Got some scratches from hitting road debris. 2014 GS350. Wondering if I should have the dealer fix this and what people recommend

Either way dealer charges way too much for body work as suggested earlier some pics would be helpful.

Find reputation bodyshop and they will take care of you bc most dealer doesn't have people to do body works.

Ok I'll take some pics after work. My concern is mostly with how it looks when finished. At least at the dealer I know they will use the right paint and amount of clear coat. They are very small scratches but still **** me off since I just bought this car this year

You may want to have a good detailer check it first before going to a paint shop as they may be able to touch it up or polish it out. It would cost a lot less.

Nah it's going to need more than a detail they are legit scratches and one chip

Are you sure the dealer actually performs the work? Most dealers contract it out to nearby body shops.

I know my dealer repairs paint chips and scratches yes. I called and asked but they wouldn't give me a quote without seeing it. My concern is that it is done correctly. I don't want it to be noticeable when finished because I decided to save a couple bucks at a local shop.
