Trying to get a rebuilt title

Our take

Navigating the process of obtaining a rebuilt title can be frustrating, especially when state guidelines require inspections from certified Salvage Repair shops. You may find yourself in a situation where your car has minor cosmetic damage, such as small dents and paint chips, while the frame and drivetrain remain in good condition. It’s understandable to be wary of shops that might prioritize profit over genuine repairs, especially when you feel capable of handling less severe issues yourself. Many drivers share your concerns, questioning whether all repair work is necessary, especially when they observe other vehicles with minor damage still on the road.

per the state guidelines they tell you to get the car repaired and inspected by an certified Salvage Repair shop, I got a car that has minor cosmetic damage (paint chips and small dents), the frame and drivetrain are in good condition, but its a salvage non rebuilt title, has anyone went to one of these shops, I don't wanna be paying these guys for their "repairs" when they're just trying to get money out of me, I just need the inspection, everything else I can just do on my own, ik they say you're not allowed to do the repairs if you're not certified which I understand if it's some serious collision work but, in all honestly a tiny dent in my fender meanwhile I see Camrys driving with no bumpers on the freeway, the state is a circus and I don't like wasting my time and money with greedy people. Just need to know if any of the places offer a no bs inspection to get me on my way to getting the car roadworthy.
