Michigan collision repair. This is your invitation.
Have you been curious about the Michigan Auto Body Association? MABA is building something our state has needed for a long time: a strong, independent voice dedicated to the people and businesses that make Michigan collision repair work.
On October 23, we are bringing Michigan's collision repair community together for an afternoon of conversation, networking, education, and an inside look at one of the most impressive automotive facilities in Michigan.
Whether you are a shop owner, manager, estimator, body technician, painter, collision repair student or instructor, distributor, supplier, industry partner, or simply someone who cares about the future of collision repair in Michigan, you belong in the room.
Tour America's Most Wanted 4x4
Our hosts at America's Most Wanted 4x4 (AMW4x4) are known worldwide for building some of the most impressive HEMI-powered Jeeps on the road. And they are opening their doors to us.
Attendees will have the opportunity to tour the AMW4x4 facility and get a behind-the-scenes look at how these incredible vehicles are built; from teardown through final completion. See the craftsmanship, processes, equipment and people behind these world-class builds firsthand.
If you are passionate about automotive craftsmanship, this tour alone is worth the trip.
Come Meet the People Behind MABA
Members of the MABA Board of Directors will be there throughout the event. This is your opportunity to meet us face to face, ask questions, tell us what challenges your business is facing, and learn what we are working to accomplish for Michigan's collision repair industry.
Come have a conversation and decide for yourself whether MABA is something you want to be part of.
See What MABA Membership Can Bring to Your Business
MABA is affiliated with the Society of Collision Repair Specialists (SCRS), connecting Michigan shops with one of the most respected collision repair organizations in the country.
During the Open House, we will connect live with SCRS via Zoom to talk about the resources and opportunities available through our affiliation. Representatives will also join us to discuss 401(k) retirement and health plan benefit programs available to MABA members, including opportunities for shops to provide meaningful benefits to their employees.
Benefits Worth the Trip
For shop owners competing to recruit and retain talented people, a group 401(k) and health plan can be a real advantage. Bring your questions about coverage options for your shop and your team.
Help Build the Association Michigan Collision Repair Deserves
MABA is still at the beginning of its story, which means the people who get involved now have an opportunity to help shape what this association becomes.
- We need members.
- We need sponsors.
- We need suppliers and industry partners.
- We need experienced professionals willing to share their voices, and we need the next generation of technicians and collision professionals to know there is an industry worth building a career in.
Most importantly, we need Michigan's collision repair community in the same room.
Come Hungry. We'll Feed You.
We will have pizza and soft drinks available for our guests. There is no cost to attend, and you do not have to be a MABA member.
Come meet the Board. Tour an incredible facility. Learn about MABA and SCRS. Meet other people who care about this industry. Have some pizza. Ask questions. Bring your ideas.
