Your 2012 Acura TL: the work
For the 2012 Acura TL, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. 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
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. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Booking a time
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
Keep your week on track
Add a rental to the same request as the work. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
On the day
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
What goes into a quote
Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
How long it takes
You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
