The work on your 3 Series
Your 2012 BMW 3 Series and paint protection film: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. Paint protection film is a clear layer on the parts of the car that take stone chips, like the hood and bumper.
Size and finish
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. NHTSA lists it at 4.63 m long. It fits most condo and driveway spots.
Getting a quote
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. You can add a rental to the same request. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Driving while yours is in
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Looking after it afterwards
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
How long it takes
We keep you posted if the timing changes. Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days.
On the day
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Pricing, plainly
Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
Ready when you are
Send a request with the car and the work, and we reply with a price and a time.
Request ppf
Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
