Rust repair: the 2012 BMW Z4
For the 2012 BMW Z4, rust repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your Z4, up close
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
The request
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 quote is for your car, not a general price list.
Driving while yours is in
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
A few things first
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
After the work
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
What affects the price
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly.
Timing
We keep you posted if the timing changes. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
