The 2003 Lexus SC: Scratch repair
Need scratch repair for your 2003 Lexus SC? Tell us about the car and when suits you. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Your SC, up close
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Getting a price
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Driving while yours is in
A rental means the work does not stop your week. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Looking after it afterwards
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
How long you are without it
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it.
Getting the car ready
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
What goes into a quote
The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
