Your ES and scratch repair
CarmaCars takes requests for scratch repair on the 2018 Lexus ES, and rents you a car while yours is in. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Booking a time
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. You can add a rental to the same request.
Driving while yours is in
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
A few things first
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
When the car is ready
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days.
What goes into a quote
Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
