Scratch repair for the 2005 Lexus LS
CarmaCars takes requests for scratch repair on the 2005 Lexus LS, and rents you a car while yours is in. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
About your LS
As a large sedan, it is a straightforward size for this work. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
The request
You can add a rental to the same request. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
A rental meanwhile
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
What to bring
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Looking after it afterwards
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
How long it takes
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days.
Pricing, plainly
Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work.
