The 2009 Saab 9-3: Auto paint

Here is how we handle paint work for the 2009 Saab 9-3: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.

The car itself

Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.

How to request it

You can add a rental to the same request. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Ask anything about the work in the request.

Need a car meanwhile?

Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.

Timing

We keep you posted if the timing changes. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.

Before you drop the car off

Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.

What affects the price

Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.

Aftercare

A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.

Get an offer

A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
