Crash Champions began in 1999 with a small shop in New Lenox, IL, New Lenox Auto Body. After over 15 years of owning a small neighborhood collision center, Matt Ebert wanted to bring his locally owned, small town collision center to towns throughout the Chicagoland area. Knowing that the name New Lenox Auto Body wouldn't work well in other areas, the name changed to Crash Champions-New Lenox and the brand began to grow. Since 2014, the Crash Champions organization has grown to have numerous shops throughout the Chicago market and has become a regional leader in collision repair. What makes Crash Champions truly different are the employees, each and every one embody everything that it takes to be a true Champion.
