Your M and scratch repair
CarmaCars takes requests for scratch repair on the 2004 BMW M, and rents you a car while yours is in. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
About your M
Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
How to request it
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
A rental means the work does not stop your week. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
How long it takes
Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
After the work
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
What to bring
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
What goes into a quote
We price the job before we start, never after. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
