Collision centre: the 2013 Kia Optima
Book collision repair for the 2013 Kia Optima with a short request, and rent a car while yours is in. 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
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
From request to appointment
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. You can add a rental to the same request.
Stay on the road
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. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
After the work
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
Pricing, plainly
A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. We price the job before we start, never after. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work.
When the car is ready
Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
On the day
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
