Booking the work for the Ion
Need paint work for your 2005 Saturn Ion? Tell us about the car and when suits you. 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. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Getting a price
Ask anything about the work in the request. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. You can add a rental to the same request.
Stay on the road
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Add a rental to the same request as the work. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Timing
If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
After the work
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
Getting the car ready
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
What affects the price
If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more.
Ask us
A quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
