Booking the work for the X3
Searching for scratch repair for the 2012 BMW X3? Here is how CarmaCars handles it. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Your request
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
A rental while we work
Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Pricing, plainly
The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. We price the job before we start, never after.
Timing
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.
A few things first
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Ask any question you have before the work starts. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
After the work
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
