The 1988 Dodge Shadow: Auto paint

Book paint work for the 1988 Dodge Shadow 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.

Your Shadow, up close

Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.

Getting a price

Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.

Driving while yours is in

Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.

Before you drop the car off

Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. 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.

What goes into a quote

The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.

After the work

Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.

Timing

Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
