Custom branded quote request forms for your panel shop
A branded quote request form your customers fill in themselves, photos and all, so your team can spend less time guiding customers through paper forms and more time on the tools.
A preview of the customer quote request form, shown in each shop's own colours and logo: Northside Panel & Paint, Coastal Collision Centre, Ridgeway Smash Repairs, Kauri Auto Refinishers.
Most quote requests still start with a phone call or a walk-in, which takes someone away from their work and requires the customer to catch you at a good time, often during their busy schedule. A branded online quote request form gives customers somewhere to go instead, and collects everything you'd otherwise ask for over the counter. For customers, it's a better experience without the hassle of driving the vehicle to your panel shop.
It's your body shop's form, with your logo and colours. Customers send the details and photos from their own phone, in their own time, and the request is ready for PanelGear's AI to draft a quote the moment the details are all entered.
From your link to a quote request
- 1
Share your link
Every shop gets its own link and QR code for its quote request form. Put it on your website, send it in a text message, or print it on a card at reception.

The customer fills in the details
The form walks your customer through their contact details, their vehicle, what happened, and whether it's an insurance claim. It's saved as they go, so the quote request lands in PanelGear even if they never finish it.

They add photos of the damage
Customers take guided photos of the vehicle on their phone, upload ones they already have, or skip it and add them later from a link we email them.

You get a ready-to-quote request
The request arrives with everything you'd normally ask for over the phone, ready for you and your team to quote, or for PanelGear's AI to draft the quote for you.
Built for panel shops and their customers
Your custom branding
Professional forms designed for collision repair shops with your logo and colours. Set a good first impression before the customer even walks in the door.
Offer extras while it's in
Add your own optional extras, like a cut and polish or an interior valet. Customers can select them while they're filling in the form, and your team sees it on the quote request.
Nothing gets lost
Every step saves as it's completed, so a customer who closes the tab halfway through still leaves you a quote request to follow up.
Customer forms questions
What customisations can I make on my Panel Shop customer forms?
You can change the brand logo, colours and optional extras on the form.
What happens to the optional extras a customer selects?
They're added to the quote request as a note for your team, so whoever picks up the job can add them to the quote or follow up with the customer.
Can a customer submit a request without any photos?
Yes. Photos can be taken on the spot, uploaded, or skipped. If they skip, we email them a link so they can add photos later from their phone, or come into the shop.
What if a customer starts the form and doesn't finish it?
The quote request is saved from the moment they enter their contact details, so you can see what's missing and follow up.
Do I need my own website for the form to work?
No. Every shop gets its own link and QR code that works on its own, so you can share it on your social media, business cards or panel shop window.
Can I stop taking requests when we're fully booked?
Yes. One switch in Settings turns the form off until you're ready to take on new work again.
