The 2003 Ford F-550: Auto paint
Book paint work for the 2003 Ford F-550, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
What your car means for the work
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
What to send us
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
A rental meanwhile
Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Planning around the work
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
Before you drop the car off
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
After the work
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
What affects the price
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
Still deciding?
Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
