Your 2006 Scion tC: the work
For your 2006 Scion tC, paint work starts with a short request. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a small car, it is a straightforward size for this work. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
How to request it
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Driving while yours is in
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Why prices differ
We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
On the day
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Aftercare
If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
Timing
Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
Ready when you are
Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
