Booking the work for the 944

Paint touch up for the 1985 Porsche 944: send a request and a person replies with a price and a time. 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.

What your car means for the work

Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. 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.

How to request it

Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. You can add a rental to the same request. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.

Keep your week on track

We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.

How the price is set

Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. We price the job before we start, never after.

What to bring

Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.

Keeping it that way

A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.

How long you are without it

Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. A clear timeline comes with every quote.

When you know your dates

Book the work and a rental in one request.
