Booking the work for the WRX
For the 2016 Subaru WRX, rust repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
What your car means for the work
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Your request
Ask anything about the work in the request. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
Keep driving meanwhile
A rental means the work does not stop your week. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
What to bring
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
Looking after it afterwards
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
How long you are without it
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days.
What goes into a quote
Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.

Ask for a quote today; it is free.
