Yeh man, this is all coming out of my own wallet lol. This is a costly stupid night lol. The hood wasn't my fault, just going to be a nice touch lol. Anyways, I just want the car looking perfect. Money isn't the issue to me, just that it's done the best that it possibly can. You know what I mean

I think I'm going to need to get the hood repainted, both fenders, and the front bumper. Then from there have it blended into the doors. That's what I'm thinking is going to be the best way to go about it.

That's what I've been told, if anyone thinks differently let me know. And tell me your opinions.

I had to have my front fenders and front bumper blended to match the hood also.

I think it's similar, but not the same. Yours appears to have more flake in it. Plus, remember that they had several different versions of silver.

The cost of having it all matched may be more than it is worth.

To me my car being perfect is worth the right dollar. As long as it doesn't exceed 2500 to do everything needed I should be fine. 2000 would be optimal

A local body shop charged me 600.00 to paint the hood and do the blending.

They need to paint the bumper. I got a new one going on and need it painted. Need a new fender to go on too so that will be painted as well.
