Auto paint: the 1985 Dodge Lancer
Book paint work for the 1985 Dodge Lancer with a short request, and rent a car while yours is in. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
The car itself
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Your request
Ask anything about the work in 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.
Need a car meanwhile?
Add a rental to the same request as the work. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Keeping it that way
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
How long you are without it
Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it.
Why prices differ
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. We price the job before we start, never after. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
On the day
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.

Send photos and a few details, and a person replies with the next step.
