Your 2003 Acura CL: the work
For your 2003 Acura CL, scratch repair starts with a short request. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Your CL, up close
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
How to request it
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. You can add a rental to the same request. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Keep driving meanwhile
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
How long it takes
A clear timeline comes with every quote. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
Before you drop the car off
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Why prices differ
A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Looking after it afterwards
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.

Send a request with the car and the work, and we reply with a price and a time.
