Paint touch up: the 2012 Aston Martin DBS
This page covers scratch repair for the 2012 Aston Martin DBS, and a rental while the car is with us. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Size and finish
Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. There are 5 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. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
A rental while we work
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Aftercare
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
What affects the price
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
Timing
You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
A few things first
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.

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