Your 1997 Subaru Legacy: the work
Auto paint for the 1997 Subaru Legacy: 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.
Size and finish
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. As a large sedan, it is a straightforward size for this work. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What happens after you ask
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
A rental while we work
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. A rental means the work does not stop your week. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Why prices differ
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match.
On the day
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Aftercare
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
When the car is ready
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.

Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
