Your 1500 and scratch repair
Book scratch repair for the 2016 Ram 1500 with a short request, and rent a car while yours is in. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
What your car means for the work
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Getting a quote
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
Need a car meanwhile?
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Why prices differ
We price the job before we start, never after. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
Getting the car ready
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
Looking after it afterwards
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
How long you are without it
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. A clear timeline comes with every quote.
Questions first?
