Painting, Bodywork & Styling

Colour-matched panel painting, paintless dent removal, wheel and headlight refinishing — handled by JustCars through our trusted master network and delivered as our responsibility.

Half the cars that come to us 'for paint' shouldn't be painted. Dents come out by PDR with the factory paint untouched, tired lacquer often responds to RestorFX — and factory paint kept alive is always worth more than a respray. We paint when painting is the honest answer.

Expert view

Expert view: when to paint, and when painting is the wrong move

Original factory paint is an asset — on inspection, at resale, in how the panel ages. So my first question is never 'what will it cost to paint this' but 'does this need paint at all'. A door ding comes out by paintless dent repair with the factory finish intact. Oxidised, dull lacquer often restores chemically with RestorFX in our Loulé workshop. A deep scratch through the colour coat, corrosion, or a badly resprayed previous repair — that is real paint work, and then it should be done properly: colour-matched, blended into the neighbouring panels, finished under inspection light.

Honesty about the queue is part of the expertise. A full exterior respray usually waits two to three weeks before we can start — good paint work cannot be squeezed between two washes. Two or three panels move much faster, typically four to five days. If a shop promises you a full respray by Friday, ask what stage they are planning to skip.

One technical boundary worth knowing: freshly painted panels need roughly three weeks of curing before any film goes on top. We plan paint and PPF as one sequence, so the protection lands on paint that is ready for it.

Common questions

Can you match my exact colour?

Yes. We colour-match to your car's code and condition and blend into the surrounding panels, so the repair disappears instead of sitting there as a patch.

Should I restore or replace a part?

Whichever is honestly right for the car. Yellowed headlights (from €125) and faded trim we restore; cracked or structurally damaged parts we replace. We won't sell you a repaint the car doesn't need.

Where is the painting actually done?

Bodywork and paint are handled by JustCars through our trusted master painters in Almancil and Loulé. You deal with us, we stand behind the quality, and the price is fixed after we see the damage.

How long will bodywork take?

It depends on the panels, the disassembly and the finish — we give you an exact timeline and a fixed price after inspection, never a blind quote.

What's the realistic lead time for paintwork?

Painting carries the longest queue in the studio: a full exterior respray usually means two to three weeks of waiting. Smaller jobs — two or three panels — typically run four to five days.
