The Golden Hammer and Golden Gun are the ultimate apprentice awards in New Zealand's collision repair sector.

Lachlan Chatfield and Emma Simpson each hold their 2025 Collision Repair Association’s (CRA) Apprentice of the Year Award.

The 2026 CRA Conference will be held in Melbourne, Australia on Friday 15 May 2026.

MITO is proud to once again sponsor these the Golden Hammer and Golden Gun, with the winners to be announced at the 2026 CRA Gala Awards evening, to be held in Melbourne later that evening.

The CRA Conference coincides with the AAAA (Australian Automobile Aftermarket Association) and Collison Repair Expo, both held in the Melbourne Exhibition Centre.
