Your 2008 Cadillac STS: the work
Searching for auto paint for the 2008 Cadillac STS? Here is how CarmaCars handles it. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
What your car means for the work
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
The request
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Keep driving meanwhile
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Timing
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
On the day
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
How the price is set
We price the job before we start, never after. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
Let us know
A quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
