I-CAR Certification
Why I-CAR Certification Matters for You
When you bring your vehicle to i.g. Burton Auto Body Shops, you’re trusting us not just to make it look good—but to restore its safety, structural integrity, and value. That’s why every i.g. Burton location is I-CAR certified — a mark of training, accountability, and excellence in collision repair.
What Is I-CAR?
I-CAR (Inter-Industry Conference on Auto Collision Repair) is a nonprofit organization that sets the gold standard for collision repair education and certification. Through ongoing training and assessment, I-CAR ensures technicians are prepared to handle modern materials (aluminum, high-strength steel, plastic), advanced vehicle systems, and evolving safety technologies.
What Certification Means for You
- 1. Repairs That Meet Manufacturer Standards
I-CAR training ensures our technicians follow OEM-approved methods — so your vehicle is repaired the way its maker intended. This helps maintain safety systems, structural integrity, and resale value.
- 2. Up-to-Date Expertise
Automobile engineering evolves fast. Certified technicians stay current with new repair techniques, tools, and materials — essential for today’s vehicles, especially with advanced sensors and lightweight materials
- 3. Confidence & Transparency
Certification is a visible pledge to you that we invest in training and accountability. When you see the I-CAR logo, you know we’ve met rigorous benchmarks in structure, refinish, and repair processes.
- 4. Safer Driving After Repair
Proper repair is about more than appearance. Certified repairs help ensure that airbags, crumple zones, sensors, and structural members function correctly after a collision — not just aesthetically, but in future crashes.
How i.g. Burton Applies I-CAR Certification

- Full-Service Assurance — From bodywork to paint, glass, dent repair — every step we take reflects I-CAR protocols.

In Short
Choosing an I-CAR certified body shop means choosing quality, safety, and peace of mind. At i.g. Burton, our certification is your assurance: your car is in knowledgeable hands, and the repairs will be done right — for looks and for protection.
