Hi Guys

A good friend of mine is considering getting his 406 coupe resprayed... it's a beautiful car but it's got some bat sh!t paint damage he wants to fix...

the thing is the car is quite old... so the non-damaged panels have faded as well... he should respray the whole car right? just fixing certain panels will show up in colour difference won't it?

thanks

there are some painters that can color match very close to faded panels but if it's an older car might as well just get it repainted. costs somewhere $5K+ unless you go to some cheap place.
