Frequently asked questions from Franklin Square drivers
What happens if I see a problem after delivery?
Bring it back. Workmanship issues are covered under the lifetime warranty — we re-do anything that doesn't hold up.
Can you paint a single panel without color drift?
Yes — spectrophotometer color matching plus blending the paint into adjacent panels prevents visible color line. The blend area extends just past the panel edge so any color variance fades into the existing paint.
How do I know if I need frame repair?
Any moderate or severe collision warrants frame measurement. Pulling, alignment issues, or uneven tire wear after a previous accident are common signs.
Should I repair before selling or sell as-is?
Depends on the damage and the vehicle value. Cosmetic repair almost always pays back at sale. Major structural repair on an old car often doesn't. We can give honest advice.
What if my carrier denies a supplement?
We re-document with photographs and OEM repair procedures, file a re-inspection request, and escalate if needed. Most denied supplements get approved on second submission.
