Rust repair: your LX

Here is how we handle rust repair for the 2005 Lexus LX: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.

About your LX

A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.

What to send us

Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Ask anything about the work in the request.

A car while yours is in

Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.

On the day

Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.

How long you are without it

Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.

Why prices differ

A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.

Aftercare

A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.

Questions first?

Send photos and a few details, and a person replies with the next step.
