Your 2008 Pontiac Solstice: the work
For scratch repair on the 2008 Pontiac Solstice, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. 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 Solstice, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Getting a price
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Need a car meanwhile?
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Pricing, plainly
We price the job before we start, never after. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly.
Aftercare
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
Timing
Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
Getting the car ready
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Talk to a person
Start with photos and a short description.
