Paint touch up: the 2003 BMW 5 Series
Paint touch up for the 2003 BMW 5 Series: tell us about the car, and a person replies with a price and a time. 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.
Your 5 Series, up close
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
From request to appointment
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
Need a car meanwhile?
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. A rental means the work does not stop your week. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Getting the car ready
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
How long it takes
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover.
How the price is set
The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.
Keeping it that way
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
Next step
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
