Booking the work for the Spectra
Book paint work for the 2004 Kia Spectra with a short request, and rent a car while yours is in. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking the work
You can add a rental to the same request. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
A rental meanwhile
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
What affects the price
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.
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.

A few things first
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
