The 2020 BMW i8: Auto paint
For your 2020 BMW i8, paint work starts with a short request. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking a time
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Driving while yours is in
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
What goes into a quote
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Looking after it afterwards
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
Before you drop the car off
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. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
How long it takes
Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover. Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens.
