Rust repair: the 2002 Lexus SC
Rust repair for the 2002 Lexus SC: send a request and a person replies with a price and a time. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
What your car means for the work
Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
What to send us
Ask anything about the work in the request. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. You can add a rental to the same request.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Aftercare
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
A few things first
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. 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.
Pricing, plainly
We price the job before we start, never after. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
When the car is ready
Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
Ready to ask?
Ready when you are: send the details of the car.
