Booking the work for the Lancer
Searching for scratch repair for the 1986 Dodge Lancer? Here is how CarmaCars handles it. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Your Lancer, up close
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Booking the work
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Ask anything about the work in the request.
A rental while we work
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Why prices differ
A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match.
Timing
We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price.
On the day
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
Aftercare
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
