Paint touch up: the 1988 Saab 9000
Searching for paint touch up for the 1988 Saab 9000? Here is how CarmaCars handles it. 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.
The car itself
As a large sedan, it is a straightforward size for this work. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What to send us
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Ask anything about the work in the request. You can add a rental to the same request.
A car while yours is in
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
What goes into a quote
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
When the car is ready
Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
Aftercare
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
A few things first
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
One more step
Tell us about the car and the work, and we take it from there.

Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
