Paint touch up: the 1998 GMC Jimmy
The 1998 GMC Jimmy needs scratch repair? Send photos and when it suits you. 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.
About your Jimmy
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a price
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Driving while yours is in
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Why prices differ
Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
A few things first
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
Timing
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
When you know your dates
