The work on your ES
Scratch repair for the 1997 Lexus ES: send a request and a person replies with a price and a time. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Your ES, up close
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Booking the work
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Ask anything about the work in the request. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
A rental while we work
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. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
After the work
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
Pricing, plainly
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. We price the job before we start, never after.
How long you are without it
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.
On the day
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
