Default Which Should I Do First?!?!?!?!?

Ok so i have the choice to paint the whole car and fix all the faults on my car. But i have to choose which to do first. What im thinking is to fix all the faults first that way once i paint it it wont have different colored paint(well i dont know if that's what happens but i want the whole car too look perfect after all of this is finished). So my question is, does it matter which i do first?


Thanks,
David

Fix the faults, nobody likes looking at primer spots on the car. Unless your talking about pink rims or something, then fix that first.
