Providing you certainty and peace of mind for every vehicle
We are approved repairers for all insurance providers because we are licensed repairers under WA’s Motor Vehicle Repairer’s Act (License no: MRB 7666). Insurers we frequently work with include: RAC, SGIO, QBE, Shannons, CommInsure, CGU, IAG etc..
Firstly, ensure the repairer you choose is a licensed Motor Vehicle Repairer in Western Australia. Licensed repairers will display the Licensed Repairer logo, their number (Our license no is MRB 7666), or their License Certificate at their premises. This confirms that the repairer’s facilities are authorised and equipped to carry out repairs on your vehicle. Additionally, do some research—check online reviews or ask your mechanic or family for recommendations to find a repairer with a strong reputation for quality work.
Secondly, you can have confidence knowing that the Motor Vehicle Information Scheme (MVIS), introduced in 2022, mandates vehicle manufacturers to share critical repair and service data with all panel shops and repairers—not just those preferred by insurers or affiliated with manufacturers.
This is great news for consumers, as it ensures that any licensed panel shop you choose will have access to necessary repair data to provide safe, high-quality repairs.
Lodging a claim is easy, simply:
Once your claim has been submitted, please contact our team and provide your claim number. We will manage the remainder of the process on your behalf.

Yes, you can still nominate Dynamic Autobody as your ‘chosen repairer’ for smash repairs. Most insurers provide a ‘choice of repairer’ option which allows you to select a reputable repairer you trust for your vehicle repairs.
While your insurance may suggest a "preferred repairer," you are not obligated to choose them. A preferred repairer is one that has an agreement with the insurance company, which helps streamline workflow in exchange for lower repair invoices. However, this arrangement can lead to tighter budgets and rushed timelines, potentially compromising repair quality and safety. It’s essential to select your own repairer to ensure the quality of repairs, the safety of you and your family, and the resale value of your vehicle.
