Accreditations
Manufacturer-Approved Repairer You Can Trust
West Perth Panel & Paint is proudly recognised by leading European manufacturers, including Audi, Volkswagen, Skoda and CUPRA. Our accreditations reflect our commitment to strict repair standards, ongoing training and the use of approved tools and genuine parts.
Repairs carried out to exact manufacturer specifications.
Access to specialised tools, technology and ongoing technician training.
Approved repairs that maintain safety, performance and warranty integrity.
How We Earn Factory Accreditation
Accreditation isn’t a membership you pay for. It’s an audited process with three stages:
The manufacturer reviews the existing facility against its own equipment and safety specification, including aluminium handling and mixed-material repair bays.
The repairer fits out the workshop to match. In 2017, we completed a full workshop overhaul to meet the requirements of Audi, Volkswagen, Skoda and CUPRA.
Technicians complete the manufacturer’s own training and the manufacturer carries out regular compliance checks to keep the accreditation current.

Audi Approved panel repairer
In early 2017, West Perth Panel & Paint set out to become an Audi Approved Repairer in Perth, working closely with Audi Australia to meet strict global standards. This involved a complete overhaul and refit of our workshop, ensuring it aligned with Audi’s advanced repair methods, equipment requirements and quality benchmarks.
As a result, we were proud to be official recognised within the Audi Approved Panel Repairer Network. Today, our state-of-the-art facility and factory-trained team of technicians deliver precision Audi accident repairs using genuine parts and approved techniques.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Does "Factory Accredited" Mean For A Panel Repairer?
It means the manufacturer has certified the repairer’s equipment, parts and technician training against its own standard, and audits that standard on an ongoing basis. It isn’t self-declared.
Does Factory Accreditation Only Matter For Audi, VW, Skoda Or CUPRA Owners?
The accreditation itself is brand-specific, but the standard behind it, genuine parts, approved methods, trained technicians, applies to every vehicle repaired in our workshop.
Will Using An Accredited Repairer Affect My Insurance Claim?
No. We work directly with insurers through our quoting software, and an accredited repair is accepted the same as any other approved repair.
Does An Accredited Repair Protect My Vehicle's Warranty?
Yes. Genuine parts and manufacturer-approved methods are generally what keep a manufacturer warranty intact after an accident repair.
It also helps maintain manufacturer warranties, including paint and body protection, while ensuring your vehicle is return to pre-accident condition. With access to the latest factory training, technology and repair procedures, you can be confident your Audi or Volkswagen is repaired the right way.
How Can We Help You?
Accident Repair Specialist
From car park scrapes to major collision damage, our shop repairs a range of vehicles, including aluminium and plastic-intensive vehicles that need specialist handling. We work directly with your insurer, so your claim moves quickly and your vehicle comes back as it should.
Auto Body Refinishes
A repair is only as good as the paintwork that finishes it. We use the PPG Global Refinish System with Envirobase waterborne paint, colour-matched to your vehicle’s pre-accident finish, so the repair disappears.
Replacement Vehicle
If the accident wasn’t your fault, you shouldn’t be without a car while we fix it. We arrange a replacement vehicle throughout the duration of your repair, so getting to work, completing school runs and everyday life carries on as normal.
Paint Protection
If your vehicle had a ceramic coating pre-accident, the repaired panels can be reapplied to match the rest of the car once the new paint has fully cured. We use a graphene ceramic coating that creates a hard, glass-like layer, resisting UV fade and stopping contaminants bonding to the paint between washes.
