Paint touch up for the 1998 Buick Century

The 1998 Buick Century needs scratch repair? Send photos and when it suits you. 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.

What your car means for the work

If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.

The request

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. Ask anything about the work in the request.

A rental while we work

Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.

How long you are without it

We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.

Getting the car ready

Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Ask any question you have before the work starts. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.

Looking after it afterwards

Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.

What affects the price

Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.

When you know your dates

A quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
