Message My CRP vert needs to have the trunk panels repainted. I'm trying to decide on just taking the panels to the body shop or taking them the whole car.

Pro for taking just the panels over:
I don't have to worry about the car getting over sprayed or vandalized.
Less labor for masking and/or labor
Con
May not be a perfect color match with the rest of the car, however it's usually the upper facing panels that fade before the rest of the car.

Pros for taking the whole car there:
They should be able to blend the paint in for a near perfect match
Cons, more cost, chance of over spray
Most importantly, I'd hate for them to ruin my new top, especially the window.


For those that don't know, the plastic windows get super stiff when cold out and can actually crack in half when lowering the top. Nissan even says not to drop the top when it's below 40 or 50 degrees.

What do you all think?

Alex
