Scratch repair: your 900
Your 1981 Saab 900 and scratch repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Getting a quote
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Ask anything about the work in the request.
A rental while we work
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
How the price is set
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
Timing
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.
Getting the car ready
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Aftercare
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
When you know your dates
When you are ready, a short request books the work.
