Who qualifies for a rental vehicle?

How soon after my vehicle has been painted can I wash it?
Your vehicle will be washed prior to you picking it up. If you need to wash it within the first month; we highly recommend hand washing with a clean microfiber rag and car wash soap to help prevent wash scratches.
The other driver has offered to pay for the damages. Is this OK?
If the other person offers to pay for the damages themselves, there is nothing wrong with that, but we still recommend contacting your insurance company about this arrangement. It is also important to note that estimates may change once the vehicle has been more thoroughly inspected and the person paying should be fully aware of this.
Will I be contacted throughout the repair process?
