car paint question (urgent)

[joe.p]

i would learn to live with it...it will always look off..sun has faded that paint to much for a paint shop to match it based off of the original paint code...yes there are a lot of great shops that can blend/fade the paint but it will still be noticeable on a car that old...fresh paint even when color matched still looks "fresh" compared to the older panels...

orgnez,IMHO i would have to disagree with photoguy having to live with it ,older cars get hit all the time and a good shop would have no problem doing a quality repair, I had my hood and left fendered repainted and they both match the rest of the car and my car is 12 years old with its orginal paint..

if the paint on his car isn't in the best condition then that wouldt become an issue.

IF thats the case.....a good shop can match the paint 90% and do the blending as i said before to make the side of the car uniform........very easy to an experienced painter and mixer.......

Gee, i was going to ask if it was blue, as light blues especially tend to have that issue.
Good luck with whatever you decide. It is still a very beautiful car. i do not know what to say, or what i would do....
