Auto paint: the 2006 BMW X3
Your 2006 BMW X3 and paint work: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Your X3, up close
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
From request to appointment
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
A rental meanwhile
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
A few things first
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
When the car is ready
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
What affects the price
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. We price the job before we start, never after.
After the work
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
Ready when you are
Send a request with the car and the work, and we reply with a price and a time.
