Auto paint: your Forte
Book paint work for the 2016 Kia Forte, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. There are 1 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
From request to appointment
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. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Before you drop the car off
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
When the car is ready
A clear timeline comes with every quote. Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover.
What affects the price
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
Keeping it that way
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
