The work on your fortwo
Your 2008 smart fortwo needs scratch repair? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. 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
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a quote
Ask anything about the work in the request. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
A rental while we work
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
What goes into a quote
If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.
Planning around the work
A clear timeline comes with every quote. If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in.
A few things first
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Aftercare
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
Still deciding?
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
