The 2001 Buick Regal: Paint touch up
For the 2001 Buick Regal, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. 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.
Your Regal, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
The request
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
A rental while we work
We collect the rental when your car is ready. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
When the car is ready
You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in.
What to bring
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
Keeping it that way
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
Pricing, plainly
The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
Over to you
Want a quote? A request with a few photos is the fastest way.
