Update

Took my car to a couple of autobody shops for quotes...$1000 or thereabouts. The paint is starting to lift in a couple of spots, so they need to fix that before it gets too wet up here. The paintless dent guys said they thought it was too big to do, and they wouldn't be able to do a good job, but they'd like a go at the small dings in my doors! Insurance for a hit and run...deductible goes up to $750...might as well not make a claim.

Cyn

PS The quote includes touching up and fixing the small scratch on the bumper where my son had a parking lot fender bender this week. SVX - Hardly a mark
Ford - Bumper messed up badly

Well, the car's all repaired up. I also got the peeling spoiler repainted. Pictures will come later when I get it back. The cost w/ the spoiler was $1168. The match is pretty darn good too.

From this:


To this:


The color matches very well, but you can tell that my car's clearcoat is slightly faded compared to the new paint. The guy said it should match better in 2-3 months as the paint cures more.
