The work on your Active E
Here is how we handle scratch repair for the 2011 BMW Active E: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. 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.
About your Active E
As a small car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
From request to appointment
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
A car while yours is in
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Keeping it that way
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
How long it takes
Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover. Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens.
Before you drop the car off
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
What goes into a quote
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly.
Next step
Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
