Paint touch up: your 5 Series
Here is how we handle scratch repair for the 2000 BMW 5 Series: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. 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.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. NHTSA's Canadian figures put it at 4.72 m long. It fits most condo and driveway spots. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Your request
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Keep driving meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is ready. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Getting the car ready
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Aftercare
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
Why prices differ
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.
Planning around the work
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule.
Still deciding?
Book the work and a rental in one request.
