Your 2005 Kia Optima: the work
Auto paint for the 2005 Kia Optima: tell us about the car, and a person replies with a price and a time. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
About your Optima
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Your request
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
A car while yours is in
We collect the rental when your car is ready. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
When the car is ready
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
What affects the price
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly.
What to bring
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Want a price?
When you are ready, a short request books the work.
