Is it possible to sand down and repaint only part of it, or will I have to get both doors entirely repainted? It's not THAT visible but it sucks.

Pics tomorrow.




put the ding guards back on..

Pretty bent up. It would look worse with those things on

It's not that bad, I'm just real picky about my car. From 10 feet away you can't notice it but when you get close you can see the line of where the new paint stopped and the clear is starting to chip.

And the new paint looks like [censored]. Now I know why the whole one side of my car is orange peeled

Oh well, I'll figure somethin out

sand it all down, prep it so that the costs will be cheap when you want it repainted.

Sounds good. I'll look into it since I'm repainting my hood and bumper when I get a Mirko.

But here's the pics:
Right side, turned out spectacular




Then here's the left side. It's not bad at all but I hate it when [censored] like this happens. And see you can barely notice it from far.




I probably could leave it but I'm too picky

That sucks

That's weird he only told me he repainted the front quarter panel. Now that I find out he repainted the whole side.. I wonder what else was repainted Carfax was completely clean.
