    I really love my 02 but its getting a little beat up. I tried doing some touch up paint myself but it just don’t look great. Does anyone know if a service that is good at fixing scratches and chips without a full paintjob? I also have some dents that I would like pulled but I know a guy down here who can do that.

    I just contacted an old friend to see what his schedule looks like. When I here back from him, and he has time he can get some painting done, and air brushing as well. Shoot me a pm of what you need done.

    I just have a lot of little places on my hood and near the bottom of my car that shows metal in some places. it doesn't need to be perfect but I would like it to look a lot better if possible, all the paint shops in Columbus want to do is a full paint job :squint:

    I agree but I also have heard this guy was very reputable and some of the guys at the shop are buddies of mine.
