Your 2002 Saab 9-3 needs paint work? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. 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. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Booking the work
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Driving while yours is in
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Pricing, plainly
We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail.
After the work
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
On the day
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. 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.
How long you are without it
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
