My car now is factory harvard blue and i am starting to get pissed off at it because of all the swirls, dings, scratches and just everyday abuse it goes through. So to make along story shot i called a local bodyshop that i used to work at and they said if i prep the car for painting and all they need to do is paint it that it would be $700. This to me was a deal because i have seen the work that comes out of this place and it's awesome quality. For those of you that live in CT it's called Guilford Car Care Clinic ( I give them
)

#9 just fills swirls. Get some DACP or something stronger with a rotary and a red pad, follow with something less aggressive like #82, then some glaze/wax. Takes a long time to do it right.
As per your car, its ghetto and old. Get something different.

honestly there is no helping my paint. The hood is already through the clear coat on the front and there is a large dent from a rock. The front fender has a nick on it and is starting to rust, the passenger side door has a huge scratch on the bottom portion of it and behind the drivers side rear door there is another scratch. To me it's just not worth it and I would rather spend some money on getting some new paint... Thanks for all the opinions though

What's so good about Championship White? Just cause it comes on an ITR or somethin? It's an OK color, but why is everyone and their mom painted their cars that color
I've seen a bronze-ish EG ferio and it looked badass, also unique
