The 2012 Lexus ES: Rust repair
Book rust repair for the 2012 Lexus ES, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
What your car means for the work
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
The request
Ask anything about the work in the request. 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.
Keep driving meanwhile
While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
After the work
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
What affects the price
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. We price the job before we start, never after. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
A few things first
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
When the car is ready
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. A clear timeline comes with every quote.
Next step
A person reads every request and replies with the next step.
