Auto paint: your X3
Your 2012 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.
The car itself
Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
What happens after you ask
Ask anything about the work in the request. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
A rental while we work
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Delivery starts at $0 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Planning around the work
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
What goes into a quote
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.
Looking after it afterwards
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
A few things first
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. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
