Your 2008 BMW 1 Series: the work
This page covers paint protection film for the 2008 BMW 1 Series, and a rental while the car is with us. Paint protection film is a clear layer on the parts of the car that take stone chips, like the hood and bumper.
About your 1 Series
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. It is 4.36 m long. It fits most condo and driveway spots.
Getting a price
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
A car while yours is in
We collect the rental when your car is ready. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Aftercare
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Film is washed like paint; avoid aiming a pressure washer at its edges.
What to bring
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
How the price is set
A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
Planning around the work
A wash or a light detail takes hours; paint correction, film and coatings can take days. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.
