Booking the work for the RX-8
This page covers scratch repair for the 2009 Mazda RX-8, and a rental while the car is with us. 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
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Your request
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Ask anything about the work in the request. You can add a rental to the same request.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
We collect the rental when your car is ready. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Timing
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
Getting the car ready
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. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Why prices differ
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
Looking after it afterwards
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
When you know your dates
Send a request with the car and the work, and we reply with a price and a time.
