Your 2004 Ford Ranger: the work
Searching for paint touch up for the 2004 Ford Ranger? Here is how CarmaCars handles it. 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.
Your Ranger, up close
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
The request
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
Driving while yours is in
Add a rental to the same request as the work. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Timing
If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days.
Getting the car ready
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
What affects the price
We price the job before we start, never after. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job.
Looking after it afterwards
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
Still deciding?
Send photos and a few details, and a person replies with the next step.
