Your 2004 Saturn Ion: the work
The 2004 Saturn Ion needs paint work? Send photos and when it suits you. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
The car itself
As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What to send us
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
A rental while we work
We collect the rental when your car is ready. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
A few things first
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
Pricing, plainly
Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.
Planning around the work
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
