The front bumper, back bumper, both rear quarter panels, side skirts are getting completely repainted.

While we're at it, I am getting a couple other things fixed as well. I have a few chips, nicks, and dents here and there. Might as well get it done.

You must have deep pockets to keep going back there. I finally got my quote

Just wondering... how does your autoshine kit hold up to daily driving? i.e. driveways, and dips.

The kit held up well. It got hit bumped into twice front and back and it didn't disintegrate but the paint was cracked.

Just some update. Since we are touching up various spots on the body, we decided to re-shoot the entire car in BASF clear just to ensure that the color matches

I'm pretty sure its not overspray.. mufflers are just shiny, so the paint is reflecting off them.

The overspray on the mufflers were from the first repaint
