The 2018 Lexus GS: Rust repair
Book rust repair for the 2018 Lexus GS, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Size and finish
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. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
The request
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. You can add a rental to the same request. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
Need a car meanwhile?
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Keeping it that way
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
What goes into a quote
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
Timing
We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover.
What to bring
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Send a request
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
