The work on your M
Your 2004 BMW M needs rust repair? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your M, up close
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a price
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
A rental means the work does not stop your week. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Timing
Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
Getting the car ready
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
What affects the price
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.
When you know your dates
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
