Paint issues
 
Hi guys, I am looking to eventually sell my car and I want to fix the paint up. I've got some chipping, scrapes, paint fading and my N literatly melted onto the car so I had to brutalize the area it was on to get it off...

Pretty much I am looking to see if I should get her resprayed or if I could fix this for cheaper either by myself or a detailer. Here are some pics.

Just looks like it needs a polish and a bit of touch up paint. i wouldnt drop 4-5gs on repainting it.

If this car matters to you, you can polish the panels that aren't missing paint, and paint the ones that really need it.

More than likely, if your polishing job is nice, then new paint shouldn't look too different from the og panels.


If it's your p.o.s dd that you really don't care that much about, polish and touch up paint.

Well I want to sell it, its not a PoS but it is my DD. I was thinking about taking it to a detailer I was looking around for rates and it seems it would cost me about 300$ to do the whole car. wash, wax, clay the works..
