Paint touch up: your Sephia
Book scratch repair for the 1999 Kia Sephia with a short request, and rent 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.
What your car means for the work
As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. There are 5 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
What happens after you ask
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
A car while yours is in
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Before you drop the car off
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
After the work
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
Planning around the work
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens.
How the price is set
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. 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.
Let us know
Ready when you are: send the details of the car.
