Purchase

I've heard some sort of wet sanding or tricks to restore the hood on my car.
Repainting the hood is my last resort of the last resort.
I purchase the car not lease. Got to be some tricks out there...
Thanks, dude...

If its really bothering u and u want to get it repainted, take before and after pictures of the hood so u can prove to the future buyer that u got it repainted cuz of the stone chips and it was NOT accidented .


If its a lease, leave it as it is.....no need to get the repaint it, let the dealer take care/deal with it when the lease is over.
If u really want to get it repainted even if its a lease, do it who cares.......let the dealer take the hit .



Hope this helps
