Booking the work for the GL

For paint work on the 1988 Subaru GL, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.

The car itself

A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.

The request

Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. You can add a rental to the same request. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.

Need a car meanwhile?

We collect the rental when your car is ready. 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. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.

Why prices differ

Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail.

A few things first

If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.

Aftercare

Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.

How long it takes

Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.
