Rust repair: the 1998 Lexus LX
The 1998 Lexus LX needs rust repair? Send photos and when it suits you. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
About your LX
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking the work
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. You can add a rental to the same request. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Keep driving meanwhile
Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. A rental means the work does not stop your week. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
How long it takes
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
Aftercare
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
Pricing, plainly
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.
What to bring
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Let us know
A quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
