Booking the work for the Regal
For your 1996 Buick Regal, paint work starts with a short request. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
About your Regal
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What to send us
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Driving while yours is in
A rental means the work does not stop your week. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
On the day
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Planning around the work
If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
Why prices differ
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.

Ready when you are: send the details of the car.
