Booking the work for the Forester
Auto paint for your 2026 Subaru Forester? Start with a request; 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
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Getting a quote
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
A rental meanwhile
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Timing
Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
Why prices differ
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
After the work
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
On the day
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
