Paint issue


My car is black. There are quite a few scratches, and a spot on the hood where the paint is all messed up. Should I just get the whole car painted, or can I get away with having someone just fix the spots that need it?

It's your money.
I would have the whole car painted personally.

Find someone who is actually good with a buffer. I dont know what your car looks like, but if its not that bad, save the money, get the whole thing buffed and polished. If it shines up real nice, you wont even pay attention to the scratches as the reflection blinds you!

Re ainting your whole car is not going to be cheap. it depends on how deep your pockets are and how much you really want to spend. I say just fix what needs to be fixed
