Question about paint job Ok so i wanna get my ta painted car has paint that bubbled on the hood and paint chips on the from number and just a few scratches else where on it. Now would I have to get the whole car repainted or just get those areas fixed about how much would I be looking at for either one because I still wanna keepit the same color.
It all depends on the body shop you go to. When I had my drivers side rear quarter hit, the guy just fixed that area and blended the paint very well....this cost me $450 to fix. I think it might also depend on the color of your car and how worn the rest of the paint is.
This is before the body work:

It really depends on the condition of the rest of the paint. Chances are if certain areas of the vehicle are bubbling it is likely that the rest of the body will do the same at a later date. The GM black is actually tinted from the factory so it is not necessarily just a "straight" black, although with this in mind it is still not necessary to blend.
