Booking the work for the 500
Your Fiat 500 and rust repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
About your 500
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. 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.
How to request it
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
A rental while we work
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Add a rental to the same request as the work. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
What goes into a quote
The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Before you drop the car off
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
How long you are without it
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer.
After the work
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
Next step
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
