Auto paint for the 2016 Subaru Forester
Auto paint for the 2016 Subaru Forester: tell us about the car, and a person replies with a price and a time. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
The car itself
As a compact SUV, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Getting a price
You can add a rental to the same request. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
A car while yours is in
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
What to bring
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Aftercare
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
How long you are without it
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
What goes into a quote
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work.
