Your LaCrosse and scratch repair
Your 2005 Buick LaCrosse and scratch repair: what to send us, what it involves, 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.
The car itself
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Booking the work
You can add a rental to the same request. 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 your week on track
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Add a rental to the same request as the work. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
When the car is ready
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in.
What to bring
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Why prices differ
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
Looking after it afterwards
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.

Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
