Repair or bodywork service

This is the combination I would normally expect to find, even though the term compostura is not used commonly in Spain, the meaning seems "extractable". It just strikes me as a little bit strange that a repair shop should offer alternative names for its services, although of course if it is offering two different services, then why do they use "or"...

No doubt someone familiar with Latin American usage will be able to correct me/clarify this.
