The work on your RL

This page covers scratch repair for the 2008 Acura RL, and a rental while the car is with us. 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.

What your car means for the work

Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.

The request

Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.

Stay on the road

Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.

What to bring

Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.

What goes into a quote

For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match.

How long you are without it

We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.

Aftercare

Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
