Booking the work for the GS
Your 2007 Lexus GS 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.
Your GS, up close
As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What happens after you ask
Ask anything about the work in the request. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
A rental meanwhile
A rental means the work does not stop your week. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
What affects the price
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly.
On the day
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
How long you are without it
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
After the work
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.
Questions first?
Send photos and a few details, and a person replies with the next step.
