Default need some advice about buying a hatch 94 vx with some body damage

94 vx teal 75k miles. the front bumper is scratched and faded and there is adent about the size of a basketball on the rear side underneath the rear window. I can get the car for 4500 should I go for it? I dont really like teal but I would maybe like to repaint it after getting the body damage fixed. Also, any sort of body repair/painting tips or shops (preferrably near seattle) would be appreciated. Sorry if this is a noob type question I did a bit of searching beforehand.

Seeing as how you want to do more than just fix tha damage and drive. You should either talk them down ALOT, or find another less expensive car.

I think you should pay a little more maybe but get a car that's already painted the color you want (so you save $$$) or in case you want some special flashy color, get it with some "normal" color that you'll be able to live with for the time being.
