Booking the work for the Premier
CarmaCars takes requests for paint work on the 1988 Eagle Premier, and rents you a car while yours is in. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a large sedan, it is a straightforward size for this work. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What to send us
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
A rental meanwhile
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. A rental means the work does not stop your week. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Looking after it afterwards
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
Planning around the work
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
What goes into a quote
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
Getting the car ready
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
