Paint touch up for the 1997 Suzuki Sidekick
Your 1997 Suzuki Sidekick and scratch repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Your Sidekick, up close
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a van, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
What happens after you ask
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
A rental meanwhile
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
How the price is set
We price the job before we start, never after. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.
When the car is ready
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
Looking after it afterwards
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
Before you drop the car off
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
