    My car has some scratches near the headlights because of a parking incident. Here are the pictures:









    How will they remove those scratches? Will it be an entire panel repaint only? Or is it possible to repaint only that area?

    Please help. Thanks.

    Sir yun white mark kaya pa sa rubbing pero yun lumabas yun plastic di na kaya repaint na talaga. Touch up paint mo na lang dahil maliit lang naman yun gasgas.

    Saka not necessarily naman na dito sa area ko ung gumagawa.. What I need is a reputable car repainter talaga. Kung meron sa Ortigas Ave. or Taguig mas maganda pero kung may mas magaling na iba na medyo malapit lang naman, pwde rin.

    Please advise. Thanks.

    Doesn't look too bad naman. If you can live with it, wait until it accumulates more battle scars before panel repainting.

    Panel repainting also has its own cons. For example, if it wasn't really done competently, you'll have problems with off-shade wherein the repainted body panel is noticeably different in shade (not color but shade) than your factory paint.

    Yes but the thing is that I can't live with

    Any shop recommendations that can do this kind of job reliably?

    Ipasok mo na lang sa CASA, para kung meron backjob mabilis ang usapan.

    Let say ang matitipid mo ay 3K kung ipapagawa mo sa labas, pero kung magka problem ka later on ano ang value ng 3K sayo.
