The work on your Altima
For scratch repair on the 2008 Nissan Altima, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. 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
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
From request to appointment
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Ask anything about the work in the request. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Stay on the road
Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Before you drop the car off
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Looking after it afterwards
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
When the car is ready
We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
How the price is set
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. We price the job before we start, never after. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.
Ready when you are
Tell us about the car and the work, and we take it from there.
Request paint touch up
Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
