Default clear coat peeling.

I have clear coat peeling on my 2000 trans am.
Does anyone know where I can get it touched up? I'll post pictures of the peeling later tonight when I get home.

I'm in the Dallas area.

Any local paint shot. I would at least reshoot that entire panel and most likely any adjacent ones as well.

And by reshoot, I mean sand down etc.

I also have to look at either replacing this or getting it fixed. Some Douche at my school decided to beat on my car. i also have some nice dents on the hood because of the same guy.

And he's still alive?

I'd be able to hook you up, but I'm in Houston. The peeling panels need to be stripped, primed, and repainted completely to prevent further peeling.

Man that suxs, the whole quarter will need to be clear coated and the rest of the unpainted side will have to be wet sanded and buffed to blend in with the refinished part.
