Your 7 Series and paint work
Auto paint for the 2012 BMW 7 Series: tell us about the car, and a person replies with a price and a time. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What happens after you ask
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
Keep your week on track
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Keeping it that way
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
On the day
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
How the price is set
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Timing
We keep you posted if the timing changes. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.

Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
