When anything happens to me/my friends stuff, they all got like hardcore paintball guns and we go have fun //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif. By playing a game against each other of course:laugh:

I recently had the entire side of the van ('94) repainted, and you can tell a difference. Not big enough to really care about (after all, it is 12 years old), but it's a whole lot better than a three foot dent in the panel //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

if your paint was shit, like faded and oxidized they may of painted it all, but your paint looks fairly decent.

When I get around to buying another vehicle and this becomes my walled-off project, I'll let it get as ugly as possible...

yeaaa its a 95 accord and the paint is looking very shitty, so unless you have paint that have a vintage look to it, then your going to be able to tell. ill bein in 5 min with pics.

what they will do in your case is make a test panel to see how far the paint code color is off and then tint until it matches //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

no it's called blending.
any good collision shop has a painter that's capable of doing it. unless you bring it to some hack shop.

the first body shop i worked at, the painter training me called it the '7-11 test' which is basically if you work at a good shop like the one i did, after you fix the car you should be able to go to 7-11 and stand outside your car and ask people "can you tell me where i repainted this car" and if they say no, you did a good job.

after an accident you should never hear anyone say "oh wow, you did a good job repainting that fender" because if they can tell, you didn't do a good enough job //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

long story short, no, they will just repaint the surrounding area and blend it into the car.

X2 any shop can blend into ur car.. just make sure its damaged enough that they have to paint that side of the car instead of just replace it, some places like to do hack paint jobs just for the insurance companies
