The work on your PT Cruiser
Your 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser needs scratch repair? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. 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.
Size and finish
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
What happens after you ask
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. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
A rental meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is ready. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
After the work
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
When the car is ready
Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
Pricing, plainly
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
A few things first
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Ask us
Send a request with the car and the work, and we reply with a price and a time.
