Auto paint for the 2018 Ford Taurus
CarmaCars takes requests for paint work on the 2018 Ford Taurus, 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
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
The request
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. 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.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Aftercare
If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
Pricing, plainly
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Planning around the work
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner.
A few things first
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Ready when you are
