has anyone else seen this?! i have some paint damage, but NOTHING like this.

edit:
i just went outside and carefully looked at mine. i bet a clay bar and some rubbing compound would take care if most of my flair damage...

Hey Thirdgenbird, If you don't mind me asking how much is it costing you to get this paint job done? I was thinking about repainting mine sometime next year but I'm afraid of the price. Thanks in advance!

What the HELL is the point then? primer color with a bit of shine added to it is not worth that much money IMO, but im sure it'll look good nonetheless...

Looks awesome. BTW, what's up with that little bit of overspray on the tops of the doors? Why not just tape it off on the door edges.
