Paint Damage Question
 
I noticed a few weeks ago that my paint seemed to be "rubbed off" as if someone took hard rubber to the side of my car and literally rubbed the paint off. It's not a big spot its just in two places on my rear panel on the drivers side.

How much would you guess it would cost to paint? Since its such a small spot can it be spot painted? Or does the whole panel have to be painted.


I also have DR.ColorChip. Any idea if it could work? lol

a bit dirty and could use a wash, but you can see the bigger mark and a smaller mark underneath it to the left.

probably cost you a couple hundred dollars and a not so great look. blending can be done, but since its right there, you will likely be able to see the difference in paints at different angles of view. have you been using rubbing compound? polish?

Nope parked in the waaaayyyyy back of Costco one day and came out to that. Theres also a highschool nearby and the kids would've been walking by my car around that time after school let out. I mean, they'd have to go out of their way to get to it, but its still something I can see them doing.

Yea, I don't want it to be noticeable. I want it to look like how it was before :(
