The work on your MX-5
Need scratch repair for your 2018 Mazda MX-5? Tell us about the car and when suits you. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
What your car means for the work
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Booking the work
You can add a rental to the same request. Ask anything about the work in the request. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Need a car meanwhile?
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
After the work
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
Getting the car ready
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Planning around the work
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer.
Why prices differ
Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.
Your move
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
