Based in New Lynn, Solis Panelbeaters Ltd takes pride in delivering quality panel, paint and automotive services that keep cars safe, properly maintained and well looked after. Whether it’s a private car or eet vehicle, the West Auckland team aims to provide honest advice, complete repairs done right, and caring customer service. Owner Michael Kim launched Solis Panelbeaters in March 2017 with a commitment to provide both quality repairs and responsive customer care throughout the repair process. Solis has since grown considerably - in sta numbers, equipment, technical capability and range of services provided – but that fundamental commitment remains the same. The Solis approach considers not just damage to the vehicle but also the person and business behind the vehicle. If it’s a eet or commercial vehicle, Solis will endeavour to get it repaired as soon as possible, without compromising repair quality or safety. Solis Panelbeaters has forged valuable client relationships in commercial transport. For example, Solis has been working with Auckland Co-operative Taxis since February 2024, providing repair services across their eet. “For taxi drivers and other commercial vehicle operators, their vehicle is an essential business asset and, in many cases, their livelihood,” says Michael. “We understand this very well, so wherever possible we prioritise taxi and commercial eet vehicle repairs. With a wide range of services within one operation, we can also reduce unnecessary delays. Our goal is to provide customers with a genuine one-stop automotive service.” Alongside collision repair and re nishing, Solis provides mechanical repairs, routine servicing, suspension work, wheel alignment, tyres, vehicle diagnostics, WOF-related services, windscreen replacement and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems calibration. “For eet customers, in particular, this can provide a signi cant advantage. Rather than having to coordinate separately with a panel shop, mechanic, tyre shop, glass company and ADAS calibration provider, Solis can manage the entire job as one coordinated process.” In March 2025, Michael completed the WATER-Q colour training course at the NOROO Re nish Training Centre in South Korea. NOROO is a leading Korean automotive paint manufacturer with WATER-Q being its agship waterborne nish system. “It was a very valuable experience for me,” he says. “When you learn requirements directly from the manufacturer and apply the product in accordance with their guidelines, you have a much better opportunity to achieve the level of colour match, nish, durability and consistency the system was deigned to deliver.” As a member of the Motor Trade Association, the Collision Repair Association and I-Car New Zealand, Solis takes industry standards very seriously. Their technicians are trained in the latest repair procedures and manufacturer requirements. With the continuing increase in electric and hybrid vehicles, together with increasingly complex electronics and safety technology, Solis is continuing to invest in training, diagnostics, calibration and equipment to ensure the business evolves alongside changes in vehicle technology. In 2027, Solis will be moving into a modern, purpose-built automotive facility, designed around the repair process to drive further improvements in productivity and e ciency.
