Message	Remove the fascia and the gas tank door and take it to a body shop. Ask them to match the color to the door. Reinstall both parts yourself. I just had a lower lip done on my pearl VerTT last year. That is what I did. Blending on pearl can be a disaster. Since the pearl tends to accentuate all the lines and seams between panels, it is better to have a clean break between panels than to blend it into the fender. You might want to think about having them slap on the 3M film too while it is in pristine condition.
