Paint touch up: your Regal
Book scratch repair for the 2003 Buick Regal, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. 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.
The car itself
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What happens after you ask
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. You can add a rental to the same request.
Need a car meanwhile?
Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Before you drop the car off
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Keeping it that way
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
How long you are without it
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in.
Pricing, plainly
We price the job before we start, never after. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
Questions first?
When you are ready, a short request books the work.
