Your 2013 Audi A8: the work
Searching for auto paint for the 2013 Audi A8? Here is how CarmaCars handles it. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
As a large sedan, it is a straightforward size for this work. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Getting a quote
Ask anything about the work in the request. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Keep your week on track
Add a rental to the same request as the work. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
What affects the price
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.
Planning around the work
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule.
Before you drop the car off
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Keeping it that way
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
Next step
Ready when you are: send the details of the car.
