Paint touch up for the 1998 Lexus GS
Paint touch up for your 1998 Lexus GS? Start with a request; a person replies with a price and a time. 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.
Size and finish
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. There are 1 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
From request to appointment
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Stay on the road
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Why prices differ
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly.
What to bring
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Keeping it that way
If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
Planning around the work
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.

A person reads every request and replies with the next step.
