Booking the work for the Forester
Your 2013 Subaru Forester 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
A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. There are 12 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Booking the work
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. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
What goes into a quote
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. We price the job before we start, never after. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail.
When the car is ready
You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.
Looking after it afterwards
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
What to bring
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
