International Panel Shop —
Cape Town's trusted panel beaters —
over 20 years, now in Goodwood.

// 20 years in Goodwood

International Panel Shop has been repairing vehicles in Cape Town for over 20 years. Founded by Lance and Serena, the business started as Lance's Panel and Spray in Gardens, Cape Town — building the technical reputation and client base that the IPS name now carries. Just over a year ago the main workshop relocated to its current home in Goodwood, with a second quoting, drop-off and pick-up hub opened in Milnerton to serve the northern suburbs.

The business has a specific philosophy that sets it apart from the dealership repair model: if a car is repairable, it should be repaired. That is not as obvious as it sounds in an industry where insurers often push for write-offs on vehicles that a skilled panel shop can restore to standard. IPS has a documented track record of bringing insurance quotes down significantly by repairing structural components that would otherwise be replaced — and saving vehicles their owners would have lost.

Services

// What IPS repairs

Two branches across Cape Town

// Goodwood and Milnerton

Repairs on credit — Mobicred

// Pay monthly for your repair

Accidents are unplanned. IPS offers an alternative to paying the full repair cost upfront through Mobicred — South Africa's leading credit provider for online purchases. If you already have a Mobicred account, you can use your existing credit limit to pay for panel beating, bumper repairs, and resprays through flexible monthly instalments.

The process: approve your quote from IPS, select Mobicred via the PayFast secure payment link, and pay manageable monthly instalments at the standard Mobicred rate. Your vehicle is ready when the repairs are complete — not when the full amount has been settled.

Free vehicle collection — repairs above R10,000

// They come to you

For repairs valued at R10,000 and above, IPS arranges an Uber directly to your location to collect your vehicle. Once the repairs are complete, the vehicle is delivered back to your door. For anyone without alternative transport during the repair period — or who simply values not having to make two trips to Goodwood — this removes the last logistical friction from the process.

Right to Repair certified

// Your warranty is safe

International Panel Shop is accredited under the Right to Repair programme — meaning repairs completed at IPS do not void your vehicle's manufacturer warranty. The Right to Repair movement in South Africa establishes that consumers can have their vehicles repaired at independent workshops without forfeiting warranty coverage, regardless of what dealership service centres may imply.
