Booking the work for the Spark
CarmaCars takes requests for scratch repair on the 2014 Chevrolet Spark, and rents you a car while yours is in. 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
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. There are 8 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Your request
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. You can add a rental to the same request.
A rental meanwhile
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. 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. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
How long it takes
Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
Before you drop the car off
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
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.
How the price is set
If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly.
Your move
Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
