Your 1998 BMW M: the work
For rust repair on the 1998 BMW M, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
About your M
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Your request
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Need a car meanwhile?
Add a rental to the same request as the work. A rental means the work does not stop your week. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
A few things first
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
Why prices differ
Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
How long you are without it
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
Keeping it that way
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
Ask us
A person reads every request and replies with the next step.
