Your 1998 Audi A8: the work
Collision center for your 1998 Audi A8? Start with a request; a person replies with a price and a time. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Booking a time
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
A rental while we work
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Aftercare
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
What affects the price
A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly.
How long it takes
We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
On the day
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
When you know your dates
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
