Booking the work for the Corvette
Need scratch repair for your 1998 Chevrolet Corvette? Tell us about the car and when suits you. 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.
What your car means for the work
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Its length is 4.56 m, so it is mid-size. It fits most condo and driveway spots. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Getting a quote
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. You can add a rental to the same request.
A rental while we work
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
After the work
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
How long you are without it
We keep you posted if the timing changes. We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price.
Pricing, plainly
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. We price the job before we start, never after.
On the day
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Over to you
Send a request with the car and the work, and we reply with a price and a time.
