FAQ

How long will my car be in the shop?

Longer than the labor hours suggest. Paint needs time to cure between stages, and one back-ordered clip can park the car for days. Ask for a promised date and ask what happens if a part is late. Shops that update you without being chased are the ones worth booking twice.

Should I claim on insurance or pay for it myself?

Weigh the repair against your deductible and what a claim does to your renewal. For a scuff and a dent, paying cash is often cheaper and keeps the claim off your record. Heavier damage goes the other way. Ask the shop for both figures; most quote a cash rate and an insurance rate.

What should I look at when I collect the car?

Look at the car outdoors, in daylight, from a few steps back and then along the panel at an angle. Check the color from both, then the panel gaps and how the doors shut. Run a hand along the edge of the repair. Sanding dust inside the car and overspray on trim are worth raising before you sign.

Which body shops in Vista estimate for free?

[N_FREE] of the 24 shops say estimates are free. For body work that means a walk-around and a written figure taken from outside the panel, which can move once the car is apart. Photos sent by email get you a ballpark, not a price.
