Booking the work for the RL
For your 1998 Acura RL, 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.
The car itself
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Your request
Ask anything about the work in the request. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
Need a car meanwhile?
Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Planning around the work
A clear timeline comes with every quote. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
Getting the car ready
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
Pricing, plainly
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more.
Aftercare
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
