thanks for the recommendations for places to take it to! I will look in to it and see how much it will be...I may just have to consider leaving it though....if it's really going to be this bad all the time maybe I will just have to factor in repainting my car once a year to my car expenses and let it go for a while. Everyone keeps telling me to sell my car here but I love it too much!!! I am not giving it up!

I know of a very good paint shop in FLushing, Queens The only thing is, you needa be chinese in order for them to seriously work on your car ( Yes they are bias) but the quality of paint they do is remarkable imo.

Ahhh, sorry to see this Kristen. Have you tried posting in the New York area subforum yet? You might have better luck there.

Oh no, sorry to hear this happened to your car, I know it hurts.

I would take it to Lexus and ask who they use to fix the cars that get damaged upon arrival at the dealership. Who ever they take it to would know the best way to match the paint. And maybe if you tell them that Lexus sent you, maybe they might hook you up with a bit of a lower price since they do so many cars for them?

Looks like someone bit the car. I'm happy I don't live in NY and hopefully it gets fixed good.
