The 2008 Toyota Highlander: Paint touch up
For the 2008 Toyota Highlander, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. 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.
The car itself
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. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What happens after you ask
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. You can add a rental to the same request. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
A rental meanwhile
While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Aftercare
If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
When the car is ready
We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
What affects the price
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. We price the job before we start, never after.
Getting the car ready
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. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Get an offer
A quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

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