Your Regal and paint work
Book paint work for the 2003 Buick Regal, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Your Regal, up close
As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking a time
You can add a rental to the same request. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
Keep driving meanwhile
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. A rental means the work does not stop your week. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Getting the car ready
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
Timing
You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price.
Keeping it that way
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
What goes into a quote
The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. We price the job before we start, never after. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work.
