findings are possibilities, not confirmed diagnoses. Review inspection flags with a qualified repair professional before making repair or safety decisions.

EXPLORE SOURCED PARTS OPTIONS
Find available OEM, used, and aftermarket parts options with supplier pricing and purchase links when available. Use the AI Part Finder to help locate parts for your vehicle, including optional ZIP-based local salvage pricing.

Confirm prices, availability, condition, fitment, and shipping with the supplier before purchasing. Parts suggestions are starting points for your own verification.

PLAN YOUR AUCTION BUDGET
Researching a vehicle on Copart, IAA, Manheim, or another marketplace? Look beyond the winning bid.

Review estimated vehicle values, repair costs, and flip, rebuild, or part-out scenarios. Use the Max Bid calculator to work backward from your expected resale value and profit target. Include repairs, transportation, estimated auction fees, and other costs to review a suggested bid ceiling based on your inputs.

Modeled values and max bids are planning estimates. They do not guarantee resale value, profitability, or a safe purchase.

TOOLS AND AI BUYING GUIDANCE
Find the Max Bid calculator and AI Auction Assistant in the Tools tab. Ask about budget considerations, salvage titles, damage risks, seller questions, and listing details you paste into chat.

The assistant offers text guidance. It does not retrieve live auction listings, verify vehicle history, or inspect photos. Sign-in is required and usage limits apply. Chat does not use report credits.

FOR BODY SHOPS
Use customer photos to prepare a structured first draft for your estimator. Review parts, labor, paint, and inspection flags before preparing your final quote. Your shop owns the inspection, repair decisions, and final price. Website widgets and business lead tools are managed through the web platform.

REPORTS AND SUBSCRIPTIONS
Buy an individual report or choose an available report subscription. Current prices, included reports, and purchase terms are shown in the app before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled. Manage or cancel Google Play subscriptions through your Google Play account.

IMPORTANT
AI estimates and advice are preliminary. They are not guaranteed quotes, valuations, or safety assessments. Photos may miss structural, mechanical, or hidden damage. Obtain a professional inspection before bidding, buying, or authorizing repairs.

VIN identification is not a complete vehicle-history report. Verify title requirements, auction fees, and listing details independently.
