Paint touch up for the 2002 Nissan Maxima
CarmaCars takes requests for scratch repair on the 2002 Nissan Maxima, and rents you a car while yours is in. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Your Maxima, up close
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a quote
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
Keep your week on track
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
On the day
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
Looking after it afterwards
If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
Pricing, plainly
The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
How long it takes
Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule. Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover.
Ready to ask?
Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
