Scratch repair: the 2008 Dodge Nitro
For the 2008 Dodge Nitro, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
From request to appointment
You can add a rental to the same request. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Need a car meanwhile?
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 meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
How long it takes
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens.
A few things first
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. 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.
Why prices differ
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.
Aftercare
If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
Still deciding?
Tell us what the car needs and when it is free.
Request scratch repair
Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
